Cooking Class: Classics From the Philippines
Dive into Filipino cuisine's comforting flavors in this hands-on cooking class with a talented chef.
With the easy-to-understand guidance of a skilled chef instructor, you’ll learn the secrets behind three beloved traditional dishes that bring the warmth of home-cooked Filipino meals to your table. Begin by mastering adobo, a slow-braised and tender meat dish simmered in a savory blend of vinegar, soy sauce, garlic and peppercorns for deep, rich flavors. Next, stir-fry a vibrantly colorful plate of pancit, a classic noodle dish packed with fresh shrimp, aromatic pork and crisp vegetables, offering the perfect balance of textures and tastes. To finish, satisfy your sweet tooth with crispy, golden turon, decadent caramelized banana spring rolls wrapped in delicate pastry and deep fried to perfection. Whether you're new to Filipino cooking or looking to refine your skills, this class promises a fun and flavorful great time.

I went a couple weeks ago with my sister's and we had a great time. The recipes weren't overcomplicated and can definitely beef replicated at home. Marc was a great instructor and did an amazing job at teaching techniques in addition toto the recipe and pivoted smoothly if things weren't exactly on track. I really enjoyed that you make a meal with other people then get the opportunity to sit down and eat the meal you prepared with them. It was a great bonding experience for me and my sister's who all have busy schedules. Although it was almost 2 hours from my home we will defintely be going back

Chef Marc V. is a fantastic teacher, who knows every detail of everything. It was our first time cooking Vietnamese and it turned into quite the feast. Since the class size is very small, we could really work on every step. Thank you for the experience!

Chef Camila made our sushi-making experience unforgettable! The quality of the fish was incredibly fresh, restaurant level, and you could tell she truly cares about ingredients and technique. Her explanations were clear, thorough, and easy to follow, making the process fun and approachable for my husband and I, regardless of experience level. On top of that, she’s extremely personable and genuinely funny, which kept the energy light and engaging the entire time. We learned so much, laughed a lot, and ate amazing sushi. Highly recommend Chef Camila for an outstanding, hands-on culinary experience!
