Culinary Communion

The kitchen is the room that nurtures our souls and our bodies. It's the hearth of the 21st-century house, and everybody naturally congregates there.

CC House at Beacon Hill

CC House at Beacon Hill For over five years, Culinary Communion classes have been held at the home of its owners, Chef-Instructor Gabriel Claycamp and Director of Communications Heidi Kenyon. We have lived and worked in the same house, cooked and eaten with students, and welcomed you into our home. When we decided the time was ripe to move to a larger space in a commercial area so we could expand our business, we wanted to keep that feeling of opening our home to fellow foodies. We searched for months and finally found the perfect place: a restored Craftsman home in a neighborhood business district with apartments above where we could still have our home.

In the new space we will have room for larger classes for teambuildings and private events, but we will not be increasing the standard 10-student size of our regular classes—we like the intimacy that size group provides. We'll have a certified commercial kitchen from which to produce Chef Gabriel's sausages, bacon, stock, and other food products (these will now be available for sale to the public), but our main teaching kitchen will maintain its home-style feeling, with residential equipment (OK, except the dishwasher, we've learned our lesson). As before, the main focus of the space will be the dining room table around which students eat, converse, laugh, and become friends.

CC House at Beacon Hill is located at 2524 Beacon Avenue South, at the intersection of Beacon Avenue and 15th.
