Junior Chefs Kitchen will open a new cooking studio in the West Loop this fall, expanding its offerings for children ages 2-18. The studio will feature two classrooms and provide hands-on cooking classes developed by a registered dietitian, focusing on healthy cooking skills. Camps will offer full-day and half-day sessions, allowing children to create their own meals and participate in team challenges. Families can also book themed birthday parties, including options like cupcake wars and taco fiestas, with costs ranging from $600 to $1,495. The business hosts restaurant field trips where students learn from top chefs at popular city restaurants.

Additionally, Junior Chefs Kitchen offers Parents Night Out events, providing parents with a guided cooking class and take-home treats. Flexible semester memberships will be available, featuring weekly classes and access to digital resources. This expansion highlights a growing interest in culinary education for children in urban areas.
