FOR COOKING CLASSES
If group classes are available, they will be listed below. To schedule a private lesson, email us at esotericvegan@gmail.com to set up a date and time. Each private class is custom created based on your skill level and interest. The cost per private cooking lesson is $125, and includes food expenses and approximately three hours learning time with Shalene in her home kitchen. You will be cooking side by side, and will get to take home your creation to share with your family, or selfishly keep all to yourself! (We won't judge!) Once you have your appointment confirmed, please return to this website to make your payment. We look forward to seeing you in the kitchen!
Please review our cancellation and refund policies prior to placing your order.

Each spring Shalene hosts events as part of the University School of Nashville’s Evening Classes Program (which ultimately benefits their needs-based tuition assistance program). Although these events are not presented in the classic Esoteric Vegan four-course format, we’re pretty sure you’ll still enjoy every moment!
In March, Shalene presents her “Brunch for Vegans” class, where she will demonstrate how to make her (vegan) Biscuits and Sausage Gravy! Following the cooking demonstration, you will be invited to sit down at the table with your “classmates” to enjoy a full brunch together, which will consist of biscuits and gravy, roasted potatoes, garlicky kale, fruit and muffins. Coffee/tea and Mimosas will also be served.
To reserve your spot in the kitchen and at the table, please CLICK HERE to be directed to the University School of Nashville’s Evening Classes page. Please note that Shalene donates her time for these USN classes, and is not paid. Your payment goes directly to benefit USN’s needs-based tuition assistance program! So come learn and eat with us, and know that by doing so you’re contributing to a great cause!

Esoteric Vegan will be taking the month of December off to make merry with friends and family. We wish all of you the very best this holiday season, and look forward to seeing you at the table in the new year.
Esoteric Vegan returns to the classic Saturday evening dinner event in November, but this month we’re bringing you a Thanksgiving-inspired meal. As an homage to classic Thanksgiving dinners, this meal will be served family style instead of served in courses, but we’ll still have you bursting at the seams! Wine pairings are included in cost of the event.
September’s dinner will have an Ethiopian menu. You will be treated to four, glorious vegan courses, while joined by the company of soon-to-be friends with similar interests and curiosities. Wine included in cost of event.
