At Bon Vivant School of Cooking we offer you the creative opportunity to design your culinary experience at your own pace. Our cooking school offers convenient evening and Saturday classes, held in select private homes in the Seattle-Bellevue area, that are geared toward quality, continuity and the joy of people sharing fine cuisine. We present a diverse selection of both demonstration and hands-on classes.

Whether you are looking to us as a layperson wishing to enhance your cooking skills and expand your repertory or as a pre-professional, our school offers you the opportunity to design your culinary study to meet your objectives.

Our Art of Fine Cuisine Certificate Course trains you to be the kind of cook you have always wanted to be, one that is creative and confident in the kitchen. Learn the best chef techniques for becoming an accomplished cook. If you need to miss a few classes in a series it is not a problem. We offer excused absences that allow you to make-up a class in another run of the series.

Register for the full membership of 12 credits ($375) - you will use 9 credits for your course and have 3 left over for other classes of your choice to be used at any time. (Please note: at $39 per credit, 2 of these extra credits are free).

WHAT IS A FLEX DATE? Our Series Course schedules list a "Flex Date" in addition to the regular class dates. This is a date we have set aside to allow for changes in the instructor's personal circumstances, illness, weather emergencies, etc. We ask that you hold the flex date open on your calendar until we are sure it will not be needed to make up a rescheduled class.
