OUR CLASSES

Welcome to the Fun, Food & Folklore of the New Orleans School of Cooking!
Our entertaining classes and the Louisiana General Store are located in a renovated molasses warehouse built in the early 1800's. We teach the basics of Louisiana Cooking in a way you'll never forget. Fun is the primary ingredient in our kitchen! Our Creole/Cajun experts teach New Orleans specialties such as Gumbo, Jambalaya, Shrimp Creole and Pralines, and season them with history, tall tales and trivia.

We offer a variety of classes to suite each individual's culinary desire...
