Chef Davide runs small, relaxed Italian cooking classes, from beginner pasta nights to regional cooking mornings.

Getting Cooking Classes Right

The Inner West is one of Sydney's great food regions, from Marrickville's eateries to the restaurants of Newtown and Glebe, so it is a good place to learn to cook rather than just eat. On Party Hero, the cooking class for the Inner West so far is The Coastal Italian on Glebe Point Road in Glebe, a small cooking school run by chef Davide. Its focus is hands-on Italian: fresh pasta, the right sauce for each shape and a shared meal at the end. For groups from Balmain, Leichhardt, Newtown or further west, Glebe is a short trip.

What to know before organising a group:

Getting there: trains, buses and ferries serve different parts of the Inner West. Glebe itself is on bus routes and the Inner West light rail, and street parking there is limited.
The experience: you make pasta dough from scratch, shape it and cook sauces from the Italian Riviera and regional Italy, then eat together.
Group size: team building and private events are arranged by enquiring directly with Davide, and couples can book a private three-hour class for two.
Booking lead time: public classes follow a set calendar, with weekday evenings from 6pm to 8.30pm and three-hour weekend classes from 10am, so plan ahead for a particular date.
Food and drinks: an Italian drink and antipasto are included while you cook. The venue is unlicensed and does not allow BYO alcohol.

Classes start from $80 per person. That makes a cooking class a good alternative to a restaurant booking for a work team or group of friends, since dinner is part of the deal. Guests need to be 18 or over, and anyone with dietary requirements should talk to Davide before booking.

Everyone has a job, which gets people talking in a way a restaurant table does not.
The meal at the end is what the group has made, so the class doubles as dinner or lunch.
It suits team building, since cooking together takes a bit of coordination.
Couples can make it a date, with a Pasta Date Night on the public calendar.

Weekend Pasta, Gnocchi and Ravioli masterclasses run for three hours from 10am.
Regional classes are built around the food of Tuscany, Puglia, Sicily and Sardinia.
