Cooking schools in Croatia

Cooking schools in Croatia are hired for corporate team building, private cooking experiences and children's parties, and the occasion itself sets the requirements: a kitchen that works for a group, equipment that matches the menu, and a host who runs the session. The listings below show how differently that is organised in Split, Zagreb and Stari Grad, and where the details need confirming with the venue.

Event services in Croatia

A culinary school in Split, two kitchens in Zagreb and a family estate on Hvar

Šefovi kuhinja mediteranskih i europskih regija on Jobova ulica in Split runs a programme built around gastronomy events, competitions and training, and organises birthday parties, including children's ones, as well as cooking experiences. Gastronomadi - škola kuhanja i gastro lab in Zagreb runs programmes for amateurs and professionals and hires its club space for a minimum of one day, with professional and household equipment, dishes, cleaning and a host included.

Enzita Kitchen Studio sits in Pavilion 14a of Zagrebački Velesajam in Novi Zagreb – zapad, with a projector, screen, sound system and folding chairs that turn the kitchen into a lecture room, and a wheelchair-accessible car park and entrance. Poje Hvar in Stari Grad is a family-run restaurant drawing on its own gardens and the island's wild nature; its business also covers a cooking course, a farm produce shop, a garden and a salon.

Matching the kitchen to the group

Group size, dietary requirements and the length of the session are what decide the format, and Gastronomadi state that these are agreed in advance and programmes put together individually. Enzita says the space and equipment adapt to smaller or larger teams. Ask what the kitchen can actually take on for your numbers, and whether the menu can be adjusted for allergies or preferences.

Few of these venues advertise the occasions planners most often ask about. Only Poje Hvar is listed as suitable for cooking experiences, and that is a listing, not a programme you can assume; confirm what the restaurant can arrange for a private group. Also ask about catering, service and how the room is set up if the session ends with a meal.

Is the kitchen equipment included in the hire?

Gastronomadi state that the club space is hired with professional and household equipment, dishes, cleaning and a host included. For the other venues, ask what equipment and ingredients are provided and what the group should bring.
