Events at Good Life Kitchen
Dinner Parties
Break away from a traditional dinner party and bring your guests to an
elegant and educational dining experience. During our hands-on cooking
class, guests are guided through the preparation of a creative and seasonal
three-course menu. Breaking into small groups allows friends and family
the chance to interact while preparing their meal.
Are you looking for something fun and interesting to do with clients while
they are in town? A Good Life Kitchen Dinner Party is also an exciting
alternative to business meetings and dinners.
Corporate Team Building
Good Life Kitchen Team events are perfect team-building opportunities;
they are a sophisticated yet fun way to bring down the silos. Lead by our
noted professional chef instructors, your team will be divided into small
groups and guided through the preparation of multiple culinary courses
from start to finish. When the cooking is complete, your group will relax and
enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Any Age Birthday Parties
Birthday Parties at the Good Life Kitchen can be a fun and
memorable experience for any age! All you have to do is bring your
friends and we will take care of all of the preparation, entertainment
& clean-up.
For Children:
We offer festive birthday events for children ages 9-14. The birthday
child and each guest will leave with recipes and a special GLK gift.
The menu for the party is tailored and created based on the
birthday child’s desired theme.
Birthday Party Theme Ideas:
- Refreshing Breakfast
- Pasta and Fresh Sauce
- Pizza Party
