Cooking Classes

Public classes are hands-on with full participation at individual stations, team stations, and the teaching station. Our instructors create a fun-in-food, hands-on, interactive learning environment. Students who participate in our public classes practice techniques, fine-tune skills, and prepare and eat the menu items covered in class. In our private group classes, students have a choice of a hands-on experience or a demonstration class to observe the instructor prepare and cook the themed menu for students to eat,.
