PASTA NIGHT

Pasta Night is an ALL HANDS IN dinner party. Think cooking class meets pop-up restaurant. After a lil’ aperitivo*, I will teach your group the art of making hand-formed, semolina pasta. Afterwards, your group will sit back and enjoy a seasonal, family-style feast, prepared by yours truly.

how does it work?

step 1 — guests arrive and settle in with a drink and an assortment of snacks

step 2 — everyone gathers around the pasta board and learns how to craft hand-formed pasta

step 3 — the group collectively makes the pasta shapes while I put the finishing touches on dinner**

step 4 — you and your guests dust the flour from your hands and sit down for seasonal, Italian-inspired feast

**the dinner menu will include our hand-made pasta paired with a seasonal sauce, two vegetables side dishes, a salad and a small dessert. Pasta Night will lean heavily vegetarian as the goal is to highlight locally grown produce***

but where?

PASTA NIGHT is currently a traveling circus — just give me a call and we’ll get set up wherever you’d like to host.

option 1 — In person Pasta Nights can be held anywhere in the greater Durham, NC area. I will set up shop in your kitchen for the night, and you’ll have a restaurant experience in the comfort of your own home.

option 2 — Pasta Night at Farmbelly, in Saxapahaw, NC. Come on down to the farm and learn to make some pasta while being surrounded by the vegetables you’ll be eating. While I finish up cooking, Michelle will give you a tour of the farm and answer your burning, gardening questions.

option 3 — Pasta Night at The Hotsy Totsy, in Pittsboro, NC. The Hotsy-Totsy, a Civil War-era farmhouse on seven secluded acres near the Haw River. You'll feel worlds away at this historical woodland farmstead, while being just 12-15 mins from the towns of Carrboro, Saxapahaw, and Pittsboro
