Skip the crowded group classes and discover a more personalized way to cook. If you’re searching for cooking classes in Minneapolis, MN for a memorable date night, exploring couples cooking classes near you, or looking to sharpen your skills from home, The Chef & The Dish delivers a live, fully interactive culinary experience directly to your kitchen in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

What makes our classes truly different is that your chef joins you live from the country where the cuisine originates. You might craft handmade pasta alongside a chef in Italy, master Pad Thai with a chef joining you from Thailand, or explore signature dishes from Mexico, Peru, Spain, Hungary, India, Turkey, New Orleans, and beyond. This one-on-one, real-time format offers a level of authenticity and personal instruction that traditional Minneapolis cooking classes rarely match.

From Uptown to Edina and across the greater Twin Cities area, home cooks are choosing a more flexible and refined way to learn. Instead of commuting across town for a scheduled class, you’ll cook privately with a world-class chef in a live session, building skills and confidence you’ll use long after the class ends. Transport your kitchen for the day.™

Lorraine Cardi Spack

We just finished our class of pierogi making with chef Agnes from Budapest. Both myself and my husband had a great time. What an easy experience it was. From the step by step preparation, set up of the on line experience and meeting with the assistant beforehand to go over everything was great. Chef Agnes made it simple and fun and the Pierogis are delish!. She even sent me some more recipes for other types of fillings. I received this as a birthday gift from my sister and I could not be more pleased. If you are looking for that perfect gift for someone, THIS IS IT! So many recipes to choose from. The Chef & The Dish did not disappoint. A big thank you to Chef Agnes for a great time!

Riley Dandy

The Chef & The Dish fell nothing short of phenomenal. Such a personal and authentic experience! Chef Carlotta, our lovely guide, showed us around Naples in such a beautiful way! 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. It made us beginners feel like total professionals. We will keep this with us forever!
