Team Building Activity: Farm-to-Table Italian Fare

As you cook with Chef Landi, you'll discover how to enhance the natural flavors of fresh vegetables and fruit while polishing your knife skills. To begin this cooking class, Chef Landi will demonstrate professional techniques for peeling, slicing and dicing vegetables. You'll use those vegetables to craft a minestrone soup brimming Italian herbs and Parmesan. You'll also learn to cook a classic chicken Marsala with pasta you've made by hand.

My sister and I had a great time with Chef Landi! We learned a lot about making bolognese sauce and gnocchi from scratch! So much fun!

What a lovely night out to learn how to make a three course meal with Chef Landi! He was so patient and a great teacher. His love for food is contagious as we definitely caught the food bug! It felt like we were in a different country and we had such a great time. The food was also amazing and was even better because we helped make it. Would 10/10 recommend Chef Landi for a fun night out!
