Steam lifts from a simmering pot while the room hums with clinks of metal and low conversation — the sort of focused energy you find in a busy Baltimore brewpub turned classroom. Here, a local chef walks participants through hammering together fresh aromatics into red Thai curry paste, and the scent of lemongrass and chilies starts to take the lead.

Steam lifts from a simmering pot while the room hums with clinks of metal and low conversation — the sort of focused energy you find in a busy Baltimore brewpub turned classroom. Here, a local chef walks participants through hammering together fresh aromatics into red Thai curry paste, and the scent of lemongrass and chilies starts to take the lead.
The class frames red curry within Thailand’s regional traditions — where preserved spice pastes and coconut milk balance heat and creaminess — and contrasts that lineage with Baltimore’s own maritime food history. The Chesapeake’s salt air and oyster trade shaped local palates; tonight those local sensibilities meet Southeast Asian technique at communal counters and stainless-steel workstations. The session mixes practical technique — knife work, toasting spices, balancing coconut richness — with cultural notes on how red curry differs from green or panang.
Students can expect hands-on instruction, a two-hour pace suited to beginners, and a full meal at the end: chicken simmered in your freshly made paste with perfectly cooked rice. The experience is social—ideal for solo travelers, dates, or small groups—and hosted in an accessible, brewery/distillery setting.
Practical pointers: arrive a few minutes early to claim a station and a drink; disclose dietary restrictions in advance; wear closed-toe shoes for kitchen safety; and bring a notebook if you want to record ratios and flavor tweaks. For recreation-minded travelers, pair the class with an afternoon walk along the Inner Harbor or an evening at a nearby taproom to round out a taste-forward Baltimore visit.
