Kids' cooking is all about fun at The Chef Upstairs. Children will learn the basics of food preparation, cooking techniques, healthy eating – but most of all, they'll learn how to create and enjoy great food. It's a hands-on entertaining and interactive learning experience.
There are themed clases and week-long camp sessions, such as for holidays like Valentine's Day, Easter and Thanksgiving too. Your budding little chef is sure to enjoy the world of "sticky fingers" can even earn a "Little Chef Upstairs" diploma.
The Chef Upstairs is 100% nut and peanut free. This means that everyone, from our guest chefs to our private corporate clients, must always adhere to this policy. We take pride in being allergy aware, so if your child has other allergies, be sure to let us know.
