Cooking Class: Middle-Eastern Favorites | Friday November 20 | 5:30pm - 8pm

Friday November 20 | 5:30 - 8pm

Spice things up with this hands-on class from Chef Ariel Voorhees of Gather Round Chef Service, where we’ll dive into the bold, vibrant flavors of the Middle East. 

You’ll learn to make crispy falafel, tender shawarma-style chicken, creamy hummus, and other delicious favorites that are perfect for mezze platters or weeknight dinners with flair. Along the way, we’ll talk technique, spices, and how to build balanced, crave-worthy plates. 

We’ll finish by gathering to enjoy the feast together because food is meant to be shared. Come curious, leave inspired, and bring these joyful, flavor-packed dishes into your own kitchen with confidence. Come hungry, and bring an apron and a container for any leftovers.
