Overhead quinoa salad with charred vegetables
Cooking classes · Monthly · Baltimore

Three hours, twelve seats, dinner included.

A monthly hands-on cooking class with Chef Maynard at our South Arlington kitchen. Cap of twelve so everyone gets a station, ninety minutes of cooking, ninety minutes of eating. $95 a seat. Wine and recipe pack included.

What we cover

Skills, not just recipes.

Every class is built around a single technique you can take home — koji aging, brine ratios, scotch bonnet handling, dashi from scratch, knife skills for fish breakdown, the right way to make roti by hand.

You leave with the skill in your hands, the recipe pack in your bag, and a meal in your stomach. Bring a partner, bring a friend, bring yourself. The seats sell out.
