The class is was just “okay.” We could have used some more attention. We were promised by the instructor that two assistants would be helping with the class. However, they were loud and distracting in the background talking and helping “Chef Monica” prepare for her next class and neglected to help our instructor other than occasionally throwing out trash. I almost cut myself twice and no one seemed to notice. The instructor got off-topic a lot too. I’d like to have a more personalized experience. There was not much monitoring of the customers and I felt a bit lost at times. Assistants that were dedicated toward our class and not “Chef Monica’s” would have been helpful.

More 1-1 instruction from the assistants would have been very helpful. None of them helped us. They were loud and distracting as they were helping Chef Monica prepare for her next class. If our instructor would have stayed more on point rather than story-telling throughout the class, I would have found the class more useful. Overall, I thought the class was 'just OK'. However, I would still consider signing up for another class.

My teenage daughter and her dad had an amazing time cooking together. It was the perfect gift for them to not only spend quality time together but also celebrate how great of a dad he is.
