I booked the Bourbon Street class as a surprise for my boyfriend, to celebrate our third anniversary. It was such a blast!!
Chef John has such a fun personality, great stories, and amazing cooking skills. He answered ALL of my questions and taught us many techniques (verbally and hands on) for presentation, knife skills, kitchen tools, and more. He made sure to snap some pictures of us,
The food we had was absolutely delicious and we were able to take some home! Chef John was great with accommodating my gluten sensitivity as well. We both had an amazing time and left feeling a little sad that it was over. Would 100% recommend!

The evening was filled with good food and lots of laughs. Chef John’s home kitchen was comfortable and well appointed. He showed us how to make Sushi and then let us practice making it ourselves. The Sushi was delicious and the the hours flew by. Great date night!

Chef John is hands down one of the best chefs I've had the pleasure to learn from. His passion for cooking shines through every step of the class, and he knows exactly how to break down complex techniques so anyone can follow along and succeed.
What really stood out was how personable and patient he was — making the whole experience fun and stress-free while pushing us to elevate our skills. The food we made wasn’t just delicious; it felt like a dish you’d actually be proud to serve to guests at home.
If you want a cooking class that’s both inspiring and practical, Chef John is your go-to. I’d recommend his classes to anyone serious about cooking or just looking to level up and enjoy the process.
