Whether you're planning a memorable date night downtown, searching for couples cooking classes near you, or simply wanting to expand your culinary skills from home, The Chef & The Dish offers live, private cooking experiences led by world-class chefs — right from your own kitchen in Charleston, South Carolina.

What makes our experience truly different is that your chef joins you live from the country where the cuisine originates.

From historic downtown Charleston to Mount Pleasant and across the greater Lowcountry, local food lovers are discovering a more flexible and personalized way to learn.

We couldn’t have asked for a better teacher. The food was outstanding, as was the wine and the company. Absolutely recommend this for anyone who loves good food and having fun in the kitchen.
