About Rata2ee

Cooking lessons for CHILDREN AND ADULTS

Rata2ee runs week-long summer camps for school-age kids, as well as advanced camps for those in 6th grade on up. We also offer 6-wk after-school classes from January to mid-Feb, and then again in March to mid-April. All camps and after-school classes are held in schools or community houses. Our very popular themed events are offered seasonally. Our curriculum is based on the most current and up-to-date Dietary Guidelines for Americans, taught by ServSafe certified or trained instructors.

Groups & Parties

Rata2ee is a place where families and friends spend quality time together – where they can stop watching lessons on television, and start making their own wonderful creations, all while enjoying a positive, shared community experience. Above all, Rata2ee provides a warm environment where anyone from child to adult can join in, have fun, and learn life skills along the way!
