Cooking Class - Italian With Southern Flair

What You’ll Do

Join Chef Kaia as you explore updated Italian dishes with a definite Southern influence.

Prepare for a journey into the incredible fusion of Italian classics with a Southern twist. This three-course meal is lighter than traditional Italian fare with added down-home flavor.

Usually made with zucchini or eggplant, fried green tomatoes step into these Napoleons for a delicious appetizer layered with mozzarella and greens. Substituting turkey for beef or pork makes this lasagna lower in fat without sacrificing flavor. Chef Kaia will also share her secrets to making perfect tomato sauce, as well as demonstrate the do's and don't's of chocolate-covered strawberries.

Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Kaia was inviting from the minute I walked in. Her restaurant is absolutely adorable and I loved the theme, it’s so playful! The setup for the class was perfect for a more intimate group or a larger one. The food was beyond reproach and the plating she showed was a lot of fun! Definitely an A+ for this instructor.
