Discover your inner chef.

From the moment The Learning Kitchen was born, we knew we wanted our cooking classes to be different from others in the Cincinnati area. Each month we offer a class calendar for cooks of all skill levels, using seasonal foods that are locally grown when possible. We offer two kinds of classes: demonstration and hands-on.

Demonstration Classes Demonstration classes seat 20 students and everyone gets to sample the prepared meal. During a demo, students sit back and relax as the day's menu is prepared. Each student takes home a copy of the day's recipes.

Hands-On Classes Our hands-on classes are truly hands-on! The center of our kitchen is a cooking island equipped with 12 student stations and an instructor's station. Each student has two burners, pots and pans and all the tools needed to cook the day's menu. Our teaching chefs don't just tell you how to cook, you actually learn the techniques and recipes by cooking your own meal. From chopping the onion to sautéing the chicken to cutting the phyllo, you'll get to do it all—which really is the best way to learn. When the meal is complete, the class is seated in the dining area and enjoys their creations. All students receive copies of the day's recipes to take home.

Boutique Discount

Class participants enjoy a 10% discount in our kitchen boutique during and after class. The discount is only valid the same day after class.

All About Series If you want to learn all about some of the most popular main ingredients in cooking, this series is for you.

In each class, you'll learn how to buy, store and cook with each ingredient. The topics are: Chicken, Beef, Pork, Fish, Shellfish, Potatoes, Vegetables, Sauces I and Sauces II.

Kids Classes We believe that the family who cooks together has fun together! Children as young as 8-years-old can attend our kids classes and make delicious meals. We have classes designed for children ages 8-10, 11-13 and for teens 14-17. Check the class calendar for dates and descriptions.

Cancellation Policy

We require a seven (7) day cancellation notice for all cooking classes. If this notice is given, the class fees will be refunded by the same method your payment was made. We know that sometimes a last-minute cancellation cannot be avoided, so you are encouraged to send a friend in your place.
