In this class, you’ll see why everyone saves room for dessert at Oleana! Pastry Chef Nik Mastalerz, known as the restaurant's dessert wizard, uses filo to create many of his signature sweets. Filo is more than just an ingredient for baklava; it's the foundation of several traditional Turkish and Eastern Mediterranean dishes. You’ll learn how to handle and store filo, and how to combine it with various fillings and caramels to create flaky, indulgent desserts perfect for Valentine’s Day–or any day! Nik will demonstrate his version of bougatsa (chocolate banana semolina pudding with coffee caramel), pistachio katmer with satsuma frozen yogurt, and a filo tart with date custard and pomegranate caramel.

A note about our dessert classes: In addition to the recipes above, you’ll also enjoy a light savory meal. And don’t worry when your sweet tooth gets satisfied - we will send you home with leftovers to enjoy later!
