For dessert, we’ll make Portokalopita, a uniquely wonderful orange-scented custard cake made with crisp phyllo — fragrant, decadent, and utterly irresistible.

St. Paddy's Irish Table Cooking Experience 🍀
2026-03-16 11:00 - 13:00, 2026-03-17 11:00 - 13:00, 2026-03-17 18:30 - 21:00 UTC
Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with a meal that’s hearty, homey, and unmistakably Irish. In this hands-on class, we’ll explore the comforting flavors of the Emerald Isle, where humble ingredients come together in rich, satisfying ways.
You’ll start with a silky Potato and Leek Soup, the perfect warm-up for a cool March day. Then we’ll bake a loaf of traditional Brown Soda Bread — simple, rustic, and served warm with plenty of Irish butter (because that’s the only proper way to serve it).
Next, we’ll dive into crafting individual Shepherd’s Pies, made with tender ground lamb, carrots, parsnips, and peas, all tucked beneath golden mashed potatoes and baked until crisp and bubbling. We’ll round it out with braised cabbage with apples and caraway, a sweet-savory side that balances the richness of the pie and fills the kitchen with the scent of cozy contentment.
And, of course, no Irish celebration is complete without a touch of indulgence. For dessert, we’ll make a decadent Guinness Chocolate Cake, dark and moist with just a hint of stout’s malty depth, topped with clouds of whipped cream.
Whether you’re Irish by blood or just by appetite, this class is a delicious way to toast to the season. BYOB is always welcome — a pint of Guinness, a crisp Irish cider, or even a splash of whiskey makes a fine companion for the feast.
Come hungry, leave happy, and may the luck of the Irish follow you home
