This was a knife skills class so we did not cook anything. We learned to cut using a big knife.

Our expert knife skills with Chef Johnathan was wonderful! It was very informative and we got a lot of chances to practice. Making a pineapple salsa was a nice final challenge. The location inside the restaurant was very nice and it was easy to see the chef as he demonstrated. We were allowed to take home the practice chopped veggies to make stock at home if we wanted.

Booked the class Farm-to-Table Feast with Chef Paula in North Bethesda (Pike & Rose)
Veggie meal with chef Patrick (not Paula). a great experience. only feedback is trying to use less plastic (small containers for ingredients and spoons for tasting).

Booked the class Signature Croissant Making with Chef Paula in North Bethesda (Pike & Rose)
Chef Jess was great. She was knowledgeable, fun, and a great teacher.
Mauree H.
Booked the class Gourmet Beef Wellington - Date Night with Chef Paula in North Bethesda (Pike & Rose)
My husband and I both enjoyed our cooking class experience with Chef Patrick and team. The location where it was held was great and the kitchen/room was set up perfectly for hands-on participation by everyone (about 16 participants). We were pleasantly surprised how much easier it was (than we thought it would be) to prepare Beef Wellington. Sides were simple, but paired nicely with Beef Wellington - the complete meal was delicious.
