Chef Chris believes food brings people together. Chris lived (and cooked) in Italy for two years, splitting his time between Florence and Bologna. His hands-on classes share an authentic taste of Italy. All levels are welcome to join -- from kitchen novices to advanced home cooks. ((Classes are kid- and family- friendly)). Chris has taught cooking in San Francisco, Chicago and Atlanta.

I can't think of a better date night than getting covered in pasta dough and learning how to make ravioli from scratch. The food was delicious and the chef awesome.
Chris is the BEST! I left the class feeling like all the recipes were something I could recreate at home (I also left incredibly full!). I can't wait to make the pesto and homemade pasta at home ASAP. I encourage EVERYONE in Atlanta to take Chris' class -- not only did I learn a lot but I also had a great time. Can't wait to do it again!
This has been the third class that I have taken with Chris, and unsurprisingly, it was another winner!! The history about the region where the recipes originated in addition to the dishes themselves were incredible!! It is so much fun to cook with people as enthusiastic about food as Chris. Do yourself a favor and take a class :-)
Taking this class with Chris was one of my favorite things I've done in Atlanta. First of all, the food was AMAZING. It was simply divine - Chris is an exquisite chef. Further, the instruction he provides is very straightforward and clear, and I was even able to recreate it at home without feeling overwhelmed and anxious! That's huge for me, since I often feel very afraid of my kitchen. I highly recommend any of Chris's classes to anyone who is interested in picking up some more skills in the kitchen. Everyone who attended the class was friendly and supportive, and I felt very comfortable in the learning environment. I loved it!! Will definitely be signing up for another class soon
I learn what your needs and goals are and then cater the experience/lesso to helping you master the desired techniques.
I lived and studied in Italy for 2 years, learning from the best chefs in the country -- the mothers and grandmothers of my Italian friends. Since then, I've led hands-on cooking classes -- including fresh pasta-making -- in Chicago, San Francisco and Atlanta.
$50/per person per hour (classes usually 2-last hours). $25 charge for outcall lesson. Ingredients are not included.
I have over 15 years teaching experience -- including working with adults, children and young people both in the kitchen and in formal school environments.
I have taught elementary school children and adult learners. Whenever I teach, I bring a deep knowledge of cooking and an intuitive understanding of how people learn. My classes are fun, approachable and always learning-driven.
I taught a group of 10 people in Atlanta how to make "orecchiette" pasta and pesto from scratch -- kneading, shaping and cooking together.
Cooking is one of the things that makes us human. It should be fun (and tasty). There's no such thing as the perfect dish, so leave your "I'm-no-good-at-cooking" stress at home. Together, we'll learn to love the "jazz" of cooking -- fusing flavors, textures into a symphony of flavors.
