What You’ll Do

Learn essential knife techniques while preparing a seasonal gourmet menu from scratch.

Get comfortable with your chef’s knife in this engaging cooking class led by Chef Karen. You’ll learn how to hold your knife properly, keep it sharp and master key techniques like slicing, Julienne and brunoise cuts, all while prepping ingredients for a seasonal feast.

You’ll also practice mincing herbs, working with leeks and applying your techniques to a complete meal. Start with crispy garlic mussels in buttered crumbs, then braise tender chicken with sweet onions. Enjoy roasted vegetables tossed in pomegranate molasses dressing alongside a fragrant herbed rice pilaf. Dessert is a surprise—crafted to let your new knife skills shine. Come for the technique, stay for the flavor!

Chef Karen clearly has tons of experience under her belt! Her space is very well equipped and we got to learn new tips and techniques. The menu was great, giving us exposure to a cuisine that we weren't familiar with at all! It was truly a fun and enriching experience, would definitely recommend!
