• Queso! Queso! Queso! - Kid’s Class

  For the love of Cheese!

  In this kid’s class we will celebrate the single most beloved ingredient in all comfort foods, Cheese!

  Whether you call it Queso (Spanish), Fromage (French), Cyse (West Saxon), Cese (Anglian), Kasjus (West Germanic), Chasi, (Old High German), Käse, (German), Case (Middle Dutch), Kaas (Dutch), caseus (Latin), Caise (Irish) or Caws (Welsh), cheese by any name brings a smile to kids of all ages. Join us as we make the all-time crowd pleaser Mac and Cheese (with a variety of extras!), the West Texas favorite Stacked Chicken Enchiladas, and of course, Hand crafted Pretzels with Cheese Sauce. Sure, it’s a bit “cheesy” but we like it like that! And you will too. This class is designed for ages 7-12, kids must be accompanied by a guardian. * Please, wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes and have long hair tied back.

• Pura Vida costa Rica

  Embraced by the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, and densely packed with Tropical Rainforest, Costa Rica offers a natural abundance of amazing Culinary delights, blended uniquely with a rich tapestry of Spanish speaking, multi-ethnic cultures and food styles. Come to “PURA VIDA”, and take a culinary tour of this Central American treasure with us as we prepare Fresh Fish steamed in Banana leaves with Mango Salsa, “Tostones” or Costa Rican patacones made from mashed fried green plantains: fried crispy golden brown and sprinkled with sea salt, Apepas with Spicy Black Beans and Cheese, and a tropical-South American inspired coconut Tres Leches Cake. * Please, wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes and have long hair tied back.

• Uptown Downtown

  Do you love the good old southern comfort staples, but want to be a little adventurous? Join us as we take those classic comfort foods and apply some upscale technique and ingredients to transform classic diner foods into a more refined gourmet dining experience. We will make Apple-Bacon Stuffed Pork chop, topped with an Orange Jalapeno Marmalade, served with Grilled Corn and Warm Bacon Succotash Salad. For desert a Peach and Brown Sugar Galette, and to cleanse your palate in-between, an Upscale Sparkling Hibiscus Lemonade! * Please, wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes and have long hair tied back.

• Donuts and Crepes-Kid’s Class

  Join us in this special Kid’s class where Dutch meets French in the sweet lands of “Café Decadence”, as we prepare Dutch Inspired fluffy fried doughnuts and Sweet or Savory French Stuffed Crepes. Assorted fillings and toppings are provided for the full Sugar Buzz effect! This class is designed for ages 7-12, kids must be accompanied by a guardian. * Please, wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes and have long hair tied back.

• Indian Feast

  Take a journey to the land of exotic spices and robust flavors that is Indian Cuisine. Learn to make the fan favorite Indian dishes Chicken Biryani, Chana Masala and Mango Chutney. We will also be making handmade Naan Bread to compliment and keep with the Indian dining tradition. * Please, wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes and have long hair tied back.
