Cooking Class: The Art of Southern Cooking Techniques
Transport yourself to the South in this immersive cooking class led by Chef Washington.
You'll begin by chopping onions and peppers to combine with kidney beans, pork sausage and rice for a savory appetizer to start the meal. Next, simmer shrimp, crab, chicken and rice flavored with thyme and cayenne pepper to make a seafood gumbo that is bursting with flavor. Whip up a traditional Cajun fry mix to coat catfish and oysters to fry until golden brown and crispy. Caramelize bananas with butter and brown sugar and top with dark rum and banana liqueur to create sweet banana fosters for dessert. Revel in your newfound culinary skills as you enjoy your Southern feast in this engaging cooking class.

This is a very fun and satisfying experience. We shared pleasant discussion while we produced and tried a variety of different tacos with unique ingredients. Chef Washington is very effective in demonstrating and explaining his process and techniques.

This delightful three-course ramen tasting with Chef Washington was such a delicious time (: You won’t leave hungry!! Don’t go in expecting a hands-on cooking class, the fun is in getting to know Chef and folks you’re dining with, and trying the scrumptiousness and adventure of Chef Washington’s ramen recipes. It’s a cute time! We did the experience at Obec brewing, and it was nice to grab a beer and have some ambiance around us.
