Was a decently fun night but echoing some comments I've just gone back and looked at now. Did not realize this was going to be a 4 person event - we went as a couple and were surprised we were then paired with another set of people. A bit disappointing when being unexpectedly paired up with strangers to split up tasks (though our partners ended up being great people!). The class also felt rushed, where we were told to take a tray out from our area and by the time we did that the instructor was already telling the next step. Led to a bit of confusion from time to time and a lot of asking for repeat instructions. Overall wouldn't recommend for the price

Excellent organization and clear instructions made it a fun time for our group of mother, grandmother and two teenagers.

We were not a fan of this cooking class, especially when so many great cooking classes exist in NYC. The instructor knew what they were doing, but didn't seem especially engaged with the class. One big issue was that this was billed as a date night cooking class, yet my partner and I were at a table with another couple and the four us cooked a meal together. In other words, the steps were split between four people, so my partner and I didn't complete the entire recipe (i.e. we cooked the rice, they fried the shrimp, we cut the vegetables, etc.). At a cooking class, I'd expect to make the entire recipe myself (or at least the entire recipe with my partner). In addition, the sanitary precautions were pretty terrible. We cut raw shrimp with a knife and cutting board and then were told to use the same knife and cutting board to cut the sashimi grade salmon. Definitely not sanitary. Finally, the amount of food we made was pretty small... we grabbed a few slices of pizza afterward. Short answer: find a different class; they exist.
