WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Oshawa
My friend and I had an amazing time with the 7-course Italian Seafood cooking class. Chef Vinutha is incredibly knowledgeable, explained every step clearly, and shared so many helpful techniques. The space was cozy, clean, and made the experience even more enjoyable. All the dishes made were absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone looking for a fun cooking experience!
My friend and I took the French Bistro cooking class and had such a great experience. The class was fun, engaging, and very easy to follow thanks to the chefs, who were patient, helpful, and made the atmosphere enjoyable throughout the evening.
The class was set for four people, and each pair participated in preparing different parts of the five-course meal, including a caramelized onion and tomato tarte tatin, bavette steak with mushrooms and red wine pan sauce, roasted smashed baby potatoes, French bistro salad, and a French soufflé. After cooking, each group shared the steps they took to prepare their dish, which made the experience interactive and educational.
The ingredients were high quality, the BYOB option was a fun touch, and overall it felt like such a unique and memorable experience. I would absolutely love to take another class here every few months to continue learning from such talented professionals.
Had a great time in this class, instructions were clear and easy to follow. Can't wait to try out what we learned and try different combinations.
We had a fantastic evening with Chef Mathieu. He is an excellent educator, a lot of fun, he provided information and opportunities to create something new. We gave him a few challenges with having a big age range from 12 - 60 and then added a Vegan and a gluten free client, he was able to manage all of it extremely well. There was a lot of food, fun and we all learned new things about spices and techniques for cooking. Thanks so much for a fabulous evening Mathieu. Highly recommend!

How much do cooking classes in Oshawa cost?
The top cooking classes are usually priced between $59 and over $100 per person, however, this is just a guide. The type of class you book might affect the price, as might the date you choose, with high-demand dates like Labour Day usually commanding higher prices. The number of guests in your party is another factor to consider, since prices are tiered based on group size.
You can get a rough idea of cost by viewing the per-person starting price on your chosen class’ web page. For more detailed assistance, you can contact our friendly Concierge team, who are always on hand and happy to help.
Who are these cooking classes suitable for?

What should I expect during a typical class?
Everything that you need to enjoy the class is provided for you. That includes all of the tools you need to make your chosen menu plus the full list of ingredients.
As for the skills you can expect to learn, those really depend on the class. You might spend the session rustling up a multi-course feast or one or two show-stopping dishes, depending on the complexity of the cuisine. In all classes, you’ll get to pick the brains of a renowned chef, learn new facts about world cuisines and sharpen your kitchen skills. And at the end, you and your classmates will get to sit, reflect on your learnings and enjoy a meal of your own creation.
What cooking techniques and skills will I master?
These are largely dependent on the class you take. Most classes will cover essential skills like knife-handling, ingredient preparation, seasoning and kitchen safety — the skills that no aspiring cook should be without.
You’ll also learn skills specific to your chosen cuisine. For example, in a sushi-making class, you’ll get hands-on with the traditional techniques and ingredients required to recreate your favorite sushi rolls. Likewise, pasta making classes will involve making, rolling and filling fresh pasta dough, before simmering delectable sauces to pair with it. You can get a better idea of the skills you’ll learn by viewing the menu and class description on your chosen experience’s web page.

Cooking experiences come with a host of benefits. Perhaps the most obvious is that you’ll learn impressive new kitchen skills before employing them to rustle up a menu of delicious new recipes. Another is that you’ll do so under the guidance of a renowned chef, learning their most closely-guarded culinary secrets and gaining interesting insights into the world of food.
The greatest benefit, however, has to be sharing the experience with your favorite culinary companions. Be they friends, family or colleagues, you’ll make unforgettable memories together over the course of the class, memories that are sure to last long after the final plates have been cleared.
What types of cooking classes can I choose from?
When choosing between the city’s best cooking classes, you’ll find that there are experiences for absolutely everybody.

Where do the classes take place?
The short answer here is that culinary classes can take place wherever you’d like them to! Would you like to learn at the chef’s own table? If so, there are hosts across the city who love welcoming eager epicureans to learn in their home kitchens. Simply check the map on your preferred experience page to see where the host is based.
You could also choose to host the class at home or in your vacation rental. Provided that you have a clean, functional kitchen in place, plus enough space to conduct the class safely, your chef will gladly come to you.
