Introducing The Dirty Bird Dinner Club

November 20, 2020

News From Pigeon + Friends: Introducing The Dirty Bird Dinner Club

Welcome to the Dirty Bird Dinner Club! Join Chef Gabriel Rucker in a five-part cooking club taking place in the comforts of your own home! Let’s be honest, it’s been a long year and we could all use some excitement in our lives (as well as some new moves in the kitchen). So join us, every Wednesday between Thanksgiving and New Years’ for laughs, new techniques, some much-needed community and a delicious meal.

Each cooking class will include a box of all necessary ingredients for each meal to be picked up the day of the demo at Canard from 12-5pm. You will need a couple of essential items and cookware, but everything else will be covered. Meals will be for two and will consist of a semi-prepared appetizer, plated dinner and sweet treat from our Pastry Chef, Sweet Matt. Recipes will also be included so you can make these dishes again and again. The class will be held via Zoom and will be about 1-1.5 hour (s) of hands-on cooking time followed by an optional time to enjoy dinner with Gabriel and talk about food, restaurants, family, the pandemic…really anything!

Each class will be 150.00, outside of the special black truffle dinner on the Wednesday before New Years Eve priced at 225.00. Each ticket will cover one box of needed provisions which will feed two. BONUS, If you purchase all 5 classes, we are offering 10% off plus two Le Pigeon t-shirts for you and your kitchen comrade! If you have any questions, please reach out to Megan, our General Manager, at [email protected]
