THE FOODIE SCHOOL
Where foodie dreams come true!
The Foodie School
All classes include recipes or a class lecture packet, servings of each recipe prepared (to be consumed in class - no doggie bags!). You may bring your own wine or beer to enjoy with your meal. Seating and enrollment are on a first-come, first-served basis. If a class is sold out, there may still be room on our waiting list. With some exceptions, registration closes 8 hours prior to class. Payment is made at the time of registration.​
HANDS-ON CLASSES.
Be prepared to cook! Please remember to wear flat, closed-toe shoes, long pants, and comfortable clothing. Long hair must be tied back. Aprons and towels will be provided for your use in class. Students are divided into groups at the discretion of the instructor. Toward the end of class, you will be seated to enjoy your meal. Classes are limited to 16 students ages 16 and older unless noted otherwise; students ages 14 and older may attend with a registered parent or guardian. Students 21 and over are welcome to bring their own wine or beer to enjoy responsibly with their meal.
DEMONSTRATION CLASSES
Sit back and watch as The Foodie School chefs teach you how to prepare delicious dishes at home, but do all the work for you! You will get to taste each of the dishes prepared and ask questions! It's like a live cooking show. Students 21 and over, please feel free to bring your own wine or beer to enjoy
responsibly in class. Included in this category is our Sliced live cooking competition
where you will watch two Charlotte-area chefs battle it out over mystery basket
ingredients and get to try their creations.​

instructor. Students are seated at the end of class to enjoy the meal they have
prepared. Classes are limited to 14 students unless noted otherwise.
ARRIVAL We recommend arriving 15 minutes prior to the start of class. And come HUNGRY, you will be served a lot of food to be consumed in class.
ALLERGENS
While The Foodie School is not an allergen-free facility, we will do our best to make menu substitutions for you if you have an allergy (not all dishes may be able to be altered). No substitutions will be able to be offered without advance notice. Please alert us at least 48 hours in advance via the Contact Us Page. While we list the allergens for each class menu in the listing, chefs may choose to add items such as nuts or cheese to add interest to a dish. Please list ALL of your allergies and severity in your booking form even if it is not listed in the menu so the chefs can be alerted.
FOOD RESTRICTIONS
If you have certain dietary needs (such as vegan or vegetarian), please Contact Us before registering for a class so we can give you advice on which class will best suit your needs. Not all classes or dishes will be able to be altered. Please be mindful of choosing a menu that is closely aligned with your dietary restrictions (such as if you are vegan, please don't sign up for Butter, Bacon & Booze).
NO DOGGIE BAGS are permitted by law, so please understand the policy is for our protection and yours!! Don't worry, you'll eat plenty of food in class!!
