2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Skip the jarred sauce routine and learn how pasta night is actually supposed to taste. In this relaxed Bay Area cooking class with Chef Alexis, you’ll make fresh pasta from scratch using simple ingredients and techniques that are easier than they look.

You’ll begin by mixing flour, eggs, salt and pepper into a smooth pasta dough, then learn how to knead, roll and shape it by hand. Chef Alexis guides you through each step, sharing useful techniques for working with dough, improving texture and cooking fresh pasta properly.

Next, you’ll prepare a classic red sauce with tomatoes, garlic, onion and butter, creating a rich, comforting flavor that pairs perfectly with your handmade noodles. The atmosphere stays social and low-pressure, making it easy to learn while enjoying good conversation and plenty of hands-on cooking.

The reward is a plate of fresh pasta made entirely by you, plus a kitchen skill that feels far more impressive than saying, “I ordered takeout.”

What to expect

Flour, eggs and a little patience turn into something surprisingly impressive in this hands-on pasta-making class with Chef Alexis. Hosted at a lively Bay Area brewery, this experience takes you from mixing dough to twirling fresh pasta like it’s suddenly your personality trait.

You’ll start by combining flour, eggs, salt and pepper to create fresh pasta dough from scratch. Then comes the fun part: kneading, rolling and shaping your pasta while learning practical techniques for dough texture, handling and cooking it to the perfect bite. Chef Alexis keeps every step approachable, so no experience is needed.

While the pasta comes together, you’ll build a rich red sauce with tomatoes, onion, garlic and butter, filling the room with the kind of aroma that makes waiting feel unfair. By the end, you’ll plate up fresh handmade pasta covered in your homemade sauce and sit down to enjoy every bite.

Store-bought pasta is officially on notice.
