About event

Come on out and have an amazingly fun time at this social, cooking class experience. Meet lots of other fun, friendly people while learning to make a fantastic & delicious dish! Couples and singles are welcome! Typically about 65% of the attendees are single so it's a great place to network and who knows... maybe even meet that special someone!

WHAT YOU'LL BE COOKING...

GNOCCHI WITH TOMATO SAUCE AND BURNT BUTTER & SAGE!

Done right, these pillow-soft dumplings melt in your mouth and vanish off the plate.

In this fun and engaging class, you will learn the tricks on how to make the classic dough recipe from scratch along with two classically Italian easy sauces. The first sauce is with tomato, garlic, parmesan cheese, and fresh basil. The second sauce is with burnt butter and sage. You will also learn all the techniques you need to ditch gluey pre-packaged gnocchi for good.

 No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen. It’s a fun and casual instructive class. An opportunity to meet other like-minded people. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting (or taste testing).

 If possible, please arrive 10 minutes early to check in. Drinks are available for purchase from the venue. Duration is 2 hours. You will work with other attendees in groups. The class includes your meal.
