Tagliatelle & Pesto: Roll, Toss & Taste

Sat, Dec 12 · 6:30 PM cocusocial class at Galeria @ La Cosecha · Union Market

Fresh pasta, bold pesto, and a whole lot of "I made this from scratch" energy. Roll, layer, and sauce your way through an elevated pasta night where technique meets creativity and every bite tells a story. In this hands-on experience with Chef Cassandra, you'll mix, knead, roll, and cut your own fresh tagliatelle from scratch — then take things up a notch with pesto flavors you won't find in a jar. We're not talking basic basil. You'll explore a trio of bold, layered pestos — classic basil, bright lemon arugula, and a smoky roasted garlic and spinach remix — discovering how a great sauce can completely transform a dish. This class is built for connection, confidence, and creativity. Whether it's a date night, a solo foodie adventure, or a long-overdue excuse to ditch the boxed stuff, Chef Cassandra will guide you through every step with warmth, expertise, and just the right amount of fun. What You'll Make: You'll craft fresh tagliatelle from scratch and pair it with a rotating trio of elevated pestos — each one designed to surprise your palate and expand your sauce game. This is a relaxed, social experience that builds real kitchen confidence while keeping the energy light, playful, and genuinely delicious. Whether you're looking for a creative date night, a fun outing with friends, or just your new favorite thing to brag about at dinner parties, this class delivers the perfect blend of technique, flavor, and that unbeatable "I made this!" moment. All tools and ingredients are provided! No experience necessary! Our classes are casual, welcoming, and beginner-friendly — perfect for hands-on participants and those who prefer to observe or taste along the way. Your workstation will be fully prepped so you can focus on enjoying the experience. Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in. The nature of our classes are set up so that booking parties will work together during class, sharing both ingredients and equipment. Groups of 2 may be asked to share their station wit…

Welcome to AskAlice

Hi, I'm Alice.

I go out a lot around DC, Virginia and Maryland, and I got tired of losing hours to Instagram Stories and a dozen venue calendars just to find out what was happening. So I built this to do that watching for me — real, confirmed events pulled from hundreds of sources, sorted so you can find your night instead of hunting for it.
