Chef Danushka is such a fun personality. She's clearly incredibly talented, but she breaks down her knowledge to make cooking very approachable. Her kitchen space was spotless and elegant - a great date night idea!

Class: Modern Asian Comfort Food So much to love about Chef Susie's class! My husband and I were the seniors in the class and have been cooking for many, many years. Both of us love Asian cuisine and decided to branch out from our cooking comfort zone to a cuisine we both love. Chef presented the dishes in the time order of preparation so demonstrate how the menu could be handled in a short time for those of us who have 30-45 minutes to prepare a meal. As she prepared the stir-fry, she sprinkled the science of why the recipe was prepared as it was and how not to overcook the chicken, for example. However, the star of the dishes, and the one that most of us probably needed the most guidance with was dumplings. From sourcing the wraps to preparing the stuffing (in advance) to creating a basic dumpling fold to more intricate, decorative folds, to cooking, and--best of all--eating the finished product--Chef Susie helped me to conquer my fear of creating Asian dumplings. A wonderful experience over all! Enjoy!

Kathy F.

What an enjoyable experience for a girlâ€™s night out! Food was delicious, loved the general cooking info, and nice to get knife skills included. Chef was prepared making efficient use of the time. (Tipped in cash at the class). She deserves a min tip of 20%!

Saziya L.

Chef Aaron was so knowledgeable and inspiring! He's really friendly and easy to work with. He gave us some great tips on chopping veggies. He's got a very nice, clean house and is very accommodating. Highly recommend this class!

Stacy C.

Wonderful class with Chef Danuskha! Her home is lovely and she creates a fun and welcoming environment while teaching you many useful new skills. Our group of 5 had a great time.

Chef Aaron was amazing. This was my first time attending a cooking class and it was everything I hoped it would be and nothing I feared it might be. He was super informative, flexible, helpful, and kind. Walking through his garden and getting the opportunity to literally pick some ingredients was super cool.

Jack M.

Wow! What an experience. Chef Aaron was super professional, knowledgeable, and inviting! The kitchen is perfectly set up to entertain and provides a warm and relaxed environment to learn! I have zero complaints! We chose the sushi class and it's a bit more technical, but with his advice he had all of us making rolls like pros by the end of it.

Erin L.

Chef Aaron was wonderful! Learned so much from this class. Would highly recommend taking one of his classes.

Frankie C.

Danushka is an absolute blast. My fiancÃ© and I loved her. Sheâ€™s so spunky and we will be booking her again in the near future ?

Don D.

What an experience! Chef Aaron made us feel safe and welcome from the moment we arrived until we left. Heâ€™s a great teacher, good insights, and tips. He was patient, knowledgeable, and made our experience exceptional. We highly recommend Chef Aaron. And the food we made was awesome!!

Spencer M.

77th review! We had a lot of fun cooking Asian cuisine with Danushka. Very hands on class with lots of good cooking fundamentals. Looking forward to booking another lesson soon.

Jessica P.

Our experience with Chef Aaron was amazing! He was so inviting and welcoming, on top of being knowledgeable and helpful through the entire cooking process. The food was DELICIOUS and portions were so generous we even had some left over to take home. We're already looking forward to our next class with him.

Brennen T.

Danushka is simply amazing. Her home is gorgeous, her personality is infectious, and the food was fabulous. I can't wait to book another class with her and bring our friends!

Derek N.

Freaking awesome! My wife and I loved the class. It was a great time out and Josh was super knowledgeable and told great stories! He took all the scary stuff out of making sushi at home and we left feeling comfortable and prepared to try it in our own kitchen.

Mike H.

We had such a great time making Asian cuisine with Danushka! She was so patient in showing us the basics of food prep and even small things like holding a knife! We loved the tempora bananas with chocolate for dessert!! She even had her Christmas tree out which made the experience more festive and intimate! We will definitely be coming back!! And we would recommend her highly to any of our friends!

Robyn N.

Chef Adam was a pleasure to learn from. The sushi we made was so yummy. We look forward to taking more classes in the future.

Kevin L.

Danushka was awesome!! Loved cooking with her and learning from her. She was very personable and funny. Definitely recommend and will be back for another class :)

marjo a.

Everyone's reviews has been on point. Chef Aaron was great, hospitable, friendly, patient, knowledgeable, gracious, professional, personable, and everything else you want to have from a Chef and a teacher. We are no where close from being good cooks, but our food turned out amazing. That's credit to the teacher. We will definitely have another class with him. Thank you!!!

Lauren A.

My 11yo daughter and I had a fantastic time bonding as we learned incredibly valuable skills from Danushka (e.g. we had no idea how to hold a knife!). Iâ€™m a little scared that now that we know how, weâ€™ll be tempura frying everything from here on out! Thanks for a fantastic mother daughter date!

Sudha M.

We had a great time at the Seasonal Asian fare class! Chef Danushka made the experience both fun and informative so we learned quite a bit and the food was so good! Would definitely take a class with her again :)

Floyd J.

Great experience! I plan on doing this again!

Darby W.

We had a blast at Chef Danushka's cooking class! We learned some tips and tricks around the kitchen and the food was delicious. I highly recommend the Asian meal but we can't wait to try out some of her other options next time we are visiting Austin. Thanks, Chef!

Gabriel M.

Sushi Melanie was a great chef and teacher. The event space was a little challenging as it was an active liquor store and people were constantly entering and leaving. This created a lot of ambient noise and distraction. Outside of that - great event!

Davis M.

Amazing teacher and chef! We had a blast - would highly recommend.

Samantha P.

We had THE BEST time with Chef Danushka!!! We did the dumpling Asian exploration class and it was fantastic. Chef Danushka was very welcoming, informative, and fun to learn from. She taught us knife skills, how to fold dumplings, and so so much more. We loved being able to do the cooking and enjoy the delicious food along the way. Chef Danushka taught us so many tips and tricks that we will be using in our kitchen and cooking. Everything was amazing and just the best night. We will definitely be booking more classes with Chef Danushka!

Daniella G.

The pad thai was delicious and so easy to cook. Tita was a fabulous instructor and made the class so much fun.

Felicia L.

We took Chef Danushka's Sweet & Savory Thai Class and it was great! We learned essential and practical cooking skills and made delicious Thai food. The fish sauce for the Thai lettuce wraps was phenomenal and all the dishes tasted better than anything we've ever made before.

Nicole B.

First time weâ€™ve been able to make actually good tofu and sautÃ©ed greens thanks to chef Danushka! We had a great time and must say that you have to sign up for this class so you can try the chocolate mousse yourself!

Alissa Horrigan .

My friend gave me this experience for Christmas and it was the best gift! Chef Danushka was very knowledgable in the kitchen and I learned some things that I will be implementing in my own kitchen right away! The meal was entirely gluten free and so delicious. We made shrimp spring rolls with peanut sauce, Thai pork meatballs with rice noodles with sauce, and coconut rice pudding with candied ginger and fresh mango for dessert. I am excited to make the meal again for my family. It was a really fun time- highly recommend!

Tom L.

We cooked General Tso Chicken with black fried rice, Pork dumplings and dipping sauce and banana tempera with chocolate sauce. She was very organized and understood the importance of how to cook items in a way that was easy to follow and made it comfortable for us to try at home. She built in knife and frying skills. She allowed us to take pictures of the receipts as well as an extra one that once she understood the reason for taking the class to learn more how to cook Asian. She was professional and delightful. She did teach us how to substitute an ingredient if your run out of something. I would be will to take another class from her or recommend to a friend.
