“I thought your kitchen was so perfectly equipped and set up and the food was very good and, of course, the wine! You will be seeing me again soon.”
Students work under the supervision of their instructor in the professionally equipped hands-on kitchen.
The School Facility
The school consists of a spacious, state of the art hands-on kitchen, private dining room and outdoor patio where the BBQs are located. One-day Saturday classes are normally capped at 12 cooks; five day culinary vacations are limited to 8 people; corporate/private classes can be up to 18 participants.
The kitchen includes top end professional home appliances, including Ultraline (Viking) gas cook tops, Bosch wall ovens and SubZero fridge/freezers. Smaller equipment includes Kitchen Aid and Cuisinart food processors and Henckels knives. Outdoor gas barbecues are Weber.
Work stations are set at three large butcher block tables. Cooks work in pairs with two teams per table. Each team has access to a gas cooktop and wall oven.
Bright and airy, the cooking school is climate controlled and features large windows that overlook a herb garden and BBQ patio on Strewn's beautiful grounds. The entire class enjoys their meal in the adjacent private dining room.
The school is located within Strewn>> winery, complete with onsite tasting room, retail boutique and OLiV tapas bar and restaurant (where you can also purchase gourmet olive oils and balsamic vinegars).
