Pasta Making Cooking Class and Lunch at Trio Palm Springs

A New Class. New Pasta. A Can't-Miss Experience at Trio with Executive Chef Gladis Lizarraga.

Calling all pasta-lovers! Enjoy this special opportunity to learn the art of pasta making in a hands-on session led by Trio Palm Springs’ Executive Chef, Gladis Lizarraga. During this workshop, Lizarraga will take things to the next level with a brand-new, hands-on class dedicated to one of Italy’s most beloved (and impressive!) pastas: fresh, handmade cheese tortellini. This workshop dives into the art of rolling, filling, and folding tortellini completely from scratch. She will guide you step by step, sharing her techniques, tips, and passion as you transform simple ingredients into delicate, flavor-packed pasta pillows. You’ll also learn how to pair your tortellini with one of her irresistible signature sauces.

You’ll get your hands dirty, ask questions, laugh a little—and yes, you’ll take home both a recipe card and your own house-made tortellini, ready to cook and enjoy later.

And because this is Trio, the experience doesn’t end at the cutting board.

After the class, sit back and relax as you enjoy a chef-prepared pasta lunch paired with wine, served in Trio’s vibrant dining room. The space itself is part of the experience — a stunning modern mid-century Turonnett building designed in 1953 by legendary architects John Porter Clark and Albert Frey, blending Palm Springs history with Trio’s bold, modern energy.

Whether you’ve taken one of our sold-out classes before or this is your first time, this tortellini workshop is a whole new experience—and spots will go fast.

Come roll, fill, fold, sip, and savor with us.
