Our chef Lyn was professional, patient and humorous during class. My son paid for the class as a birthday gift for my sister and me. We had a ball and have been recommending the class to all our friends.

Chef Lisa led a great Italian cooking class that I thoroughly enjoyed. Not only did she make it fun, but I learned so much about proper cooking techniques. I plan to attend more classes.
