We welcome every body.

Italy-trained Chef Chris Atwood has partnered with HH Artisan Kitchen to bring a taste of the Old Country — pinch by pinch — to hungry cooks in metro Atlanta.  Chris learned to cook from Italian mothers and grandmothers. He now teaches hands-on cooking classes where guests savor a true taste of Italy. 

Typically, Italian recipes don't need a thousand-and-one ingredients. Simplicity and seasonality rule the day — with fresh, local, and high-quality ingredients, not chef egos, driving what's for dinner.   

"A pinch of this, a bit of that.  Italian cooking has been passed down, hand-to-hand, for generations — whether it's finger-sealed pastas or slow-simmered sauces." 

When it comes to how to cook authentic Italian dishes from scratch, traditional hands-on techniques can be hard to learn—especially when you don't live in Italy or have an Italian nonna (grandma) to call for cooking tips.
