  • Jairo Riveros

    A Fantastic Experience! Barbara had a wonderful experience at The Real Food Academy Summer Camp. What I loved most is that this wasn’t just a fun activity—it gave her new skills, greater confidence in the kitchen, and a genuine interest in preparing and enjoying healthy food. And just as importantly, she made some great new friends along the way! And I’m already seeing the results at home! She has offered to make me breakfast and has already prepared a great salad for me. I have a feeling this is only the beginning, and there is much more to come from our new chef! ??‍? The team at The Real Food Academy does a fantastic job of making cooking fun, educational, and practical for kids. As a parent, it’s great to see your child come home excited to put into practice what she learned and eager to experiment with food. Thank you to Maria and the entire team for giving Barbara such a memorable experience. I would highly recommend the camp to other parents, and we will definitely be back! Five stars from both of us! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Events & Parties FAQs

Yes.

After you make your deposit, you’ll receive a series of emails from The Real Food Academy, including one to confirm your final headcount. This form must be submitted at least 1 day before your event.

We understand plans can change and will do our best to be flexible, but staffing and preparation are based on your final guest count, so last-minute changes cannot be guaranteed.

Yes, our space is designed to comfortably accommodate both children and their parents.

We offer plenty of room for adults to relax, socialize, and enjoy the experience while the kids cook. You can even enhance your time by ordering from our adult party platters and bringing wine or beer (no hard alcohol), creating a “party within a party” for parents, friends, and family.

Absolutely!

Yes, but for Executive and Top Chef parties only.

If a piñata is important to you and you have ordered a Budding Chef party, you can add $100 for the extra time and we will gladly welcome your piñata.

For kids’ and adult parties, we typically do not provide plates, napkins, candles, or similar items for party cakes. These are often part of the party’s theme, and in our experience, are best chosen by you or your loved ones.

However, we’re always happy to help if you need anything last-minute.

We love when guests personalize and decorate our space. However, items like glitter, confetti, slime, stickers, and noisemakers can be very difficult to clean and may disrupt the experience.

For this reason, we kindly ask that you do not bring these items.
