Pop-up class marketplace · The Loop, Chicago
Marketplace of small-group cooking classes in Chicago neighborhood venues, $55 to $79
CocuSocial is a marketplace. Local chefs teach hands-on cooking classes in venues across Chicago, and the neighborhood and chef change with each listing. Current classes are in Lincoln Square, Bowmanville, Hyde Park, Wrigleyville and Oak Brooke Terrace.
The menus lean on pasta, sushi and dumplings, with desserts and baking in the mix. Examples are Handmade Ricotta Ravioli, Hand-Rolled Sushi, The Ramen Experience and Classic French Macaron. There are seasonal classes too, like Halloween and Christmas Cookie Decorating, and a gumbo class. Several listings are marked as small classes. Most are for adults.
Prices run $55 to $79, which makes it one of the cheaper ways to take an evening class in the city. CocuSocial also sells gift cards and takes private event bookings.
