About
Our weeklong and single-day cooking camps run during school holidays and summer break in San Francisco and the East Bay for kids ages 4-10. Through hands-on, sensory adventures, we teach an intuitive approach to cooking that empowers young chefs to trust their instincts while exploring global flavors and techniques. 10 years of experience hosting over 5,000 campers — many of them repeat campers or referrals from parents who trust us for our reliability, expertise, and engaging approach to cooking.
Summer camp themes rotate weekly: Beyond Borders (world cuisine), Palette to Plate (colorful California cuisine), and Baking Bliss (the art and science of baking) — each week wraps up with a costume party on Friday. We make brunch, lunch and dessert with the kids at camp; we encourage kids to eat what they've cooked, and have alternate snacks available as needed.
Camp runs 9am-3pm on weekdays at our studio in Ghirardelli Square (street level, between Polk Street & Larkin Street facing the water). We typically host up to 26 kids in a single day camp with a 1 staff to 6 kids ratio (which may increase to 1:8 when certain staff members are on break). Half-day afternoon camps also run at partner locations in Piedmont and Albany in the East Bay.
