» Private cooking parties at our loft

My Cooking Party has perfected the recipe for unforgettable events. Our hands-on cooking parties are a fabulous way to spice up your ordinary event or get together.

We accommodate parties of all sizes in rented professional kitchens or private homes in the New York City, New Jersey and Philadelphia Area. Our events are perfect for Bachelorette parties, Bridal showers, Baby showers, Birthday parties and Celebrations of all kinds.

Whether you choose to come to one of our NYC Culinary Loft, or would like us to send our chefs to your location, we would make your party a memorable one.

» How does it work?

Selecting your menu!
Upon booking your event, our staff will send you our Full Menu Selection where you get to choose 3 courses. 1 Appetizer (choice of: appetizer, soup or salad), 1 Main Course (choice of: pasta, poultry, beef, lamb or seafood) and 1 Dessert. If your group includes vegetarians we can supplement vegetarian options which will be provided by our Catering Department.

Arriving at the loft!
Upon arrival, guests are welcomed with hors d’œuvres, Complimentary Red and White Wine and soft beverages. During this time, guests have an opportunity to mingle, meet their chefs, and skim the extensive pantry to get their creative juices flowing. They will find cooking stations outfitted with kitchen equipment and tools, fresh produce cleaned and prepped, and tables set for an elegant sit-down dinner. We will stream music personalized to your group’s taste. (Approximately ½ hour)

Cooking Time!
Once all your guests have arrived and are comfortably settled, your leading chef will introduce the team of chefs and your guests will be divided into teams - either predetermined by you or chosen by the leading chef. Once at the working stations, each chef will ask the guests to put on their aprons and then introduce the menu you have selected. This is followed by an interactive cooking demonstration where your guests will learn kitchen tips and tricks and knife skills -- applicable to both the novice and the gourmet chef -- which they can use to get an edge for a lifetime. Our chefs will then “put your team to work”. (Approximately 1 ½ hours)

Our wait staff will be walking around filling up your glasses and passing around hors d’œuvres through out the cooking time. Upbeat music will be playing in the back ground to create high energy environment like a COOKING PARTY should have.

Dinner Time!
At the completion of the cooking session the teams will proceed to sit down and enjoy the 4-star gourmet meal they have whipped up, plated by our Chefs. Our wait staff will ensure the best professional and top restaurant-quality service as your guests enjoy the fruits of their labor. (Approximately 1 hour)
