Description

Invest a little time in adding these updated versions of classic Southern dishes to your repertoire. Working with a small team, you'll poach shrimp in a spicy sauce; fry sweet tea-brined chicken to golden brown; roast vegetables; whip up a lighter version of cheese grits; and create a flaky pie dough for a tart and creamy dessert. 

For ages 18 + up. 21 or older? You'll enjoy a glass of wine paired with your meal at the end of class.



Menu
  • Creole Barbecued Shrimp

  • Perfect Fried Chicken

  • Cheese Grits Souffle

  • Roasted Okra with Field Peas, Tomatoes & Mint

  • Buttermilk Tart with Berries


Safety & Precautions

  • At check-in, you will be asked to sign a waiver before entering the Cooking School.

  • For that reason, we ask that all attendees arrive at least 5 minutes prior to the confirmed start time of the class.
