Cook Like a Chef, Dine Like Family
From the moment you walk in, we’ll welcome you with a complimentary glass of wine or a non-alcoholic drink. Additional wine is available for purchase on-site. You’ll start the night off with an appetizer and some casual mingling to get to know the others in your class.
Then it’s time to cook. Our stations are fully prepped with everything you need, and you’ll work in groups of 2–4 (don’t worry, we’ll pair you up if needed). Prefer to cook solo? Just let us know ahead of time and we’ll make it happen.
Once aprons are on, you’ll spend about 90 minutes cooking alongside our chef and kitchen team, learning, laughing, and maybe making a little mess. The final meal is a mix of your own creations and chef-prepared dishes, depending on what’s fresh, seasonal, and working best that day.
When it’s time to eat, we’ll serve you at our beautiful communal table on our enclosed patio, where you’ll enjoy a restaurant-style experience with all the charm of a dinner party.
