Cooking Class - Fresh Italian Fare

Master the art of preparing classic Italian dishes while elevating your cooking skills.

In this hands-on class with Chef Vanessa, you'll learn how to cook a traditional three-course Italian meal using high-quality ingredients and professional cooking techniques.

Begin the class by putting a spin on a classic risotto by handcrafting risotto cakes with cannellini beans, Parmesan cheese and a touch of lemon zest. Next, you'll make homemade linguine pasta served with sautéed shrimp and sun-dried tomato pesto. Finally, Chef Vanessa will teach you how to prepare homemade pizzelle cookies for dessert — an iconic Italian favorite!

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

This was so much fun! I planned this as a surprise date night for my husband and he loved it! Chef Vanessa was so friendly and a great instructor. All 3 dishes we made were so good! We’re excited to make these dishes for our family.
