Was a fun night out for us. Laura is a laid back person that conveys cooking techniques well.

I'm still thinking of the beef and mushroom we had in Chef Laura's cooking class during our trip to Washington, DC. Laura is a very experienced and super nice chef. She knows a lot, can explains things well and can really help you make delicious dishes (as she demonstrated in the case of the beef with mushrooms) that are much better than the food in almost all restaurants. I also like her style of cooking which is low in fat and rather healthy especially for a red meat dish. The mushroom soup also turned out to be delicious although maybe a little bit too salty - but don't worry, you can always make the stock thinner as the chef explained ;)

What a fun night! Chef Laura was an excellent teacher and host. We honed our knife skills chopping up veggies for the soup, stuffed mushrooms, and sauce. We learned all about different types of mushrooms and how to clean and cook them. So many things to learn! And in the end, the meal was delicious and we had plenty of leftovers to take home along with the recipes. (My mother-in-law was also pleased that she and Chef Laura attended the same university... LOL.)
