Cooking Class: Middle Eastern Fusion Cuisine
The delicious flavors of the Middle East await you in this hands-on cooking class.
Join Chef Jeffrey for an immersive culinary experience, preparing a multi-course meal inspired by Middle Eastern cuisine. The class begins by crafting a homemade hummus tapenade made fresh with chickpeas, Kalamata olives and capers. Then, enjoy this creamy spread with fresh pita. Next, master the technique to make grilled portobello mushroom caps or traditional savory chicken shawarma. Enjoy it on top of toasted almond Moroccan couscous with charred pepper gremolata and currants and a tangy tahini sauce. On the side, enjoy a fresh cucumber salad bursting with red onions, grape tomatoes and feta cheese with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. End the meal on a sweet note with a rolled chocolate baklava with a white mocha crème sauce and a sweet cherry sorbet.

Class was rescheduled for a month and then instructor did not show up at all. No notice given. Then class was rescheduled the next day for another month later. This is unprofessional and fraudulent behavior. I would give an even lower review if I could.

No one showed. I waited 2 hours after being told by the owner he was on his way. I want my money back. No stars the websites would not let me pick 0

We had such a good time. He is so thoughtful in every way — the ingredients, the food handling, the pairings, the process, and the conversation. The food was amazing, and we eat a lot of food. We definitely want to do it again.
