About This Class
We can’t promise to get you to Spain this summer but learning some killer recipes for tapas will be the next best thing. Join chef Mat Schuster of Canela Bistro as he guides you through preparing tapas that are seasonal, unique, and huge on flavor.
A tapas menu might mean small bites, but that’s all the more reason to make every bite count. We’re talking about a variety of tastes, textures, and even temperatures so the whole menu shines when it comes together. Then again, we love the idea of just preparing one or two of your favorites before your next dinner party, too.
You’ll learn about key items in the Spanish pantry, pro tips for making parts of each recipe ahead of time, and even a sweet dessert to top it all off. Trust us, this will be the summer dinner party you go back to again and again.

FAQ
The average duration of our current cooking classes is 2 hours, which is predominately hands-on work. You will be standing for the majority of class, cooking at your work station as your instructor demonstrates techniques and walks around providing individual feedback.
Due to COVID-19 regulations, we can not have students congregate in the building before class starts. Doors will open 5 minutes prior to class starting and we will begin promptly on time. Students will be asked to queue up outside the door of the school, safely distanced (sidewalks are clearly marked) and will be let in the school just before class begins.
Please arrive at the school with your own mask on. You will be given a new, disposable mask to wear in class to ensure what you have on hasn’t been contaminated prior to entering SFCS. We will have extras available should you need one while at school.
Wear comfortable clothes and close-toed shoes (remember, you’ll be on your feet cooking). The kitchens at SFCS are fully equipped with everything else you need, including clean aprons.
Due to COVID-19 regulations, we will not be serving food or drinks during class, We will, however, be sending you home with both ingredients and finished food items so you can enjoy them later, and practice as well.
Wear casual clothing you can easily move around in, and comfortable close-toed shoes. Long hair must be pulled back and masks, provided by SFCS, are required while in the building.
