Cooking Class - A Taste of Classic Japan - NYC

Would highly recommend Chef Kenneth for any occasion. Super knowledgeable and we learned so many knife skills and tips and tricks we can do in the kitchen as well. The whole process was fun, and there was a good amount of leftovers. We really appreciate how he took the time to teach us and cleaned up for us too. It was also easy to converse with him as well and had the best time!

Had the best time at a private cooking class with Chef Kenneth! He was super personable from the start and made the whole night fun while teaching us the proper way to make miso soup, sushi, tempura, and dessert. The food was amazing—plus, we had leftovers! Such a great experience overall, and I’d 100% recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and hands-on way to learn some new cooking skills.

Excellent experience. The food was fresh, delicious and plentiful. Chef Kenneth explained each dish and demonstrated techniques based on our interest. He was helpful and insightful. A very fun experience, would definitely do it again.

Kenneth was great! We had so much fun and learned how to make so many new things - will definitely be hiring Kenneth for another event in the future.

Ken was awesome, great teacher and fun to cook with. Food was 10/10 would recommend this class to anyone who likes good vibes and good food

Everything was delicious and accessible, and we couldn't believe we made sushi ourselves! Chef Kenneth was friendly, helpful, fun and extremely knowledgable about Japanese cuisine. A truly memorable experience.

Chef Ken was great-had a relaxed easygoing but professional manner. He came with everything he needed short of a blender which we provided for and assorted pots/pans. We learned a lot-and were put to work in a fun voluntary manner..our groups got their hands dirty from time to time but Ken also cooked/kept things moving forward as we were also catching up while watching/learning. I was impressed by the time saving use of the blender and various shortcuts learned to save time/effort that provided delicious results! Chef Ken taught us how easy some of these dishes were to make-incredible arancini in a marinara sauce, a fantastic Caesar salad w homemade dressing, homemade gnocchi in a Gorgonzola sauce, and delicious homemade cannoli w chocolate chip ricotta filling! He did a great job of passing tips and tricks along the way.. Our group learned a lot and agreed we would like to recreate some of these dishes at home again. I would recommend working w Chef Ken for your next cooking lesson/dinner party!

Loved the class! And the food was delicious. Highly recommend.

Chef Kenneth was amazing! He arrived right on time, taught us so much, and was so incredibly personable. It felt like we were cooking and being taught by a friend. The dishes we made were AMAZING. He showed us that cooking doesn't have to be needlessly complicated to be delicious. He was beyond courteous and great to speak with. I learned a lot of tricks from him that I will be implementing from now on with cooking. I would definitely hire him again!

Chef Kenneth was amazing!!!! We learned so much from him. He was very personable and made the cooking experience so fun. We are looking forward to booking with him again soon. Highly recommend Kenneth for your next booking. He is the best.

Five stars aren’t enough for the food and the thoughtful presence of Chef Kenneth in our kitchen. Every dish was better than the last, without being baroque or complicated, just fresh whole ingredients that were superbly prepared. We are super grateful and would recommend him to anyone.

Chef Kenneth was incredible! Everyone at the dinner raved about every single course, and in particular the swordfish and beef tartare. And Kenneth maintained professionalism and composure at all times, even amongst a rampaging two year old and his exacting grandmother. I recommend Chef Kenneth highly!

He was amazing. Kind, patient, knowledgeable, and generous. Would take his other classes again 10/10. It was a great time.

The food was spectacular, thank you!

We had an amazing dinner experience and learned how to cook a number of Italian dishes. The food was spectacular and chef Ken was organized and friendly. The experience was not rushed and we found it to be a great value. We highly recommend cooking with chef Ken and recommend him to our friends.

Great cooking great conversation Chef Ken can cook!

This was really an amazing class! Chef Kenneth has very relaxed good energy, and was an excellent teacher. We took turns watching him explain and prepare certain parts of the meal, and then we prepped every part we wanted to try our hand at (which were most parts). The food was incredible when it all came out and we even had leftovers we enjoyed happily the next day. Thanks Chef Kenneth!
