What can I expect at an Art & Soul cooking class?

 

Our in-store cooking classes take place at select Sur La Table locations. We’ve built kitchens designed specifically to be a learning environment. You’ll have a workstation equipped with the tools and ingredients you’ll need for each recipe, and you’ll taste a generous helping of everything you make. We will also provide you with recipes and "at home" instructions for all the menu items.

 

Class attendees will work together in groups of up to four at shared workstations. If you attend a class with a guest, you are welcome to share with that person.

​

Classes are 2½ to 3 hours in length unless otherwise noted.
