WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in the Bay Area

We had a most enjoyable cooking experience last night with Chef Lorenzo. He put us to work prepping much of the food and supervised as we cooked. He talked me through how to cook octopus which he brought to the house already cooked purely in the interest of time. I kind of hoped the octopus salad would be the top item for the night. It was. An added feature was that as we dined on the dishes he had us make, he washed the dishes. Wow! Five stars out of five for Chef Lorenzo and his Med. cooking class! Rich in San Leandro

What a great and informative experience. I've been cooking for over 60 years and I still learned heaps. I highly recommend Chef Matt.

You need to improve your communication. I became very apprehensive when I sent 3 messages via your website to the chef and no answer til the afternoon of the day before the event. Then he shows up 25 min late with no forewarning. Very embarrassing and cause of anxiety for me. Lorenzo was charming, very knowledgable about the food prep and cooking, very fun. I did give him a tip as he was leaving.

This is an overdue review for an incredible time with Chef Eric! My boyfriend and I took his French Pastry class around Valentine's Day and it was such a great learning experience. Eric walked us through all the steps, showed us his techniques of making the perfect dough, and also sent us home with extra dough so we could make a second galette at home on our own. Overall, highly recommend Chef Eric and we're looking forward to taking more of his classes!

We loved our chocolate confections class with Chef Elham! She was so knowledgeable and made the experience really fun.

Chef Elham was really well-organized and generous with her advice, even about cooking techniques that weren't explicitly related to the class. (For example, she gave really good tips on knife skills, pans to use, and other tips). I was impressed that the class got to do and learn so much.

Chef Eloise was very knowledgeable about macarons and was very friendly. For such a technical dish, she made it fun and easy to follow along. The one suggestion I would make is for her to play some soft music in the background to add to the ambiance of the experience.

Chef Zenaidy's class was delicious, professional and fun! I learned many great keto tips and tricks, and cooking techniques. Her class was definitely worth it.

Chef Lamia was amazing! It was a perfect way for my friends and I to spend the evening together. She made us feel so welcome in her home. The pace and format of the class enabled us to balance observing and learning with cooking, which was a very relaxing pace. She shared practical tips and her passion for cooking--and was a great storyteller! The icing was sitting down to enjoy the delicious meal we had created together. Chef Lamia is a treasure!

We came to visit San Francisco for a Bachelorette Party and we wanted something a little more relaxed during the day. Lamia made sure we had a great time! The food was fantastic and she made us feel right at home. She let us cook the meal hands on so we can remember how to put the ingredients together. I 100% recommend her to my friends and family, thank you again Chef Lamia!!

Lamia was absolutely wonderful -- such a great host that made this feel like a dinner with old friends. The food was delicious and the care she took with every ingredient and step was always visible. What a fantastic experience -- we hope to do an evening with Lamia again soon. Thank you Lamia!!

We loved the class, very informative with the right amount of work done for you mixed with hands on aspects. Tons of donuts, went home full with a to go box as well. Ryan was awesome and clearly knows what he's doing in terms of making donuts and running classes. I'll be recommending to friends and family for sure!

A very wonderful experience! Chef ryan was very knowledgeable and a great teacher. The class itself was great. We got to learn and then we got to bake and be creative. Definitely would book again!

Zoe T.

Chef Christine was very knowledgeable and the class was lots of fun. We served the breads we baked to some guests and they all thought it was delicious. A fantastic date activity and lots of great food to eat during AND after!

Great class. We have been trying to make macarons for quite a while with varying degrees of success. Chef Eloise showed us the proper techniques with many tips. CanвЂ™t wait to try another batch soon.

Chef Jean was awesome!!! So hilarious and fun!! We loved how he sprinkled in science while explaining how the flavors are harmonized and elevated! Truly a wonderful experience full of laughter, education, and yummy treats!

Chef Christine was great.В It was clear she was knowledgable in the field of sweet breads and was able to troubleshoot some small hangups we experienced along the way. Moreover she was really organized which allowed us to bake 3 full bread recipes in just 3 hours, allowing us to take home our creations to share with our loved ones.В

William T.

Christine not only taught us how to bake but also showed us the fundamentals behind bread. She was very hospitable and incorporated breaks between the lessons. I highly recommend taking her class.

Such a good time. CouldnвЂ™t wait to go home and try out all the recipes on the family.

Our pie-making class was wonderful! In just one evening, we made sweet potato pie, apple crumble, chocolate bourbon pecan tart, and extra pie dough! Christine taught us techniques for the next time we make pie or tart desserts so that they are just a notch closer to what you'd find in a professional bakery (flaky crust, clean edges, learning how to tell when pie is done, etc.). I loved Christine's approach to baking- not fussy or tool-intense. She gave really helpful advice and feedback throughout the class and let us do everything so we were actually learning and not just watching. Christine is warm, funny, personable, and talented. It was a joy to bake with her for an evening and we highly recommend her for any baking class!

Melissa B.

Christine was very knowledgable about bread-making. The class was very structured and easy to follow. We left with so much yummy bread!

Andy M.

Eloise is a professional and has no issue sharing her baking secrets! Where some may wish for more hands lessons, I felt the amount of work applied by all parties made it very enjoyable! We definitely recommend Eloise and her beautiful location.

Nader C.

I did the lava cake and floorless chocolate cake with my girlfriend. Chef Jean was highly entertaining, and the desserts were delicious (coming from a guy who is picky about sweets). We had a lot of fun with him, and would highly recommend this experience!

Marc B.

Super friendly. Made the experience very fun and the cream puffs were delicious!

10/13/2018

Chef Jean was friendly and fun! He was very informative of the science behind baking and surprised us with his comedic side!

Evelyn L.

Fantastic results! Chef Eliose did a wonderful job of allowing each of us to participate in the baking process, and the outcome far exceeded our expectations. We each got to take home a dozen beautiful macarons, and she even gave us a bottle of bellini to enjoy.

Chef Lamia's Morrocan Tagine class was all I could ask for a cooking class. The class was interactive, and she taught us all the steps and let us do most parts of the work. Ingredients were organic and high quality, and we all enjoyed all the dishes afterward. Her place was also beautiful, and she was a great host as well as a great chef.

Kate B.

08/11/2018

Chef Eloise organized a very clear, easy to follow experience. She shared great tips on top of the recipes & the results were delicious! Thank you for a fun day!!!

Lovely time with Chef Jean Yves. Lots of laughs, lots of sugar, lots of love for France. Happy Bastille Day. And thank you for everything.

Diana P.

It was a really great experience to learn how to do macarons. This 2h class mostly goes over the process of how macarons are done, be part of preparing the creams and then get to form your own macarons. Our macarons were delicious, though nobody told us until now that you actually need to have patience and wait 24-48 until is recommended for them to be eaten :D.

We arrived to make a basic layer cake, and we left with a spectacular dessert. It was fun to make, interesting, but a bit challenging with his French accent. Overall, an enjoyable cooking class!
