What You'll Do

Make fresh pasta dough from scratch, then finish it with bright basil pesto sauce.

Fresh pasta changes everything and Chef Jimmy makes it feel totally doable in this hands-on cooking class. You’ll start by mixing a simple blend of flour and eggs to create a classic dough you can use again and again.

Then, learn how to roll it out properly and slice it into tender homemade pasta, using techniques that make a big difference in texture and bite. To complete the dish, you’ll prepare a vibrant pesto sauce with basil, olive oil and garlic, then toss everything together for a fresh, flavorful meal worth repeating.

Beverages are available for purchase to enhance your experience. Guests must be 21+ to attend.

Chef Jimmy was great however the venue was poor. Most cooking classes you are more involved and can see and hear the chef as they cook. Didn’t feel very sanitary in the middle of a brewery. Table was too short and hurt the back. Chairs were a joke. I do not feel the class was worth the money at all.

Chef Jimmy did an excellent job teaching us how to make Dim Sum Dumplings. The venue was sub par as it was in the back of a brewery and did not have proper work surfaces and seemed unclean. Jimmy did the best he could do with the area he had to work with.

This was a fun class. We learned a lot and enjoyed eating the sushi we made. Jimmy was a great teachet.
