Sur La Table Cooking School Alpharetta

Tuesday, March 31, 2015

Sur La Table is known as a top notch chef supply store. But did you know that you can also take a cooking class there? Nestled in the back of the store inside North Point Mall in Alpharetta there is a state of the art kitchen where chefs teach students the culinary arts.

This was exactly the case Tuesday evening as students learned to whip up everything they need to throw a fabulous party. Chef Kyle Shankman started with desert first as students learned to make homemade, from scratch pie dough. Switching gears and as they blind baked the crust, students then worked on grilled marinated artichokes.

The smell of delicious food wafted around the kitchen as students took notes and prepared their meal for the evening. What better way to learn than hands on?
