Rachel N. Rachel N.

We had a great time at this class. Chef Tess was very knowledgeable and passionate about cooking. We are pretty beginner-level, but she gave a mix of tips for beginners and for more advanced chefs. She was also a lot of fun to work with - telling funny stories and jokes and helping the whole group stay engaged. All of the food was delicious, and she provided all of the recipes so that we can make everything at home. We would take a class with her again. :)

Chef Tess was great! She is very knowledgable and I learned a lot just watching and listening. The food was amazing - I can't wait to try to make the ramen!

Booked the class Making Pasta From Scratch with Chef Tess in Portland (Rosemont)

We had such a great time with Chef Tess! She really knows her stuff and made the whole experience super fun. Not only did she share tons of cooking tips and tricks, but she also kept us laughing and engaged the whole time. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone—whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned cook, you’ll have a blast and learn a lot. Thanks again, Chef Tess, for an awesome experience!
