Booked the class The Art of Homemade Tamales with Chef Karen

Chef Karen gave us an unforgettable, hands-on experience learning the art of making tamales. From whipping the masa to filling, folding, and carefully wrapping each one, she made the entire process approachable, meaningful, and so much fun. We loved every part of it â€” especially frying our own tortilla chips and making fresh guacamole from scratch! It was interactive, delicious, and surprisingly empowering to create everything ourselves. Chef Karenâ€™s patience, warmth, and passion for sharing tradition truly shined. She didnâ€™t just teach recipes â€” she shared culture, stories, and heart. The kitchen was filled with laughter, incredible aromas, and genuine connection. We were also celebrating a birthday, and when she sang a soulful birthday song to our friend Yvette, it was pure magic. Such a beautiful, personal touch that made the day even more special. We left with new skills, full hearts, and very happy stomachs. Highly recommend Chef Karen to anyone looking for an authentic, fun, and memorable culinary experience! â€” Arlene

We had a delightful evening, with excellent teaching, delicious food and lots of good humor. Chef Maggie was well-organized and well/prepared, and made the cooking lesson meaningful as well as practical and entertaining. We gave a tip directly.

Allison A.

Booked the class Vegan Dinner in Tuscany with Chef Maggie in South Bay & Peninsula (Menlo Park)

This was fun, informative, and delicious! Maggie made a custom menu for us and was extremely positive and accommodating. She was extremely professional and prepared, and she was totally unfazed by our rather small kitchen. Highly recommend!

Chef Karen was so fun and informative during our pizza making class. She brought joy into the kitchen and was very patient in guiding four people working on four separate tasks all at once. The three sauces we made from scratch were delicious and all worked so well together.

We are so appreciative of Chef Karen for coming to our home and sharing her cooking skills. She made the experience so special, not only encouraging my husband and I along the way, but since we were doing this class for my husbands birthday, she brought flowers and a birthday candle. Thank you!

Yogesh O.

Booked the class Handcrafted Italian Meal with Chef Karen

Chef Karen was absolutely spectacular. She accommodated our special request for the date of our cooking class and did wonderfully with me, my wife, and our two little kids (4 & 6 years old) -- she even planned a little surprise for my wife birthday! The food was amazing, everyone was involved in the cooking, and it was such an enjoyable evening. Chef Karen is a such a warm hearted person and fully recommend her for your next cooking class!

Evan N.

Booked the class A Taste of South India with Chef Pooja in East Bay (San Ramon)

Chef Pooja showed my partner and I how to make some very tasty uttapams, dosas with a curry potato filling, and ladoo, all of which were new experiences for us! She was an expert guide in the cooking process, and did most but not all of the prep work, so we could participate a little bit in the prep as well as all the stovetop cooking. We also really liked the chutneys that were part of the dish! Pooja was also very personable and was easy to hang out with as we prepared and ate the food. We had a mix-up with timing for a previous reservation and she was very accommodating, and helped to plan a new time as well. All around a friendly, professional experience.

Mei T.

Our experience with Chef Doug was fantastic! Not only was the food amazing, but he was wonderful company to have over for the evening and he left our kitchen cleaner than it was when he arrived. We canâ€™t wait to try the recipes he left us again and canâ€™t recommend him enough!

Evan S.

Booked the class Handmade Pasta Workshop with Chef Doug in San Francisco (Nob Hill)

Chef Doug was amazing. The recipes were delicious and he was very hands on in the lesson. He was also extremely friendly, and made great conversation.

William G.

Fantastic! Would highly recommend!

Morgan L.

Booked the class Paella and Tapas with Chef Daniel in San Francisco (Potrero Hill)

We had a great time, and the tapas and paellas that we were making are something that I can continue to make at home. It was delicious. But more importantly, Chef Daniel is patient and thoughtful. He shares his experience organizing one's kitchen, prepping before cooking, using a knife effectively, and managing the heat during cooking, all of those little things that make up an excellent dish. Something you couldn't get from merely reading and following the recipe. It is about learning great cooking habits and workflow. One tends to want to cook more often if one has a great workflow and process to achieve the desired outcome.

