bespoke menu

fall Bespoke menu

Bespoke classes last around five hours, allowing you time to enjoy each course without being rushed. These classes typically begin between the hours of 1:00 and 3:30.

These classes include three courses: a first course, a main dish with two sides (when applicable), as well as a dessert.

If you want a class based on my weekday two-course menus, I can help you choose options to create a three-course meal.
