About this Event
Escape to the sun-drenched coastline of southern France for a night of elegant, seaside-inspired cooking that captures the essence of Riviera relaxed and refined dining. In this hands-on culinary experience, you’ll prepare a menu that celebrates the bold, fresh flavors of the Mediterranean—think sun-ripened produce, briny shellfish, fragrant herbs, and a splash of good wine. Led by chef instructor Shawnie Kelley, you’ll learn classic techniques—from roasting and whipping to simmering shellfish in a fragrant wine sauce. Shawnie will demonstrate how to make fresh pasta and you will put together your seafood dish using housemade linguine. With the scent of garlic and herbs in the air and a glass of chilled rosé in hand, you’ll cook, taste, and toast to an unforgettable evening by the sea.
