In-person at Uptown Test Kitchen

What’s the secret to perfect pasta?

Chef Deborah Kudelka knows!

Italian cuisine is one of her specialties (thanks, in part, to her Italian heritage), and with 25+ years in the culinary arts, she’s ready to teach you how to make beautiful, versatile, and — most importantly — delicious pasta.

Join us as we partner with Chow À La Carte to present an evening of pasta making (and eating). Chef Deborah will introduce participants to the basics of this art form over canapés and aperitivi, and then they’ll use what they’ve learned to make their very own pasta.

Afterwards, participants will enjoy a dinner with Chef Deborah, complete with wine, salad, and, of course, pasta! The meal will be followed with Chef Deborah’s tiramisu and a digestivo of limoncello.

Participants will leave with pasta, small jars of pesto, and the skills to support their future pasta endeavors.

• About the Chef

  Deborah Kudelka’s passion for food and art came at a very young age. Her mother was Italian, and her father was Polish.

  Her summers were spent visiting her mother’s family in Italy and France, and she considers herself very lucky to have had such early exposure to fantastic food and wonderful art

  She studied fine art and was fortunate to see the works of great masters in museums across England, France, and Italy. Then came food. Her palate developed around Italian, French, and Polish cuisine.

  She attended culinary school and graduated Magna Cum Laude from Le Cordon Bleu. After working for various catering companies and restaurants, she finally opened her own little restaurant in the Sweet Auburn Curb Market (Ciao Bocca). She now works as a private chef.
