Susan N.
Booked the class Spanish Paella & Tapa Night with Chef Yani in Downtown Chicago (Logan Square)
Chef Yani has an impressive background. We learned so much AND, at the same time, had an enjoyable, relaxing experience.
Karen M.
Booked the class A Taste of Italian Classics with Chef Janet
What a delicious Italian meal we prepared ! The evening flew by as we all participated in the prep. Our budding chefs gained confidence and seasoned cooks some new tricks!
Victor B.
Booked the class From Savory to Sweet Bakes with Chef Janet
This was a Christmas gift for my wife and i tagged along. We baked Gluten-free and Gluten-full rolls, scones and cinnamon rolls. We had a great time. My wife was able to learn from a Professional and we had a great time. We'll definitely do it again in the future. Thanks
Sandra Vazquez .
Booked the class Fabulous Croissants with Chef Eric in Northern Suburbs (Streeterville)
Chef Eric was enthusiastic, charismatic, and incredibly supportive throughout the class. Chef stepped in exactly when needed and shared quick, helpful tips that made preparing the dish so much easier. Both dishes were absolutely delicious — but the Roasted Leek and Gruyère Croissant was truly top tier! I’m already looking forward to booking another class in the near future.

I had an AMAZING experience with Chef Titik! From the time that I entered her lovely space, I was greeted with a warm and welcoming greeting. The selection of the meal was great. The history of the food and culture was intriguing. I was intrigued by the interaction and the end result of the finished product. We all dined together and it felt like I was eating with family.
