Culinary Arts
At Hidden Valley, young chefs whip up culinary creations in our fully equipped commercial kitchen. Our hands-on, sophisticated classes are designed for young foodies, curious cooks, and kitchen newcomers.
Young chefs learn about food safety, experimenting with flavors and ingredients. Each year is different and new.
