Cooking Class: Epic Italian Favorites
Join this fun and easy pasta-focused cooking class where you'll learn to make a full Italian meal from scratch.
You'll start by putting together a fresh Caprese salad with ripe tomatoes, creamy mozzarella and fragrant basil. Next, you’ll roll out your own pasta dough and mix up a bright green pesto using spinach, basil and walnuts. And for the main dish, herb-roasted chicken, seasoned with lemon, rosemary, oregano and thyme. Then, you'll cool down with a sweet and tangy strawberry sorbet. By the end of this cooking session, you'll have all the confidence and know-how to recreate this complete Italian meal in your own kitchen once you get home.

Sarah was a pleasure to learn from. She's personable and her experience and knowledge in food and culture was on full display through her teaching. I learned more than I thought I would and am excited to make dishes I was previously intimidated to make. I would love to take more classes with her and would strongly encourage others to do the same.

Chef Sarah was super nice and I learned a lot from the two hr class. Pretty much every sentence she spoke contained helpful and new-to-me knowledge. The only negative to this class was that there was a loud jazz band playing nearby however we were able to mitigate the sound by partially closing a door between us and the band. I can't wait to try making sushi at home after taking this class.
