Your Hosts
Lou & Kara Verde
Lou and Kara open their Atlanta home to small groups for an evening rooted in Italian tradition. Lou grew up in a three-generation Italian-American household where everyone was always in the kitchen, the food was real, and the table was sacred. He founded LIFE to bring that way of living back — one table at a time. Every penny from every class goes directly to LIFE.

“We came for a family date night and left with so much more than a great meal. Lou and Kara made the whole evening feel effortless and warm. We're already talking about coming back.”

“The cooking class with Lou and Kara was the most precious and valuable experience we have ever booked. We made pasta and tiramisu with our kids in a comfortable home setting. Everything was fresh, delicious, and unrushed. Lou and Kara made our children feel included, so the entire evening felt relaxed and joyful. We recommend it to everyone.”
