Piccolo Chef is committed to promoting and teaching moms and their kids how to cook and eat in a fun AND healthy way. We believe that wonderful foods do not come out of boxes and microwave ovens. We believe your family can eat healthy meals crafted quickly, simply and on a budget. We believe that our kitchens are magical places where the entire family will discover the power in quality, organic ingredients and delicious recipes – all mixed together and cooked with the warmth of love.

At Piccolo Chef, small children learn about the wonder of cracking an egg for the first time; the extraordinarily textured flavor of a Myer lemon; the ecstasy of pounding pizza dough. They learn all the amazing things that can go into making their meals, from planting tomato seeds to preparing fresh carrots to the final spotless clean-up that says, “We did it together!” For the older kids and teens, sophisticated recipes based on high-quality real food will keep them engaged and teach them a life skill they will take with them forever.

And all this while building the self-confidence that comes with making delicious family meals. We learn about the history of foods and cooking. We talk about different world cultures. We study proper table manners and etiquette. We work together as a team to make amazing new dishes. And… we bring the family together in ways that many of us have forgotten or lost in the haste and stress of our do-it-all schedules.

The kitchen is where the hearth and heart is… It is where we talk about our days, remember our past, dream of our future and share time with the people we cherish. That is Piccolo Chef. An innovative school. A family experience. A recipe for health, laughter and delicious meal-times.

So please join us at Piccolo Chef for our cooking classes for children and teens, holiday family workshops, culinary camps and extraordinary birthday parties. We look forward to you becoming part of our Piccolo Chef family – and us becoming part of yours.
