We focus on learning new cooking styles and techniques to increase your confidence and enjoyment in your own kitchen. Here are a few things to know before booking a class with us:

• Each class is centered on the local, seasonal farmers and artisans of the Boston Public Market, so menus may change slightly based on what’s available the day of the event.
• Classes are usually between 2 and 2.5 hours long, unless otherwise noted.
• Please be prepared to be on your feet, standing at a table, and cooking for the duration of class.
