Cooking Class: Unique Flavors of Chinese Cuisine

Discover the unique flavors of Chinese-American cuisine in this hands-on cooking class with Chef Jake. 


Learn to craft the iconic General Tso’s chicken—crispy, golden-brown bites tossed in a perfectly balanced sweet, tangy and mildly spicy glaze, then garnished with toasted sesame seeds and fresh scallions. Pair your dish with a savory and filling fried rice, featuring fragrant Jasmine rice, fluffy farm fresh scrambled eggs and colorful stir-fried vegetables. Elevate your skills by rolling and frying delicious sausage egg rolls, packed with seasoned sausage, cabbage and crunchy carrots for a perfect crispy mouth feel. To complete the experience, see what your fortune holds in a classic fortune cookie as a sweet finale. 


This class offers a fun and immersive journey into time-honored cooking techniques, giving you the confidence to recreate these bold dishes in your own kitchen.

My mom, sister, and I recently took Chef Jake’s Italian cooking class, which featured fresh pasta in carbonara sauce, green beans almondine, and tiramisu. Overall, it was a good experience — the meal turned out tasty, and Chef Jake kindly sent us the recipes afterwards since the exact ingredient quantities weren’t shared during the class. However, there were a few things that left us a bit disappointed given the price. The class is advertised as a two-hour experience, but we were completely done cooking and eating within an hour of the start time. We also didn’t end up cooking the green beans at all, and the slivered almonds that were supposed to be part of that dish were missing. Despite these small hiccups, we still enjoyed spending time together in the kitchen and learning how to make fresh pasta and tiramisu from scratch. We just wish the class had lasted longer and included everything that was advertised.
