Chef Kimberley is a cooking instructor who believes some of the best conversations happen while people are gathered around a table or standing at a counter with flour on their clothes. Her love of food is closely connected to travel. Wherever she goes, Kimberley is drawn to the markets, neighborhood restaurants, family recipes and everyday dishes that reveal something about the people who live there. For her, food is one of the most enjoyable ways to learn about a culture and connect with new people, even when everyone does not speak the same language. Kimberley brings that same curiosity and sense of connection to her classes. Her teaching style is warm, relaxed and approachable, with plenty of encouragement and a little humor along the way. She wants guests to leave with practical skills, more confidence in the kitchen and the realization that homemade pasta does not have to look perfect to taste wonderful.
