What You'll Do

Prepare a scrumptious feast with Chef Bobby using one of northern Italy's finest ingredients: duck.

Few ingredients can rival the complex yet succulent flavors of duck, especially when prepared using traditional techniques from northern Italy. In this interactive class, Chef Bobby shows you two ways to prepare duck, along with several other Italian delicacies.

The class begins with a palate-cleansing arugula salad, then turns its focus to the main event: the duck. First, you'll craft an orecchiette with smoked duck confit before trying your hand at a delicately seared duck breast. For dessert, dig into a creamy zabaglione served with fresh berries.

Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Chef Bobby is the real deal. We booked his duck class for a night in, and it turned out to be such a good time. The food was amazing. Arugula salad with dried plums to start, then orecchiette with smoked duck confit, seared duck breast with a sherry-rhubarb demi-glace, and a zabaglione with fresh berries for dessert. Every course was excellent. We’re real foodies, the kind who seek out chef tasting menus and Michelin spots whenever we can, but we’re not cooks ourselves, so getting to watch it all come together at home and actually learn something was a treat. That’s the thing about Bobby, he kept it relaxed the whole time. Talked us through every step, answered all our questions, and made the technique feel approachable without dumbing any of it down. Great conversation, no pretense, just genuinely good company. He also put up with a lot. We had our toddler running around and two big dogs who don’t know how to be quiet, and none of it fazed him. He just rolled with it, which made the whole night feel easy and fun. Can’t recommend him enough. We’re already trying to figure out when we can book him again.

Chef Bobby is extremely talented and full of fun stories! The northern Italian duck 4 course meal was phenomenal and it was so fun to learn about the components and steps that go into making such a delicious meal. He was extremely communicative and punctual. We would highly recommend him for your date nights and dinner parties!
