After our staff covers what each table will be cooking, guests split up among the tables to prepare one dish of their choosing. At the end, our chefs take over the kitchen, while guests return to the dining room and are served a delectable three-course dinner complete with an appetizer, entrée, and dessert.
Each Gourmet Class includes complimentary wine, beer, and soft drinks. Alcoholic beverages will be available until dessert is served.
