Gather your crew and go head to head in a friendly culinary competition.
There's nothing like a little mystery and friendly competition to inspire collaboration and problem solving. In this hands-on team building cooking class, you'll work together to make the best possible dishes using a basket of surprise ingredients.
Chef Laura will provide a combination of familiar and eccentric ingredients (and professional culinary advice), for a fun challenge that your group will enjoy. Teams will make appetizers and main dishes to share so all participants get a chance to give constructive input and remarks of admiration for dishes they love.
Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Chef Laura was exceptional! She made my 40th birthday dinner something truly special. She was very accommodating to our group (which can be difficult when you have toddlers and young children). I would recommend Chef Laura to anyone considering a private dinner event.

Laura was AMAZING! From the minute she walked in, she settled all of our nerves and made the environment so relaxed and welcoming. During the process she not only cleaned up our space to make it perfect, but she brought EVERYTHING we needed. We started the process with a clean kitchen and at the end of the night she helped clean the kitchen again. The food itself was perfect. The cooking process was so much fun, and Laura was great at instructing us how to cook and prepare everything. She also provided awesome history and other cooking facts behind the food we were making. It was engaging from beginning to end and I would HIGHLY recommend using Laura for your next cooking/food event!

Amazing experience. Chef Laura was so great and she took time to give us techniques to use so not only was it a hands on but a great learning event. I appreciated learning new recipes and also the correct way to slice with a knife.

We really enjoyed our class with Chef Laura. It was a great way to spend an evening. She was professional but fun and very knowledgeable. The class was virtual so she set up her kitchen with multiple cameras so we could see what she was doing.

Many of the meals Chef Laura has taught us to cook have become staples in our house. She is incredibly knowledgeable and so much fun to cook with! I’m pretty skilled in the kitchen, but she always teaches me something new, and her recipes always have ingredients that are easy to find in any grocery store.

12/20/20 - Chef Laura did a virtual class for a small group of us that meet regularly. I'm an accomplished cook, but Laura managed to surprise me with some really good cooking tips to "up my game".
