Master the art of pasta-making in this hands-on cooking class with Chef Kwesi. You'll learn to make foolproof pasta dough from scratch before creating two luxurious fillings.

Start out by combining flour and egg to form pasta dough. Then, Chef Kewsi will teach everyone to make two decadent, creamy fillings including an Italian sausage filling and a wild mushroom filling. Shape your pasta into stuffed tortellini, serve them in a luxurious cream sauce, and take your new skills home with you!

Chef was great! A little too large of a class size to get personal attention though. Fun environment & learned a lot!

Kwesi’s class was fun, informative and yummy ! Some people only know a craft but not how to teach it, he knew both. Would go back again!

Chef Kwesi was very nice and made the tortellini making class very approachable for all skill levels. However, without getting to know the audience at all to learn about our experiences prior to starting the class, for our table of 3 very experienced cooks, the class pace was very slow. It started a little after 7pm and we weren’t eating anything until 9:15pm. There were a few snafus during the class, such as forgetting some ingredients in the pasta dough, doing our cutting for us as our table became the demo table, splashing the pan of pasta water and oil on our friends lap, and Chef taking it upon himself to finish and “fix” our dish at the end, which ended up ruining the sauce we were excited to eat. Our expectations for this class were much different than what we received. We were surprised with the use of hard salami for the tortellini filling instead of Italian sausage as stated on the menu, we were surprised by the location - rolling pasta dough outdoors on old picnic tables was less than ideal, and we were very hungry by the time we actually got to the eating part of class. If we knew it was going to take so long we should have eaten before we came! Chef Kwesi is probably a skilled chef, but this class, environment, and his menu for this cuisine was not a great first impression.

Our cooking lesson with chef Kwesi completely exceeded our expectations! From the moment he arrived, we felt as though one our best friends was having a dinner party with us. Further, Chef Kwesi was incredibly knowledgeable on everything food, and our meal was outstanding! To say we learned something that day would be an understatement; I cannot recommend him highly enough!!
