This Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday), engage in a hands-on cooking class where you'll learn to create Shrimp and Grits from scratch! Chef Laura will teach you how to make the classic Southern dish she learned years ago while living in New Orleans. We’ll guide you through the process, from selecting the freshest ingredients to perfecting the technique for creamy, decadent grits.

But that's not all! For our vegetarian friends, we’ll also provide a delicious alternative using navy beans and seasonal vegetables that capture the essence of this beloved dish without the seafood.

This low-stakes class is designed for every cook. Despite the fact that this dish comes together in less than 30 minutes, it has a showstopper presentation that makes you look like a professional. You’ll gain valuable skills, meet fellow food enthusiasts, and enjoy a delightful meal at the end of the session. Bring your appetite and your curiosity!
