$110/person includes the menu and the full signature experience of a Participatory Dining Experience at The Kitchen.
All tickets purchased are non-refundable.
Please note, our signature Participatory Dining Experiences are guided, experiential, and collaborative meal preparation and dining events. They are not a cooking class and you will not be taught complex techniques or how to prepare a full meal. Instead, you and 2-6 other guests will be responsible for preparing one recipe or course together in our communal kitchen before sitting down to enjoy your well-deserved meal. All cooking ability levels are welcome as our staff will guide you through basic safety and preparation instructions.
A full bar of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage selections will be available for purchase at the event. Our bar features both local and domestic offerings of beer, wine, and classic & signature cocktails.
We encourage guests to read the FAQs on our website or reach out to us with any questions regarding the experience. Please indicate any dietary restrictions in the checkout notes section and we will do our best to make a suitable substitution. If you are coming with a group and buying separate tickets, indicate their names in the checkout notes section and we will do our best to seat your group together. Please contact us directly for any changes to your reservation. Let’s get cooking!
