Chef’s studio · Centennial, CO
Nut-free franchise kitchen in Centennial for date nights, kids parties and camps
Taste Buds Kitchen Centennial is one location of a national cooking school franchise. It runs from a custom-designed kitchen studio at 20269 E Smoky Hill Rd in south Denver. Each kitchen is independently owned. Kids cook here by day and adults by night, and the kitchen welcomes ages 2 to 99.
Adult classes last two hours and start at $85. A chef instructor demonstrates each recipe. Then your table cooks the whole menu from scratch and sits down family style to eat it. Menus lean toward fresh pasta, sushi and dumplings. Tables are shared, so small groups cook alongside other guests. Book four seats if you want a table to yourselves. Guests 21 and over can buy wine and beer on site, but you can't bring your own.
The kids side is busy. It covers birthday parties with menus like Pizza Perfection and Tasty Thai, school break and summer camps, and field trips. Gingerbread house decorating runs in November and December. The team won a 2025 Denver Camperoni Award for best staff. Every menu is nut-free.
