Whether or not you aspire to be a chef, you can learn to cook like
one. The Sweet & Savory Classroom holds Chattanooga cooking
classes to teach you everything from basics like chopping skills to
classics like homemade pasta. Along the way, you’ll learn new skills,
share a few laughs and make a mess!
In these local cooking classes, you won’t find yourself stuck in a
chair taking notes. You’ll get your hands — and a provided apron —
dirty while making the dishes. Come prepared to participate, because
in most classes, you’ll be expected to do some of the prep work, cook
dishes on the menu, eat your creations and clean up afterward.
