2026-2027 Class schedule

In person Class Schedule: $85.00 + tax = $97.73 each

These hands-on cooking classes will include carefully designed lessons. They will teach you so much more than a recipe. I have created each one to help you achieve the result you are looking for.  I believe that once you learn and understand the importance of COOKING WITH YOUR SENSES, your cooking skills will automatically go to the next level. Together we will experience the magic that happens in the kitchen, and I promise, this will inspire you to create some wonderful new creations for your friends and family.

About Us

Meet Zeina & Robert

If you are looking for inspiration and ways to improve your eating habits, tips to create delicious meals or a fun night out with friends, you’ve come to the right place!

Zeina

I always say, “Where there’s food, there’s love!” I’m passionate about preparing delicious, healthy food for my family and friends and helping others to do the same for all the people they love.

Over the years I have gathered many ways to simplify how to cook various types of food and combine them to bring out the best in their flavours. I am eager to share my easy, reliable cooking skills with others in a fun, cozy environment!

My culinary journey began when I was a child, learning Mediterranean cuisine from my parents. Although I later spent many years working full time as a hairstylist, my love for cooking never faded. It led to me running a catering business for five years providing homestyle meals for busy families.

I started Zeina’s Kitchen in 2014 to invite people to learn in a relaxed and joyful setting – my very own kitchen – the many quick and easy cooking techniques I have used over the years to make tasty nutritious meals in almost no time. Each class has a fun theme with practical results that people can easily prepare again at home.

Robert

Robert loves to share his joy of a good wine and would often take a few minutes in one of my classes to have everyone share a bit of his latest discovery. As the popularity of my classes grew, people were also curious to know more about Robert’s wine preferences as a member of the Canadian Association of Professional Sommeliers. So together we launched wine-tasting classes for individuals, private groups, as well corporate events. He serves and explains his thoughtful selections which we accompany with the food I have specially prepared to pair with each wine.

Robert’s wine classes virtually take people around the world to enjoy wonderful vintages. My culinary adventures have also included hosting a culinary retreat in Costa Rica where the group learnt about preparing wonderful food in addition to taking some relaxing time for themselves.
