Join us for a night in Rome to learn the secret of creating Cacio E Pepe. This is a traditional pasta dish of the city of Rome. Cacio E Pepe translates to "cheese and pepper". In keeping with its name, the dish contains grated pecorino romano cheese and black pepper, together with fresh handmade pasta.
In this fun and hands-on class, you will be guided step-by-step through basic knife skills, how to roll and make pasta dough from scratch. You will also partake in making a Cacio E Pepe sauce to pull the dish together. Once you have created your masterpiece, you will then plate, garnish and devour your creations with your fellow foodies joining you for this delicious cooking party! You will gain insight on how to source fresh, seasonal ingredients and specialty spices in order to recreate the perfect Italian date night at home.
No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you do not already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who is happier observing and assisting (or taste testing).

Chef Megan has enjoyed cooking as a life passion which started when she was a little girl since dinnertime was the center of her family’s household. After working in elite kitchens in Napa Valley her enthusiasm for all kinds of cuisines sparked her interest to move back to Europe where she was born. Living in Paris, she learned the love for middle eastern cuisine. Returning to Sonoma County she opened restaurants alongside her husband that included a traditional French Bistro, gourmet burger bar, steak house, a Mediterranean concept and a concession stand with wood burning oven. Her belief is that food brings people together and cooking is an endeavor of life that betters the soul and body. She currently offers private caterings in San Diego.
