Get hands on experience inside the kitchen of one of South Florida’s best restaurants. Chef Allen and his team of Chefs will assist participants every step of the way. Each class begins with an introduction about the philosophy and inspirations on cooking. Depending on the size of the group, the group may be split up into three small groups. Each group session will focus on a different component of a dining experience. Each group will rotate while learning and interacting with our staff. The class lasts approximately three hours and provides an opportunity for students to work with one another while asking questions, learning new techniques and most of all, having fun with each other and Chef Allen! Chef Allen will personally autograph a copy of The Great Citrus Book for each guest.
