WhatClients are Saying
"I’ve planned several team building events (and 2 cooking themed events in the past) and this was by far the best. My team had a wonderful time!"
Christine Morris
Microsoft

"Everything was great - the food, the staff, the mood, the service, etc. The best thing is that they handle all of the details - signing a contract with the venue, flowers, music, setting you up with wine/beer. I would recommend Parties that Cook to anyone wanting to host a cooking party."

Announcing May’s MVP: Mom!

This Mother’s Day, treat Mom to a deliciously fun hands-on cooking class in San Francisco, Chicago or Seattle with a gift certificate to the class of her choosing. Or join her in the kitchen and whip up a delicious gourmet meal at our Mother’s Day Cooking Class Brunch at San Francisco’s historic Ferry Building. You’ll sip sparkling wine, learn new cooking techniques and relax while you enjoy the fruits of your labor.

For an outdoor culinary adventure, guests at Mouthwatering Mission embark on a guided walking tour of San Francisco’s famous Mission District, followed by a hands-on cooking session at La Cocina. Other upcoming classes include Date Night at Chalk Studios, our newest downtown Seattle venue, Brews & Bites: Beer Tasting and Cooking in Chicago and our first ever Indian cooking class in San Francisco. We hope to see you in the kitchen soon!

Bon Appetit!
