Riverside Kitchen

Hands On

This laid-back is all about mastering the foundations of great pizza. It's the perfect session for anyone looking to upskill in the kitchen and bring professional techniques into their home cooking. You'll be welcomed with a snack and drink on arrival before gathering around the bench for a demonstration on our signature pizza dough. Then it’s your turn! You’ll mix and knead your own dough, guided by our chef. After the dough is resting, we’ll regroup for a second demo on stretching, shaping, and using a pizza paddle for smooth transfers to the oven. Back at your station, you’ll get to practice these techniques and build your own pizzas with a range of toppings, then enjoy them hot! Straight from the oven to your plate! To wrap things up, you’ll return to the bench one last time to learn how to fold and store the dough you made earlier, ready to take home and continue practicing your new skills.

Two beverages are included; additional drinks are available for purchase.
