Explore a world of brunch dishes with Chef Owner Kathryn Joel. We’ll begin in Spain with Pisto Manchego, a vibrant vegetable ragout served with perfectly poached eggs and finished with Manchego cheese, then head to North Africa for Shakshuka, eggs braised in a spiced tomato sauce. From Turkey, you’ll make Çılbır, delicate poached eggs served over garlicky yoghurt with a chilli butter, and we’ll make our own warm pita bread for dipping and sharing too. Throughout the class, you’ll learn essential techniques — from poaching eggs and balancing spice to building flavourful sauces — and gain the confidence to recreate these global brunch favourites at home.

Celebrate Mother’s Day with an elegant French-inspired spring lunch class, taught by Chef Owner Kathryn Joel. We’ll begin with Gougères, light, airy choux pastry cheese puffs, before making our own homemade Pasta al Limone with Asparagus. The main course is a classic Chicken Fricassée, gently braised and finished with a luscious pan sauce. Together with your mom, you’ll learn essential techniques — from working with fresh pasta dough to building flavourful sauces — and finish the meal with individual Orange Soufflés served with Crème Anglaise.
