Cooking Class - 5-Day Foodie Fun Teens: Recipe Challenge

What You’ll Do

Aspiring chefs expand their skills with five days of advanced kitchen experiences

This chef-led cooking series encourages food-loving teens to take on challenging recipes while learning advanced cooking and baking techniques. Building upon kitchen fundamentals such as food preparation basics, safety practices and teamwork, teen cooks explore global cuisines with traditional methods and tips from the chef instructor. Summer cooking classes develop confidence and culinary creativity while strengthening skills students will use for a lifetime. At the end of the series, students show off their new skills with a mystery box challenge, creating a custom meal using only the ingredients provided.

Classes typically run for two to two and a half hours, unless specified otherwise. Group work is a key component; kids can expect to collaborate with four other students. The class involves standing, cooking and active participation throughout. Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are required and long hair should be securely tied back for safety. Please note that these are drop-off classes. Parents do not stay during the classes.

This event is suitable for kids aged 12-17
