Grand Opening of Bozeman’s new French inspired kitchen store and culinary classroom: La Cuisine


La Cuisine Founder Tina Cusker found herself craving fellowship during the COVID restricted months and was inspired by current events to act on designing a store committed to providing social experiences that would bring gathering back to the heart of the home and building a stronger community through our partnerships and endeavors. Enhanced by her European culinary and travel journeys, Tina hopes to inspire La Cuisine patrons to have confidence they can once again open their homes and gather friends and family for an exceptional culinary experience.

La Cuisine offers a curated selection of gourmet cookware, cutlery and gadgets along with locally made products from artisans such as Basiclai, Lulu Pottery and Montana Block Co., and top European brands including Staub, Zwilling, and Denby. La Cuisine features a commercial kitchen for a state-of-the-art culinary learning experience. Tina has partnered with instructors and world-class chefs across the Gallatin Valley to bring forth a kitchen curriculum to serve every level of home cook from the curious beginner to the passionate foodie. Students may choose from a vast array of cuisine, technique focused and entertaining style classes.

Gift giving will be exceptionally easy thanks to gift cards, complimentary gift wrapping and a Bridal registry service.

The kitchen will be available as an intimate event space for less than 25, and commissary kitchen rentals to wholesale food providers, in addition to private cooking classes for unique celebrations and corporate team-building events.
The inaugural cooking class, Let’s Get Sauced! is scheduled for Tuesday, September 28 at 6:00PM featuring Chef Sadie Morales from Sadie’s Catering. It is the sauce that takes your dinner from ordinary to extraordinary. Participants will learn how you can transition three mother recipes into six while they sip on preselected wine pairings. James Beard award-winning Chef Tory McPhail will host the second class on Tuesday October 5th with an autumn harvest, elegant 4-course menu. Tickets for all weekly classes can be purchased online or by calling the store, and wine can be ordered from The Wine Gallery by 3PM on the day prior.

The store will host official Grand Opening festivities and ribbon cutting on Wednesday, September 29 at 4:00PM. This event, free to attend, is co-hosted by the Bozeman Chamber of Commerce and will feature autographed cookbooks, giveaways, complimentary hors d’oeuvres and store discounts.

Soon to be Bozeman’s premier gourmet cookware store and culinary classroom, La Cuisine offers more than 1,000 unique products for the kitchen and operates the most innovative cooking school in southwest Montana, with plans to conduct more than 50 classes yearly taught by local chefs and instructors with shopping also available online at www.lacuisine-bozeman.com.
