How the Ravioli Class Works
The ravioli class is a fun, hands-on session where guests only need to bring an appetite and be ready to get their hands in the dough. The chef walks the group through rolling the colored sheets, spooning the fillings and sealing each ravioli so it holds while it cooks. The spinach ravioli carries an Italian sausage filling and is served with asparagus pesto, cherry tomatoes, Parmesan and olive oil. The beet ravioli holds wild mushroom, ricotta and Parmesan and is paired with a bright, creamy lemon sauce. Guests enjoy both plates together as they are cooked, so the tasting runs through the session.
How Many People Can Join?
The ravioli class at the chef's San Francisco location takes 10 to 60 guests. Ten guests is the minimum, which suits a single team or a small celebration, and the room holds up to 60 for a department or a larger company group. The class is priced per guest, so the total follows your guest count. Groups larger than 60 can book the version where the chef travels to your office or business venue, which takes up to 120 guests.
Where It Happens
This version of the ravioli class takes place at the chef's own location in San Francisco, a private dining room that is set up with everything needed for the cooking class before the group walks in. There is no travel charge, and the host does not need to supply tables, tools or a kitchen. Teams that would rather stay at the office can choose the version of this class where the chef travels to them instead.
Good Fit For
Companies comparing corporate team building cooking classes get a fixed two-hour format with one chef leading the whole session. As pasta making team building, the ravioli class puts every guest's hands in the dough from the first minutes.

Can the Menu Work for Dietary Needs?
Yes. Ingredients, recipes and menus for the ravioli class are fully customizable to suit preferences, dietary needs and the event theme. Allergies and dietary needs are confirmed at least seven days before class, which gives the chef time to plan substitutions for the whole group.
Planning Notes
Plan to book at least seven days ahead, since allergies and dietary needs are confirmed seven or more days before the class and reschedule requests also need seven days. The ravioli class runs two hours, which fits a long lunch, an afternoon block or an evening event. Classes may involve sharp tools and hot surfaces, and photos or videos may be taken during the class.
