Classes for every interest and skill level... If we can cook it and you can eat it, then there's a class or event for it at The Savvy Gourmet. Our calendar of events offers a buffet of fun, delicious and enriching activities, ranging from our social food-and-wine pairings to a knife skills class (though, for safety's sake, never the twain shall meet), featuring both specialized areas of interest, like our Demi Glace Workshop, or more wide-ranging themes, like our always-popular Dinner Parties Pronto classes.