Elliot E.

Booked the class Vegetarian North Indian Cuisine with Chef Pooja in East Bay (San Ramon)

We had a great time. Chef Pooja was well prepared with everything laid out and was very knowledge with all the answers to our questions. The food was great and we even had leftovers for the next day. We've already incorporated a number of her techniques into cooking other dishes which has definitely elevated their flavor.

Tatsiana M.

Booked the class The Best of Bengal with Chef Parsati in San Jose (Edenvale)

Amazing experience of an authentic multi-course meal. Convenient spotless cooking space, comfortable kitchen utensils, mise en place of everything needed when we arrived. All the necessary covid-related precautions. The instructions were very thoughtful and informative, with lots of tips on how to handle authentic ingredients, spices, and how to adjust the recipe to someone's taste. Chef Parsati was super attentive and delightful to learn from. And, of course, the meal was fantastically delicious. Amazing experience for a date night! Thank you, chef Parsati!

Chef Joni was a pleasure to cook with. She was inviting and warm. I surprised my husband with the Italian cooking class for his birthday and we had such a wonderful time.

Jennifer S.

Booked the class Vibrant Flavors of South America with Chef Ruel in San Jose (North San Jose)

My husband and I recently attended a cooking session with Chef Ruel. From the very beginning, he made all of us feel welcome and comfortable. His apartment is super clean and organized, and the space is truly ideal for this type of event. Chef Ruel is very knowledgeable about cooking techniques, recipes and skills, yet he introduces this knowledge in an easy-to-understand format. He asked lots of questions of us, and his goal was to make the experience fun and non-intimidating. That being said, we had so much fun, the food was absolutely amazing, and we came away with many great ideas. We plan to make this exact meal for an upcoming dinner party that we are hosting for friends. I hope to take more classes with Chef Ruel!

Crystal S.

Jeff H.

Booked the class Mediterranean Californian Fusion with Chef Ziva in South Bay & Peninsula (South Los Altos)

We had a great time cooking with Ziva! The recipes are delicious, her home is warm and inviting, and the experience is meticulously prepared and well organized. Ziva has great tips and the class is very hands-on. She goes out of her way to explain everything you are interested in learning - knife skills, where to source ingredients, family stories about recipes etc. Ziva is also a lot of fun to learn from! My family and I will definitely be back for more experiences. Did I mention everything was super delicious? 100% recommended!

Chef Drea was absolutely amazing! She made us feel so warm and really taught us what cooking is all aboutâ€”love!

Highly recommend her and her knowledge of cuisine (we took the sushi class) for anyone who is just beginning or even has a good level of experience!

Christine H.

Booked the class Modernized Spanish Tapas with Chef Ruel in San Jose (North San Jose)

Cooking class with Chef Ruel was a fantastic experience! My boyfriend and I attended the Spanish Tapas class right before Valentine's day. Chef Ruel had a lovely setup with all the necessary ingredients at hand. Another couple was also present for the class and we all split up to chop and prepare different parts of the meal. Chef Ruel provided some basic cooking tips as well ad advanced instruction on how everything comes together for the final presentation. We had a delightful time taking the class and really enjoyed spending the evening with the other couple, Chef Ruel, and Shelly.

Teddy S.

Booked the class Wood Fired Neapolitan Style Pizza with Chef Phoebe in San Francisco (West Portal)

Was hoping it was a bit more in depth like getting the fire going or making the dough. Just rolling the dough and adding toppings to put in the oven wasn't what I had expected. To be fair, Phoebe did answer questions but the focus then got further diluted in making donuts and gelato ... I thought I signed up for a wood fired pizza making class

Erin Nicole V.

Booked the class Crash Course in Curry with Chef Sara

Chef Sara was awesome and the experience overall was amazing! How cool to have a private chef come to your home and teach just you and your friends!! I mean, the whole idea of this service is absolutely incredible and I can't believe I never knew it existed before now! We felt like chef Sara was very fun and knowledgeable, and extremely savvy in the kitchen! We felt like real stars learning from her and we can't wait to find another excuse to do this again! Thank you Chef Sara!!! We appreciate you!!!! ??
