About our Private Cooking Events

We offer private cooking parties for bridal showers, birthday parties, and even a girl’s night out. It’s not just a cooking class, but an exclusive culinary experience to connect with your friends, co-workers, family, and community. Based on your request, Passion for Spices will create your own customized menu and recipes to fit your desires. Our classes are aimed to not only teach how to cook but how to find the ease and delight in preparing delicious food from scratch. The chef instructor begins by introducing the menu for the day, and divides the group into teams to make different food items. The chef instructor and the assistant will work with the entire group to provide guidance and ensure proper food preparations and techniques. At the end of the class, everyone will sit down together and enjoy the full course meal that they prepared.


What To Expect
