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.

Chef Sarah made making sushi super approachable and fun! She was so warm and friendly, and a great teacher. I’d never made sushi before but felt like she explained the methodology really well, as well as proactively answering questions about sourcing ingredients and equipment. I feel ready and excited to host my own sushi party. Thanks, Chef Sarah!

Fun! I don’t know who’s responsible for the space the class is held but I didn’t love it. Seemed dark and a bit cramped. Good to see and experience some basic skills for sushi making. Sarah was great.
