Step 2: Schedule your Consultation with Betty
Every class is customized to your theme and preferences. Schedule a call to discuss menu options, dietary needs, and event details. After finalizing the menu, we’ll confirm the time, location, and any special requests to ensure a seamless experience.
Step 3: Event Day & Time
Your chef will arrive 1–2 hours before guests to set up and prepare. During the 2–3 hour interactive session, the chef will guide you through every step—explaining techniques, preparing ingredients, and cooking in real-time.
Guests receive a detailed menu and recipes so they can easily recreate the dishes at home. It’s like having your own live cooking show—right in your kitchen, but without the commercials.
