No experience is needed- we provide all ingredients and equipment. Our classes are relaxed, social, and designed to be just as enjoyable for first-time cooks as they are for seasoned food lovers. Jump in and get hands-on, or observe and assist while taste-testing along the way. Either way, you’ll enjoy a delicious evening of cooking, learning, and great food.
The nature of our classes is set up so that booking parties will work together during class, sharing both ingredients and equipment. To ensure the safety and enriching experience of all participants, we require children aged 14 to 17 be accompanied by a parent or guardian during our cooking classes. Classes are intended for adults 18+. Drinks are NOT included in the ticket price. Guests who are 21+ are invited to BYOB (beer, wine, and champagne only). Please do not contact MIAM Cafe if you have questions regarding your class, please email hello@cocusocial.com with any assistance needed.
The cafe will be closed to the public when you arrive so you will have to enter the class by going through the shopping center. The door to enter the class is between the sign for MIAM Cafe and the ice cream shop. Please do not contact MIAM Cafe if you have questions regarding your class, please email hello@cocusocial.com with any assistance needed.
