Most of the top cooking classes in NYC take place in either a premium third-party venue, the chef’s place, or your place. You may also find courses in which your chef instructor travels to a chosen venue or office space for onsite cooking experiences in your choice of locale. If the chef comes to your location, they will bring everything that is needed for the class from the equipment to the ingredients. Checking the venue image and destination map shown on each class page will clue you in on the location of the course, whether it's a baking workshop in Queens, a pasta lesson in Little Italy or a sushi class in Chelsea.
