WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Austin

We cooked the Spanish meal which included Patatas Bravas, Seafood Paella and Churro with dark chocolate dip.
The patatas were delicious and the dip took it to another level. The paella was very flavorful and the churros were light and fluffy.
Chef Danushka was patient with our questions and we learned other things beyond what the Spanish feast called for.
Me and my friend had a great and highly recommend it to anyone looking to have fun and learn pro way to cook.

Chef Zach never disappoints. Even after taking several classes with him, we still walk away learning something new every time. We recently did the Greek cooking class, and as always, he struck the perfect balance between being an incredible teacher and a natural entertainer. He has a way of breaking things down so cooking feels approachable, easy, and genuinely fun. You don’t just follow a recipe—you actually understand what you’re doing and why. Highly recommend any class with him!

I gained a ton of confidence in my chicken breast cooking, and chef's fun energy powered us through! I actually feel like I could do what we did at home... and it wasn't too tough. Even the risotto seemed really straightforward... and those nutella brownies rocked. I'm excited to sign up for another class with chef Danushka again, soon!
