Class Size, Length & Descriptions

• A minimum of 6 participants is required for each class.  If a class does not meet the minimum number, it may be postponed or cancelled with refunds offered to registered participants.

• While instructors do everything possible to accomplish everything they've scheduled for a class, there will be times, especially with kids classes, that not everything can be completed. Therefore, all class curriculum is based on "Time Permitted".

• The majority of adult and kid’s classes are hands-on cooking classes, which means each participant will have their own cooking station, knives and other cookware, as well as ingredients. Occasionally, participants may need to share ingredients and/or tools and equipment with classmates.

• Chef Demonstrations are where the chef discusses and serves dishes he or she has made. This is not a cooking class. Participants sit and watch food that is being cooked in front of them.

​
