Vegetarian Cooking Class (Winter Edition) | Wed Jan 22

About this experience

Some people still think that vegetarian cuisine is like "normal" cooking, minus the meat. But of course most traditional foods - especially from warmer regions like the Mediterranean - are plant-based. And thanks to the many regional cuisines within Italy, there's an endless variety of Italian vegetarian recipes to explore. 

During tonight's hands-on class we'll make some great cold-weather vegetarian dishes, with an emphasis on the freshest, most locally sourced ingredients available this time of year - winter produce like squash, fennel, fresh herbs and pears. And of course some pantry staples like house-preserved tomatoes, pulses and legumes.  

After we're done cooking together, you'll sit down at a long harvest table with fellow guests to enjoy the meal we've prepared together, served by our staff and chef.
