Youth: Filipino Favorites (Ages 8-13)
Discover the rich traditions of Filipino cuisine.
Discover the rich traditions of Filipino cuisine while learning how to prepare two of the country’s most beloved dishes: crispy lumpia (spring rolls) and savory chicken adobo, a classic dish simmered in soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and spices.
Students will practice essential kitchen skills such as chopping, rolling, measuring, mixing, and cooking safely while gaining confidence in the kitchen. Along the way, they’ll learn about Filipino culture, the history behind these iconic dishes, and the importance of sharing meals with family and friends.
By the end of class, each young chef will enjoy the meal they’ve created and leave with recipes they can recreate at home.

Cooking with local ingredients and trusting her senses, Theary learned to achieve flavor in dishes that looked as good as they tasted. These skills enabled her to feel at home regardless of the cuisine she's exploring. For the past 20 years, Theary has been bringing her love of art and cooking to children and adults, teaching fundamentals as building blocks for creativity. The result is a safe and encouraging environment for students to explore their imaginations. Her goal is for each student to have a positive experience that inspires self-confidence, and the opportunity to connect with their own creativity. Theary is currently a K-6 educator locally and in Sonoma County. In her spare time, she spends time in the water, kayaking, hiking, or biking.
