A lovely class! Thank you for the experience

Pedro S. Pedro S.

Chef Etka was a lovely host and educator! My partner and I throughly enjoyed the entire experience from beginning to end! The food tasted great— and she also had us gauge the flavor of the food— tasting at various intervals of the cooking process to ensure it was to our liking. She explained that it’s more intuitive to taste the food and adjust your salt/spice versus following a recipe in a strict fashion. Chef Etka has a calm presence and creates a safe and fun learning environment. Highly recommend! We left with a recipe booklet of the dishes we cooked that evening as well.

Chef Ekta was great in explaining the pizza making process. The skills I learned in this class will be really useful when I make pizza at home. I would recommend her to any beginners who want to learn dough making.
