Class Description

Description

Georgian cuisine is finally being recognized for its variety, and the depth of flavors and techniques that characterize its unique culinary traditions. Given the country's location at the exact intersection of Europe and Asia, influences from both cultures have informed the dishes that the region is known for. From the banks of the Black Sea to the Caucasus Mountains, the land provides herbs, nuts and vegetables used in all aspects of its culinary traditions. 

You’ll become acquainted with the new "it" cuisine as you prepare: 

  • adjaruli khachapuri (cheese bread)
  • nigvziani badrijani (stuffed eggplant rolls)
  • tabaka (chicken cooked "under a brick") with blackberry sauce
  • chakapuli (braised lamb with tarragon sauce)

School Notes:  

Important: If you have registered any guests without a first and last name when booking, please email [email protected] with all guest first and last names so that they can be cleared for security.

Please note that a valid ID is required for entry into ICE's building.

Upon arrival to 225 Liberty Street, proceed to the security desk on the 2nd floor located next to Hudson Eats to check in.

If this is your first time visiting ICE, you may want to leave yourself 30 minutes to find your way to our lobby at 225 Liberty Street.

We will begin checking guests in 15 minutes before the class start time. Please note that classes will enjoy the menu at the end of class. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Additionally, for those enrolled in a pastry or knife skills class, a meal is not planned so we recommend bringing a snack. Class menus subject to change.

Refund Policy

CANCELLATION/REFUND POLICY

To register for any class, payment in full is required at the time of registration. Two weeks withdrawal notice is required for a refund (excluding gift certificates); but please note a transaction fee will be deducted from the refund for each and every class seat registration that is canceled by the registrant/student based on the following scale: 

classes up to $125 will incur a $20 fee 

classes in the $126-$350 range will have a $30 fee

classes valued over $351 will incur a $50 fee.

When a class is dropped 3-13 days prior to the start date, only school class credit will be issued, and the corresponding transaction fee will be deducted (see above).

Rescheduling a class still entails a cancellation and, therefore, a transaction fee will still be charged to customers.

There are no refunds or school credit issued when fewer than 48-hour notice from the class start date is given.

Students must attend the first class in a series. Students may make up missed classes in any Techniques series or Wine Essentials course without charge after attending the first lesson. Techniques make-up classes are available on a limited basis and must be arranged with ICE’s Guest Relations Manager. All make-up classes are subject to availability. Missed make-up classes cannot be rescheduled.

Gift certificates are not refundable, but may be transferred to another person.

Cancellation and Other Policies

The Institute of Culinary Education reserves the right to cancel any class that fails to attract sufficient enrollment. In case of cancellation, all students will be notified and a full refund will be given. Students traveling to ICE from outside the New York metropolitan area should confirm their class registration(s) before finalizing travel arrangements. In order to minimize class interruptions, ICE maintains the right to deny student registration and/or entrance if more than 10 minutes late.

In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.

  • Essentials of Georgian Cooking

    Working in groups of four we cooked four dishes - a lamb stew, chicken under a brick, eggplant with an herb paste and khachapuri (very cheesy indulgent Georgian bread). Now I know how to spatchcock a chicken! I wish we had more time as had to rush a bit to eat. Instructor was great and everything was delicious.
  • Essentials of Georgian Cooking

    Fantastic, delicious, fun! This was my first class and it was better than expected. My friend surprised me with it as a Christmas gift. The gift that will definitely keep on giving! The staff was courteous and professional. I have nothing but good things to say!
  • Essentials of Georgian Cooking

    This was hands down the best class I have taken so far. It was organized, the teacher was amazing and not only taught the course efficiently, effectively and in a fun manner, but she gave background stories, tips and brought passion to the event. My team was great - good people who communicated well and shared (I know you can’t screen people, but there have been some doozies in the past). John and Selena were great helping Chef and very polite and professional. Selena was a real rock star with her always being one or two steps ahead, anticipating everyone’s needs. If all classes were run like this I would guarantee your attendance would be even higher. Just great!
