Lunch Classes
Crêpes (Also offered as a dinner class on March 23, early evening. See below.)
Like pancakes, but better. We’ll learn to make traditional French crêpes. Once you’ve mastered the easy flip, you can explore the endless flavor combinations that work with this delicate pancake. Our savory crêpes will include vegetables, optional ham and cheese. Our sweet crêpes will include fresh or cooked fruit. Meal includes wheat (flour), eggs and dairy (milk and cheese). Meat is optional.

- $15 per person, price includes all materials and lunch

Scratch Mac ‘n’ Cheese
No Velveeta here. We’re going to make a cheese sauce from scratch and create mac ‘n’ cheese as you like it — a little bit fancy or as classic comfort food. The basics of this roux-thickened sauce will come in handy for making other sauces such as silky gravies, sauce for lasagna or moussaka, pot pie fillings and potato dishes. Meal includes dairy (cheese and milk), but no meat.

Sushi (Also offered as a dinner class on April 18, early evening. See below.)
Why should sushi chefs have all the fun? We are going to put our knife skills to work cutting matchstick vegetables (and optional fish) and rolling our own sushi. We’ll talk rice and seaweed (nori), explore pickled ginger and wasabi, and practice thinly slicing avocado. Meal is vegetarian, but includes optional fish or shellfish and soy.
