Experience

Original setting: kids cook inside an active fine-dining restaurant rather than a dedicated teaching studio. Long-running program (since the late 1990s) means Chef Nancy's curriculum is well refined - dense recipe count per session suits older elementary and middle schoolers who can keep pace.
