Experience the satisfaction of creating a complete seafood dinner from start to finish in this fun, hands-on cooking class.

You’ll begin by learning how to properly clean and fillet a whole fish, with step-by-step instruction on knife skills, fish anatomy, and techniques to maximize your yield while minimizing waste.

Once your fish is prepared, you’ll transform it into a delicious main course while also creating a complete meal from appetizer to dessert. Along the way, you’ll learn essential seafood cooking techniques, flavor pairings, plating tips, and timing so every course comes together beautifully.

By the end of class, you’ll enjoy the meal you’ve prepared and leave with the confidence to buy, fillet, and cook fresh fish at home.

PLEASE NOTE: Type of fish will vary! This class will also be held outside on a covered porch, please dress accordingly.

PLEASE BRING: A frying pan to cook your fish in, a spatula, and a sharp knife.
