Raffetto’s palate cooking classes

Raffetto’s Palate cooking classes at the COMO are a fun way to learn kitchen tips and tricks the hands-on way! Join us in the COMO Kitchen with Susan Raffetto’s delicious menus as our guide. Each class will feature a carefully curated menu. Participants will cook in small teams and learn how ingredients work together to make flavorful dishes. After all the cooking is done, it will be time to taste!

Bring your favorite wine or brew to sip and enjoy growing your confidence in cooking and hosting. Must be 21+. Bring your own containers to take home any leftovers.

If you’d like gluten free options, we are happy to try to accommodate. Email o.popovacallahan@thecomo.org no later than noon on the Monday prior to class. We will let you know on Tuesday if we can modify the menu.
