Class Description:
Junior Chefs (ages 9-14) will win the prize when they answer the question, “What did you do this summer?” because they will be able to proudly report that they learned how to cook… and compete! Chef Susy Lara has been teaching kids classes at CCKC for many years and always gets rave reviews from her students. She's also a second-grade teacher, so she has tons of experience in the classroom. Chef Susy grew up cooking next to her mom making homemade Mexican dishes from scratch. In this summer camp, kids will spend three fun-filled days learning alongside Chef Susy as they compete in two Mystery Box challenges just like the ones on Food TV! Our young chefs will first learn basic cooking techniques and fundamentals like knife skills, measuring, and mixing. Then they will tackle the fundamentals of Mexican cuisine as they make dishes from scratch, including homemade Tortillas, Enchilada Sauce (from scratch using dried chiles), Pico de Gallo, Tacos al Pastore, and lots more. Then they will spend the third day breaking into teams and participating in a friendly cooking competition with judges and prizes. Of course, they’ll get to taste everything they make. So, kids, it’s all “lights, camera, cook!” as you get ready to show down in this three-day camp experience. Ole!

Notes:
Please click here for a full description of our policies and FAQ’s. Finalization of your registration tells us that you have read and understand them.  Below is a summary of some of the key information, but it is not all-inclusive. 

• For multi-session classes and camps, we will gladly give you a full refund if you need to cancel more than three weeks prior to the start of the first class in the series and/or camp. Within three weeks of the start of a series, no refunds or credits will be given. Please note that any refund issued for classes purchased using a Gift Certificate or Account Credit will result in reinstatement of the original Gift Card or Account Credit and will bear the same expiration date. Account Credits issued for cancelations within three weeks of a class will expire one year from the date of issuance. We reserve the right to cancel a class for any reason, at any time, in which case you will receive a full refund. In the event your child misses a class in the series or camp, no refunds will be given and it is not possible to make up the class(es) in a future similar series. Likewise, once the series or camp has begun, no substitutions will be allowed since the series is designed for the classes to build upon each other.
• If (a) you’d like to sit with another registered guest, or (b) have any food allergies or dietary restrictions, please let us know in the Comments section of your registration after reading our full description of policies and information about classes. Please note that children on the same registration form will automatically be seated together.
• Your registration tells us that you have read through the class description including the age requirements for that particular class.
• For Junior Chef (ages 9-14) classes and camps: Your child must be at least 9 years old as of the first class date (or as of the date of the first class of a series or camp) and no more than 14 years old. We reserve the right to check the age of your child. You must provide an Under 18 Waiver that is signed by a parent or legal guardian. Click here for a copy of the Under 18 Waiver. We encourage you to download, print, and sign the waiver and bring it to class with your child. If someone other than the parent signs a Waiver, they will need a legal document to be presented that shows without question that they have the legal authority to sign a Waiver on behalf of your child at that time. Without an appropriately signed Waiver, your child will not be allowed to attend the class. If someone other than the parent drops off your child and requests to sign on behalf of a child, they will need evidence that they are a legal guardian for that child. Please choose the class that is right for the developmental level and maturity of your child.   
• Our Kitchen Shop Experience™ will be open for browsing prior to class, during any breaks, and after class.
