Great food. Loved Jalen. He did a great job explaining how to cook the meal and answering all of our random questions . It wasn’t very hands on, but depending on what you are looking for this could be a good or bad thing.

Mediterranean meal was delicious. Definitely making some of the hummus at home. Was able to learn a lot of tips and tricks,from simple things like cooking rice to more complex things like cutting techniques.
