Get ready to experience the unique flavors of soulful creole food in this hands-on cooking class with Chef Carolina. She will teach you a variety of dishes inspired by both France and southern Louisiana! You'll start by preparing the famous New Orleans fried dough delicacy, beignets, including chocolate, sour apple and crawfish flavors. You'll then cook up savory shrimp and grits in a spicy tomato-bacon gravy with fluffy cream biscuits, a creole vegetable omelet and a smoky potato hash with andouille sausage. You won't just learn how to prepare these mouth-watering dishes, you'll also learn the background and history behind each dish. Guests are encouraged to bring their own beer or wine to enjoy during the class and meal.

I took Chef Carolina’s Italian class with my work team last fall, and knew I wanted to do the Mexican class with friends for my birthday. It did not disappoint! Chef and her family make the experience so fun, everyone wanting to come back another time soon. Her backyard is also beautiful, such a fun place to cook. Thank you, Chef! See you again soon. :)
Though Chef Carolina's holds degrees from the Art Institute and Institute of Natural Food, her life-long love of cooking began at home. She learned the magic of creating authentic Mexican food from her mother and grandmother, which inspired her to create menus using natural and unprocessed whole foods. Chef Carolina now brings more than a decade of experience in the restaurant world to her joyful cooking classes.
