Overview

Step into the cucina for an evening that rewrites everything you thought you knew about Italian food. In this immersive cooking class, you’ll build a menu brimming with bold, regional flavors, guided by a seasoned chef who knows their soffritto from their salumi.

From the sizzle of center-cut pork chops draped in bright salsa verde to the delicate chill of zabaglione crowned with summer berries, every dish celebrates Italy’s deep connection to fresh, seasonal ingredients. You’ll roast garlic until golden for pillowy focaccia, slice citrus to dance with fennel and ricotta salata, and uncover rustic elegance in every detail.

Bring your favorite bottle, your appetite, and your curiosity. Whether you're a seasoned home cook or a curious beginner, this class promises an evening of laughter, learning, and unforgettable bites.
