What’s more, every time you book a lesson you’re contributing towards one of our dedicated community classes, which teach essential cooking skills to those who need them most.

So what are you waiting for?  

Join us at the My Farmhouse Kitchens Outdoor Culinary Studio for a relaxed, fun and educational cooking experience.  The Chef’s Table includes an interactive demonstration experience, with a little something for everyone.  

​We encourage you to roll up your sleeves, and get your hands dirty with us OR just sit back, and enjoy the experience from The Chef's Table.  Learn tips and tricks from the pros, and later indulge in a multicourse meal with our guests.  And not the least, enjoy the way the kitchen is nestled by the beautiful nursery surrounding it making it a feast for the five senses!

Pssst ...  Did you know?

​According to psychologists, men who love to cook have a creative mind and for them cooking is an art and the art of plating and presentation matters a lot for them.  From crockery to dining set-up, they are the real-life perfectionists.

BENEFITS OF CORPORATE COOKING CLASSES
LEARNING THROUGH EXPERIENCE
​
Many business leaders know the secret to achieving success begins with attempting to accomplish something firsthand.

Throwing your employees into a kitchen and asking them to prepare a meal will seem easy to some and extremely challenging to others.  For those without prior cooking knowledge, it’s a great way to teach them a critical skill – the ability to learn through experience.
​
While our master chefs offer guidance, they also present intriguing curveballs to your company’s teams. Your employees will not only learn how to cook a meal but how to ask for help and how to adapt to their situation in real time to achieve success.

The best cook usually assumes leadership of a team, and even then, they know their success is dependent on the people working alongside them.  They must trust their teammates to accomplish the tasks they assign them, and their teammates must learn how to take direction and even ask for help!

​When it comes to teamwork and success, there’s a first time for everything.
