Shrimp & Grits Night: A Hands-On Southern Cooking Class
Class Location: Southernish- 209 Stephen Street, Lemont IL
Join us for an evening inspired by classic Southern comfort cooking. In this class, you’ll learn how to create a well-rounded, flavor-packed meal featuring rich, savory, and fresh elements—perfect for entertaining or a special night in.
We’ll walk through essential techniques while preparing each dish from scratch, focusing on balance, texture, and bold Southern flavors.
Menu:
Drunken Shrimp & Grits
Crackling Corn Bread with Compound Butter
Collard Greens Salad
* This class is Gluten Free (The equipment in our kitchen is shared, and we are not a certified allergen safe or gluten-free environment. ), and can be adapted for vegetarian diners, please email [email protected] to request a vegetarian substitute at least 48 hours prior to your class.
In small groups, you’ll prepare a selection of dishes, then gather at a beautifully set communal table to savor the meal you’ve created—sharing good food, stories, and community!
Most of our classes are scheduled for about 3 hours, but every class is a little different. People work at different speeds and some recipes or techniques may take a bit longer, so sometimes a class may wrap up a little sooner—or run a bit past the 3-hour mark. We’ll always do our best to stay on schedule, and we appreciate your flexibility as we make sure everyone has a great hands-on experience
A few quick notes:

Menus are subject to seasonal availability.
In hands-on classes, guests may not personally prepare every dish listed.
Classes are designed so groups cook select recipes while learning techniques that apply across the full menu, and everyone will get to taste all dishes prepared.
Some classes can easily be adapted to accommodate dietary restrictions and food allergies, but not all.
The equipment in our kitchen is shared, and we are not a certified allergen safe or gluten-free environment.
All classes are suitable for those 18 years of age or older, unless otherwise noted.
