Unlike many other cooking classes where guests have their own station and cook in a silo so to speak, when you cook with us, it’s all about collaboration. Guests cook together and eat together. And, it’s not just about cooking. You’ll enjoy meeting new people, and having interesting conversations and may even come away with some new friends. Yes, you’ll get cool cooking tips and learn how to make new recipes, but you may also find a great dog sitter, a hot job lead, or a new hiking partner. You just never know what adventure awaits for you at Cottage Cooking! Come see for yourself. We’re excited to see you walk through our door. Let’s collaborate!
To schedule your class, email: info@cottagecookingasheville.com or call 828-273-3096. We like the personal touch! Gift certificates available too!
