Date Night: The Ultimate Lasagna is a hands-on cooking class in Fargo, North Dakota, located at 1407 1st Ave N, Fargo, ND 58102, USA. For three hours you and a partner learn to make fresh pasta sheets, Ragù alla Bolognese, and silky béchamel under instructor Bee Mittleider of Deep Blue Seafood. The class walks you through technique, assembly, and finishes with a fall-forward pear, fennel, arugula, and feta salad plus chef-prepared chocolate salami for dessert.
The studio’s pace is intentional: this is not a rushed demo but a seat-at-the-counter session where bench work and conversation meet. You’ll start by making pasta dough, learning how to roll and cut sheets that will hold layers of rich ragù and béchamel. The ragù lesson focuses on building flavor through slow-simmered aromatics and proper meat-to-tomato balance; béchamel is reduced to a silky consistency designed to lift the lasagna rather than drown it. Along the way the instructor demonstrates practical tips — how to weigh dough, prevent gummy pasta, and get even layers when baking — skills that translate to weeknight cooking back home.
Why this class stands out in Fargo’s winter-fed Midwestern food scene is its combination of technique and conviviality: it’s equal parts culinary school and date-night atmosphere. The fall-inspired menu nods to local seasonal produce while staying firmly in Italian tradition, making it an accessible bridge between rustic comfort food and technical cooking. Bee Mittleider and the Deep Blue Seafood team bring professional kitchen standards to a public class without the intimidation.

Bring curiosity, an appetite, and a phone to photograph the final bake.

Expect to leave with printed recipes, technique notes, and enough lasagna to share—plus the confidence to replicate the dish at home.
