The Cooking School at Winvian
From a classic two-hour introduction class on classic pasta dishes or
delicious pastries and treats, to an in-depth six-week course, The Cooking
School at Winvian offers a class option for locals and visiting guests
alike. Dishes will evoke the feeling of
a cozy French bistro, Italian trattoria, or a friend’s vacation home in Provence. Guests will cook with herbs, salad greens,
and vegetables from Winvian’s garden.
The school aims to teach completely delicious, accessible and special
dishes that can easily be made by the home cook.
