Chef Nathan Guggenheimer will teach you how to create two types of fresh pasta dough, with a step-by-step guide to crafting long, flat ribbons of pappardelle noodles and perfectly stuffed ravioli, along with their complementary sauces.
Menu
- Tomato, Arugula, Basil, and Mozzarella Salad
A fresh, vibrant starter with the bold flavours of ripe tomatoes, peppery arugula, aromatic basil, and creamy mozzarella to set the stage.

Featuring locally sourced squash, this ravioli is complemented by a rich brown butter sauce, crispy lardons, and sautéed kale, offering a perfect blend of flavours.
