What is Chef School? Chef School is for those who want to learn to cook in a more comprehensive, detailed format. If you’re a self taught cook, as most of us are, this course will help fill in the gaps and give you a full education on the basics of cooking and baking. Delivered through a 6 week course, once a week, with trained local chefs.
Our newest Chef School offering is now ready to release and we hope you’re going to be as excited as we were to put it together! This course sparked creativity and inspiration in all of us who worked on it, and it was just what we needed to get us through this latest wave of home time :)
