Join us for a delicious collaboration with The Table Less Traveled, Nick The Wine Guy, and Chessine from Kotodama Journeys!
In this virtual cooking class, you’ll immerse yourself in the vibrant flavors of Carne de Porco à Alentejana, a hearty pork & clam dish in a white wine-red pepper sauce, typical to southern Portugal. Our dear friend, Sofia, will guide you step by step from her home kitchen in Evora, while you, Nick, and Chessine cook together in real time, making this a truly special session for food lovers who want to learn, connect, and eat well.
During class, Nick will host a wine tasting of a delicious Alentejo Branco from southern Portugal.
Book the class, gather your ingredients, and join us as we travel to Portugal to explore its culture, cuisine, and wine!
