Our goal is to make cooking feel approachable and enjoyable for everyone—whether you're brand new to the kitchen or ready to sharpen your skills. Each class focuses on practical techniques, kitchen confidence, and nutrition, all in a welcoming space. It's a fun, affordable way to learn real cooking skills without the pressure or high costs.
I started these classes because I want to help all people feel confident in the kitchen—from curious pre-teens who love to experiment with food to teens and adults learning to cook and provide for themselves. Too often, we grow up relying on fast food that’s expensive and not always nutritious. Also, with so many busy working parents, it’s easy for home cooked meals to fall by the wayside, not because they don’t care, but because life gets hectic, and I get it because I’ve been there!
My classes teach more than just following recipes. They’re about learning real skills, developing your own food palette, using fresh ingredients, and discovering how fun and rewarding cooking can be. Whether you’re just getting started or want to level up your kitchen game, I’ll meet you where you are-any age, any skill level.
Starting young helps build confidence and healthy habits that last. Cooking shouldn’t be stressful, it should be a way to take care of yourself, get creative, grow in your skills, and feel more confident. Figuring out life can be tough enough, but it’s a lot easier when you know your way around a kitchen.
Hi! I’m Chef Katie, a lifelong food lover and passionate teacher. I’ve been in the food industry since I was 15, and that passion has only grown over the past 25 years.
I earned my culinary and entrepreneurship degree from Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts, ranked among the top culinary schools in the world.

Even as a kid, I loved to teach, gathering neighborhood friends to play “school” was my favorite thing. Now, I get to combine my love of food and teaching through hands-on cooking classes for all ages.
My husband and I have five daughters (yes, including twins!), and we spend a lot of time cooking together as a family.

Not always. We offer a wide variety of classes or multi-day courses. If you'd like something specific, just ask, we'd be happy to cook-up something new!
We accept all major credit cards (some come with fees), Venmo (preferred), and Paypal. Once registered, we will contact you for payment to hold your spot(s).
While class fees are generally non-refundable, we aim to stay flexible and handle things on a case-by-case basis. When possible, we'll gladly apply your payment toward another class date or time that works for you.
Pricing varies depending on the type of class, group size, and whether it includes extras like tool kits or take-home meals. Most classes range from $30–$60 per person. Private sessions and specialty events may differ, just let me know what you're looking for.
We don’t have set discounts for groups or siblings since most classes are age-specific, but we always try to be flexible, especially for returning students or families enrolling more than one child. If you're signing up for multiple sessions or have a special request, just reach out. We're happy to see what we can work out.
At the moment, all classes are hosted in my kitchen so we can provide everything needed for a smooth and safe experience. We're not offering in-home lessons right now, but it’s something we may consider in the future.
Not exactly. While some classes like Date Nights or International Cuisine are one-time experiences, others are multi-day or even part of a series. For example, we offer 3-day workshops and rotating weekly classes like the Health & Nutrition series, which includes 5 different recipes over time. Whether you're looking for a single session or something more ongoing, there’s likely an option that fits your schedule and goals.
We like to stay in communication with our students. If you have any questions or special requests, just let us know.
