Boston Interactive Meal

Yes and No. Our hands-on experiences feature the best “peak” moments of classic cooking or cocktail class, blended with the pampering and enjoyment of a prix fixe tasting experience. The perfect balance of time to mingle and connect (aka relax and enjoy!) and time to get hands-on (aka learn and engage!)

Choose our Hands-on Meal package for a full and satisfying meal, great for lunch or dinner! Choose our Hands-on Happy Hour package for a beverage-focused experience with light snacks, great if you have other meal plans before or after.

Our pricing already includes applicable taxes! For private events, there is a standard $25 per person private event service charge noted. This helps ensure we can tip the staff for larger/private groups. No surprise “booking fees” or hidden extras.

It’s okay! We can accommodate dietary restrictions and requests for non-alcoholic substitute beverages – including mocktails for hands-on drink experiences. Requests MUST be submitted by the deadline (1 week prior to event.) Extra requests submitted after the deadline, especially day-of will be accommodated as best as possible, but may incur additional charges ($15+ per change.)

That’s okay! You can still book to reserve your date/time with an estimate and adjust later. We accommodate changes of +/- 20% from your original number. Ask your curator if you need special arrangements for larger changes.

We’ll send your confirmed meeting address 1 week prior to your event date, after we receive your final guest list and dietary restrictions info. The menu itself is a prix fixe seasonal menu, revealed as part of the experience itself as it unfolds. You can read about example featured food+drink in our proposal to understand the caliber and style of dishes and cocktails we highlight.

You certainly can, but you may not feel the need! Our Hands-on Meal package includes 3 beverage pairings per person and our Hands-on Happy Hour includes 2 beverage pairings per person. For a 1.5-2 hour experience, we don’t recommend additional alcoholic beverage pairings. But you’re welcome to start a tab if you’d like to!

Yes! Bookings made less than 2 weeks in advance are considered rush bookings. We release our staff’s availability at 2 weeks so they can pursue other passions, so rush bookings require a quick manual availability check. We strive to confirm rush availability within 24-48 hours. Rush bookings do come with a nominal rush charge of $150, and deadlines for dietary restrictions info and final guest count are extended to 3 days prior to the event date. Inquiries less than 3 days in advance require all guest info upon booking.
