04 — Cooking Classes

Hands-On Instruction, Built Around What You Want to Learn

Guests learning hands-on cooking technique with the chef

Interactive, technique-driven classes hosted in your kitchen or a private venue, led by a Culinary Institute of America-trained chef. Each class builds around one cuisine, one skill, or one dish — fresh pasta, knife skills, the perfect steak — with guests cooking, plating, and eating what they make, then walking away knowing how to make it again.

Available Formats

  • Hands-on group class (4–12 guests)
  • Private one-on-one or couples class
  • Corporate team-building (12–30+ guests)
  • Kids & family cooking experience
  • Themed pop-up dining and cooking event

Sample Class Topics

  • Fresh Pasta from Scratch — dough, shape, sauce
  • Knife Skills & Mise en Place — foundational technique
  • The Perfect Steak — sourcing, seasoning, cooking, resting
  • Asian Flavors at Home — wok technique, balance, umami
  • Sunday Sauce — Italian-American classics from scratch
  • Custom theme, built around what you want to learn
