Cooking Classes
Join us in the backroom at the Tasting Room and Bottle shop at 70 Main Street in Delhi for an afternoon or evening of cooking, eating and fun. Our techniques classes take an in-depth look at all the processes, equipment, and ingredients chefs use to make great meals. Our hands-on approach will have you making pasta like a pro, sharpening your knife correctly, or making the perfect sauce. You are invited to purchase anything from the shop to enjoy while you're cooking. We'll provide lots of ice and glassware. Click to purchase your tickets and let's get cooking!
Please note that we can’t offer refunds to classes because our seating is very limited. If you can’t make a class, you can send a friend in your place. Email us at least six hours before the class starts and let us know who will be taking your place.
A note about our cooking classes: The Classic Chefs Series focuses on iconic dishes from Chefs that have fundamentally changed the way we cook and think about food. The chefs will not be at the class, only their recipes.
