From sizzling tacos and golden empanadas to creamy cheesecake bites and soft, salty pretzels, you’ll learn how to recreate the kind of bold, satisfying dishes you’d find from food trucks and market stalls across the five boroughs.
The menu will include:

Whether you’re a passionate home cook or just looking for a fun and flavour-packed experience, this workshop is designed to be accessible, creative, and full of inspiration. You’ll leave with new skills, a full belly, and a recipe collection to keep the street food magic going at home.
Your tutor will guide you step-by-step, sharing tips on how to use different flavourings to bring your dishes to life. Whether you’re a kitchen newbie or a seasoned foodie, you’ll leave inspired and ready to recreate the magic at home.
