You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.

Chef Herve Mallivert takes you on a “voyage gastronomique” in this hands-on class highlighting the splendor of seafood. Your journey starts with a brief outline of the sea’s abundance, followed by a focus on flavor, advanced techniques, and the uniquely high quality seafood of the Northeastern coast. You will then transform one of the most iconic dishes from the Northeast – the lobster roll! – preparing it in brioche with avocado pudding, shellfish and horseradish cream, coriander salt, and seaweed chips. Next is monkfish (a Chef Herve favorite) cooked slowly sous vide and served with lobster dashi consommé, polenta cream, and fried monkfish bites.
Sharpen your shellfish butchery skills in Knife Skills 4! This hands-on class teaches you the techniques required to prepare a seafood feast.

You’ll also make succulent Shrimp Scampi and perfectly crisp Fried Calamari. Elevate your culinary confidence and impress friends with your newfound shellfish prowess!
