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.

I have made pasta, on and off, for many years but really don’t know the process in depth enough to comfortably teach my granddaughter so I signed us both up for Chef Sarah’s class. It was a great success. Not only did my granddaughter get an understanding, but I learned a lot more about the why and wherefore. Chef Sarah was a great instructor. Knowledgeable, thorough and patient. She was well prepared and helpful.

The location & setup was nothing like what we thought it would be. We left after 1pm when the class still hadn’t started yet. Disappointing
