At Kids Culinary Academy, our executive chefs and registered dietician will inspire your imagination and encourage your creativity as you create tasty delights, sumptuous delicacies and extraordinary dishes.
While learning food preparation skills is the main ingredient at the Culinary Academy, each session adds a heap of kitchen safety, a scoop of etiquette, a handful of table setting, a pinch of menu planning and laughter to taste.
At Kids Culinary Academy, imaginations are free to run wild as kids discover math, reading, health, time management, food chemistry and social skills through our hands-on cooking camp.
