 Our Commitment to Safety and Sanitation

For the comfort of our COOKING CLASS guests, we encourage guests to wear a face mask, if  more comfortable or if there is a remote chance of sharing an airborne virus.

FOOD TOUR guests also have the option of being masked or not. Patrons will be informed of any individual guidelines from partnering food establishments as needed.
