Cooking Class: Make a Rustic Italian Meal With Chef Sarah

Transport yourself to the Italian countryside with this immersive cooking class. 


Under the guidance of Chef Sarah, you'll learn how to make an authentic Italian feast. Begin with a refreshing Caprese salad made with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and basil drizzled with olive oil. Next, make savory bacon-wrapped dates and crostinis for an unforgettable antipasti. Stuff the dates with blue cheese and finish with a tangy balsamic glaze and a citrus arugula salad. Use fresh bread to make crostini topped with homemade pesto. For the main dish, make a creamy sauce with tomatoes, spinach and artichoke hearts to pair with tender chicken and orzo to make Tuscan chicken. On the side, rich brown-butter broccoli seasoned with garlic and lemon. For dessert, enjoy your choice of chocolate budino or panna cotta topped with seasonal fruit to end the meal on a sweet note.

Seems like it was her first time teaching this class so it was not that well prepared. People got to take their own filling so some people could take as much tuna as they want and there was not enough for the last few people. At the end I didn't get to try any fish at all in my sushi, I only had cucumber avocado and cream cheese in my sushi. I think it would be better if she portioned the material for everyone. The class was nothing like I expected and I was not doing any better in making sushi than I was before I joined the class. I think it was quite a waste of time and money, good thing I got the class with discounted price but I wish I had selected another class.
