In-Person Cooking Class
France and Spain share both a border and a world-renowned cuisine where grilled meats and stews are featured, often cooked with tomatoes and peppers. This is also the region known for its hams and sausages and where the concept of tapas (small plates) were invented. Tonight's menu is a mix of traditional and nouvelle cuisine that will tickle your taste buds:
- Regional Charcuterie Board (with champagne toast)
- Pintxos (Basque tapas)
- Braised Lamb Shank
- Crème Brûlée (baked custard)
