Violet, partly a cooking school and partly a restaurant, is a welcome breath of fresh air to the Westwood neighborhood. This French bistro was created by Dana Slatkin, a trained French chef, cooking instructor, cookbook author, mother and friend. We can’t wait to be back in Violet’s charming courtyard, but for now, enjoying amazing takeout and Zoom cooking classes!

ZOOM COOKING CLASSES

Violet is currently offering cooking classes via Zoom. We’ve taken them and trust us when we say this is something you won’t want to miss! Classes and kitchenware can be purchased online through their website. Here is a peek at some of their upcoming classes:

FOOD

Violet offers a wide selection of dishes for pick-up and delivery through Doordash. With gluten-free, plant-based, dairy-free and plant-based menu options, it truly has something for everyone. They offer an assortment of tasty salads: a petite gem with citrus, avocado and chevre and the ultimate caesar with homemade croutons that are to-die-for. They also serve a delectable cheese fondue, perfectly roasted chicken and even a French burger. The pomme frittes are cut for dipping into their homemade lemon aioli and harissa ketchup.
