Corporate groups and private parties participating in our hands-on cooking events enjoy a welcome reception before dividing into smaller groups to cook and play in the kitchen. Each group creates a different portion of the meal under the guidance of our chef instructors.

When the cooking is finished, replace your apron with a napkin.  Relax and socialize while you enjoy your creations.

An LA Food Works Event includes:

*   An hors d'oeuvre and beverage reception on arrival.
*   Fun and knowledgeable chef instructors.
*   A private cooking and dining experience at charming venues.
*   Seasonal gourmet menu.
*   Chef aprons to use while you are cooking.
*   Recipe packets to take home.
