The latest addition to the Relish family is a permanent facility in downtown Healdsburg—the Relish Culinary Center. We will continue to offer Roving with Relish classes—they will always be a big part of who we are. The events at the Center complement these roving culinary adventures. The Center also allow us to do events that are not feasible “on the road”.
The Relish Culinary Center echoes the comfortable yet sophisticated style of the award-winning Hotel Healdsburg whose entrance is across the street.
The Relish Culinary Center state-of-the-art teaching kitchen
The Center has the feel of a modern farmhouse kitchen―unstained cement floors and corrugated brushed aluminum siding balanced with warm wood and neutral colors. The space is designed to accommodate both demonstration and hands-on cooking events with state-of-the-art DCS home appliances, modern stainless sinks and fixtures, stone countertops and classically beautiful white oak cabinetry. We want to create a "wow" factor as you enter and, especially, cook in this gorgeous kitchen.
Chef Charlie Palmer and his sons leading a demonstration dinner at the Center
As an extension of our support for sustainable farming and local artisan producers, the Relish Culinary Center features a variety of green products and finishes such as locally-built kitchen cabinets featuring FSC-certified hardwood, no-added-formaldehyde plywood and low VOC finishes; locally manufactured tile in the kitchens and bathroom; bamboo multi-purpose tables; no VOC paint; low VOC, non-toxic floor sealant; and recycled teak display cabinets.
Our outdoor kitchen is now complete! This wonderful outdoor area includes a Mugnaini Wood-Fired Oven (Prima 120 model), built-in DCS gas grill with storage cabinets and Gloster teak furniture. We used excess materials from the main building for a uniform industrial look that's quite different from the rustic oven designs commonly seen around the wine country. We look forward to holding many al fresco events between May and October so guests (you!) can enjoy the temperate weather of the area.
Our new outdoor kitchen
The center also includes an administrative office, unisex bathroom, and small commercial kitchen to meet heath department requirements for food storage, prep and clean-up.
The center seats up to 36 people classroom style for a demonstration event. Capacity for a hands-on event varies based on our ability to use the outdoor area—up 36 people for an indoor/outdoor event and 20 people for an indoor-only event.
We look forward to hosting a wide variety of public and private events at the new center, including private parties and winemaker dinners, team-building workshops and much more.
