Emeril’s Seed to Table Culinary Experience

Want to impress your special someone with a delicious, freshly cooked meal made only of the finest ingredients? Spend Valentine’s Day learning to cook with an expert chef and become the culinary master you’ve always wanted to be!

Join us for an unforgettable trip to the Emeril Lagasse Foundation Kitchen House and Culinary Garden.
