Take your cooking to the next level with these classes and demonstrations. We pair you with awesome local chefs who will teach you the basics to the advanced in a hands-on class or if you prefer, you can watch as the chef amazes you with cooking techniques not often found in your usual home kitchens.

We are able to bring the chef into your home or we can help to find a suitable venue as well. Cooking classes can focus on technique & skills and they can also be themed, ie. Healthy Mediterranean Cooking, French, Italian. We will gladly customize the class to suit your needs.

Hands-on style: Our hands-on style cooking classes are perfect for those looking to hone in on their culinary skills. You and your guests will be the ones preparing and executing your 4 course chosen menu selections as our chefs guide you step-by-step through each recipe. Once all the courses have been prepared, participants will enjoy the fruits of their labor, served buffet style, along with wine or beer that has been handpicked by our chefs and in-house wine specialists.

Competition style (teambuilding):
"Chopped" or "Iron Chef" style
Your group will be welcomed by our chef and his/her staff and given a brief overview of how the activity will flow. They will then be divided into 2 teams. Each team will be given a basket of mystery ingredients and along with the available pantry and refrigerated items, they will work together to come up with a cohesive dish and then execute it (with some assistance from our professional chefs) within the given time allotted. Once the cooking challenge is completed, each team will present their dish to a panel of judges who will score on a number of criteria. Once the results are tabulated, a winning team will be announced.
While the teams are doing their activity, our chefs are preparing a scrumptious four course meal served with wine and/or beer that was pre selected for all to enjoy. 
This activity can also be conducted virtually.

Assemble your own mixture of friends, staff, clients or family members, then blend in tips, tricks, and trivia from an experienced bartender and you have a fun filled Mixology Class. We can spice things up with a bit of friendly recipe competition or make it a race to add excitement.

We pair you with an expert mixologist who will teach you how to craft a few of the classics as well as give you the chance to create a signature cocktail all your own.

Our mixology classes are a wildly popular event for good reason. It’s social. It’s casual. It’s interactive. And it just might go down in your event history as the best activity ever. We can transform your office or off-site venue into a “mixology lab” where your guests will learn to mix, stir, and swizzle with the pros as they absorb the finer points of cocktail creation. This event works well as either a freestanding activity or a precursor to a delicious lunch, happy hour or dinner.
