Tickets & Seating: Seating for this event will be in mixed groups of 6. If you wish to be seated with another group and are purchasing tickets separately, please fill out the event seating request form after purchasing your tickets. We will use our best efforts to accommodate group requests when notified in advance. It is often not possible to accommodate group seating requests at the door. If one member of the group can purchase tickets for all members, that is the easiest way to ensure everyone can sit together.
Demonstration Class Format: The Chef Instructor will demonstrate preparation of the menu in front of the class with a supporting video feed. The Instructor will pause after each course allowing for questions and interaction while the menu item is served to all guests. There is no hands on component to the experience. Each guest will be given a packet of recipes for the menu demonstrated and served.
