COOKING CLASSES
Join the ‘famiglia’ (family) for some fun at our Italian style farmhouse kitchen for a cooking class. Classes are run by my mamma (aka nonna) and I, with the help of my daughters. Our family owned one of the very first restaurants in Northbridge when they migrated to Australia from Italy. They also owned & ran other very successful restaurants throughout their career. Home cooking is a huge part of our culture and Sunday family lunch with home made pasta was, and still is a ritual. Classes are hands on & run for approximately 2 hours with up to 10 students, and are designed to feel like a typical Italian family gathering. Come & enjoy an aperitivo with a glass of Italian vino bianco, an apron, take what you make, & taste your cooking in class. Eggs used for our classes are fresh from our very own chickens and spinach for the Ravioli is grown by my papa` in our garden using no nasties. We choose to focus on one dish in class so it is relaxing rather than hectic & students are more likely to make the dish again at home because we keep it simple. Sauces vary depending on the season.
*All of the fresh produce is grown in our personal backyard or from local suppliers.*
Classes cost $130 (Inc. GST) (unless stated otherwise). Children are welcome to join classes at $110 per child. Private group bookings, team building workshops & kids pasta parties are also available. Vouchers are available with a no refund policy.
To book or purchase a voucher all you have to do is send me an email: ciao@thelittleitalianschool.com.au
