I’m looking for cooking lessons as a date idea. Does this exist?

Grand Bohemian has couples cooking and wine blending classes.

I’ve done two of the cooking classes here and I think it would be a great date idea. Get there about an hour early and have drinks at the bar first!

Sur la table?

I did this with my wife and we had a blast. We ended up being the only people in the class so that was a bonus.

It exists. If you're looking for a place to do it, can't help there. u/SushiJo runs some cool sushi making classes occasionally, which fits along that vein.

Thanks for the referral. Not sure about cooking classes. Birmingham Bake and Cook used to have them but if I’m not mistaken she’s closed her shop and mainlyndoes knife sharpening now. Sur la Table does offer classes all the time; check out their website for a schedule . I’d offer my services for a private class, but I’m leaving Tuesday for a month.

Hi. I would be happy to try to set up a private cooking class for you. I’m the chef/owner at Crestwood Coffee Company and have done a number of private dinners and classes. Shoot me an email, if you’re interested: [email protected]

Hey, would you be interested in doing this for a couple in the next couple of weeks?

I took a pasta cooking class as a date a few years back, thinking it would be pretty practical - what I didn't realize was that we would be doing the majority of the class literally making pasta by hand, which was cool, but not something I will ever be doing with any regularity (if ever). It was cool and fun, but wound up being one of the most expensive dates I've ever had when you added a bottle of wine, and simply wasn't worth the price. If you're going to do it, do it with something you know you'll do over and over again to help make it more valuable.

Damn I was thinking the other day a cooking class as a date would be awesome.

I had fun learning to make sushi with my date. Not sure if it counts as ‘cooking’

Probably have seen a cooking class on Airbnb experiences before

Soooo... I like the ingenuity but I am worried you have to do too much listening at one of these deals. Not just a ton of talking time. Is this a new relationship or established relationship? For established this should be fine. For a new relationship I think it has to be a two part date. Part one is the lesson. FYI, at Sur La Table that wasn’t a meal. You kinda snacked on what was cooked but you weren’t allowed to take it home. Part two you buy all the stuff together and cook what you learned. THAT would be a good date.

SLT classes are pretty expensive too, although they do offer a really nice variety. My class is good for first dates for sure, because it takes the pressure off while I'm doing all the talking, then it's fun and interactive when you're rolling sushi together. Best part? Built in excuse for date #2. I've also heard good things about GB, but if it were me, I'd holler at Camille, since she's offering you a private lesson.
