This Summer, kids can tie on an apron and take over the kitchen at Salud! Cooking School. Students will take a culinary tour, sampling their way around this vibrant and diverse country of ours, The United States of America, creating a mix of dishes from popular cuisines and sit down to enjoy their delicious meals each day. They'll have tons of fun and leave with the confidence to make flavorful meals and snacks at home for family and friends.
Using the highest quality, freshest, all-natural ingredients, students work hands on with our experienced instructors to learn valuable cooking skills while making authentic recipes from around the world. Students will love showing off the fruits of their labor as they host an invited guest to their very own feast on the last day of camp. Kids will grasp many of the fundamentals of great cooking and develop healthy habits that will last a lifetime. Students will receive a Salud Apron to take home on Day 5.
