An Upscale Picnic

Description: Inspired by elegant garden parties but without the stuffiness, a modern, upscale picnic menu is a must for your next summer luncheon.

What You’ll Learn: We’ll discuss the tricks behind feeding a crowd with make-aheads, smart swaps, and cross-utilizing ingredients. Summertime favorites like Pasta Salad and Deviled Eggs get a few fresh twists, and are served alongside a hearty-yet-elegant Pan Bagnat sandwich for a crowd. We’ll serve up a fun Summer Punch, with endless flavors to customize for your guests.

Our Mission: Let our cooking classes inspire you. Work with our chef/instructor to learn how to prepare delicious recipes, hone essential techniques, and put some "heart" back into cooking. All levels of experience welcome! We offer private classes, private parties, and a bounty of niche gourmet food and beverage products! Contact cmVnaW5hICEgYnJhZGx5c2hnIHwgZ21haWwgISBjb20= for all private parties/class inquiries.
