About this Event

Step into the romance of Italy for an evening focused on technique, flavor, and shared experience. In this hands-on class, Chef Instructor Shawnie Kelley leads you through a curated Italian menu built on classic methods and clean execution. Dinner is served with wine in our Heidelberg Mixology Lab, adding a refined, social finish to the experience.
