Experience Details

Slow down, sip wine and master Italy’s most comforting pasta in this immersive gnocchi-making experience.

Hosted at a stylish local wine bar, this class with Chef Aaron feels like stepping into a rustic Italian kitchen — without leaving the city. You’ll start by transforming simple ingredients — potatoes, flour, eggs and salt — into tender gnocchi dough, learning how to knead and shape each piece for that perfect pillowy bite.

While your pasta cooks, you’ll prepare a deeply flavorful ragu from scratch. Dice carrots, celery and onion, simmer fresh tomatoes and enrich the sauce with beef, pork and a splash of wine for complexity. Chef Aaron walks you through every step, sharing insider tips on sauce building, timing and texture.

At the end, sit down to enjoy your handmade gnocchi coated in rich ragu, paired with the warm, lively atmosphere of the wine bar. It’s a cozy culinary escape that blends technique, storytelling and incredible flavor into one memorable evening.

What You’ll Experience

Trade your usual night out for fresh, pillowy gnocchi and a glass of wine at a trendy local wine bar. In this hands-on cooking class, Chef Aaron guides you step by step through crafting traditional potato gnocchi completely from scratch. You’ll mix potatoes, flour, eggs and salt into a soft dough, then knead, roll and shape each dumpling by hand. As your gnocchi gently boil, you’ll build a rich ragu from the ground up — chopping carrots, celery and onion, simmering fresh tomatoes and layering in beef, pork and wine for deep, slow-cooked flavor. Chef Aaron shares professional techniques for dough texture, knife skills and balancing sauces so you can confidently recreate the dish at home. Your experience includes hands-on instruction, all ingredients and a full plate of handmade gnocchi with hearty ragu enjoyed alongside the wine bar’s cozy ambiance. It’s comfort food elevated — personal, authentic and unforgettable.
