About this event

The $150 price for this class includes TWO people and $75 is a single ticket. We are excited to offer this new monthly series. Grab a date, friend or solo and come ready for a good time! Learn new techniques and experience delicious flavors as you create and enjoy a multi-course meal from scratch. After you are done cooking, you will move up to the dining area and enjoy your meal with a glass of wine (included in the price) with your cooking partner and soon-to-be new friends. Chef Nico will have prepared a Caesar salad in advance to accompany your dinner. As our second-in-the-series, we are going to do an Italian-inspired meal where you will be learning to make the following dishes with Chef Nico: Steak Pizzaiola - The low-class Italians discovered the steak pizzaiola recipe due to the harsh post-war conditions they experienced in the 1940s, forcing them to take advantage of what they had. Steak pizzaiola, otherwise known as Carne alla pizzaiola, was prepared using leftover pizza sauce loaded with aromatics alongside pieces of meat. The name steak pizzaiola translates to “meat, pizza style.” Steak pizzaiola is an ancient Italian recipe prepared using thinly cut pan-fried steaks braised in tomato sauce. The sauce used in steak pizzaiola is thick, rich, and is super easy to prepare. Steak pizzaiola would be incomplete without pizzaiola sauce. This sauce is a special sauce prepared using tomatoes, garlic, virgin olive oil, oregano, and other seasonings. Chef Nico has veganized this dish to perfection using a Juicy Marbles steak. Be prepared for a flavor bomb in your mouth! Gnocchi - An Italian pasta favorite. The word “gnocchi” is derived from the Italian word “nocchio”, meaning “knot in wood”. Most Italian chefs will tell you about the secret behind the perfect gnocchi is the potato. Luckily, our Italian Chef Nico will be able to teach you this secret during this class. You will be learning the techniques behind making homemade gnocchi. Also, during this class, you will be creating a garlic cream sauce to pair with these pasta nuggets. This class is limited to twelve (12) people so make sure to sign up soon! **This is a hands-on class. Each person will have their own station to learn alongside with Chef Nico. An electronic recipe & instruction card is emailed to you within 72-hours after the conclusion of the class.**
