I got the cooking class as a birthday gift for my daughter and she had a blast! It was the highlight of her birthday trip. She absolutely loved the smoke bubbles.

We had a wonderful, relaxing experience. The atmosphere was fun, the prepping was already set up and the food was delicious.
We had an incredible experience in the cooking class with Chef Emmanuelle! Isabel, Annette, and Juan all left the class feeling inspired, full, and genuinely impressed.
Chef Emmanuelle’s teaching skills are exceptional—she explains each step clearly, keeps the class engaging, and makes even complex techniques feel approachable. Her passion for cooking really shines through, and she creates such a warm and welcoming environment for everyone.
The menu was absolutely delicious. The fiery scampi had the perfect balance of heat and flavor, and the seafood medley was fresh, beautifully prepared, and incredibly satisfying. We also loved learning how to make fettuccine pasta from scratch—it was such a fun and rewarding experience, and Chef guided us through it with patience and expertise. Every dish we made tasted like something from a high-end restaurant.
We would highly recommend this class to friends and anyone looking to sharpen their cooking skills while having a great time. We’re already looking forward to taking more classes with Chef Emmanuelle in the future!

Had a phenomenal evening. Learned so much about cooking pasta but also knife safety and equipment maintenance. Chef Emma makes cooking easy, fun, delicious, nutritious, and easy to replicate at home. Chef Emma is fun, sweet, patient, and talented! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a bit of fun solo or on date night.

Such a fun and unique experience! This was just for my partner and me, so we went to the chef’s studio/home. The space was incredibly inviting, clean, and well-kept.
Not only was the food absolutely perfect, but she really went out of her way to make the entire experience feel special. She took the time to explain the dishes, sat down and talked with us, and made us feel genuinely welcome and comfortable throughout the evening.
It was such a personal and memorable experience, and we’d absolutely recommend it to others. We left the with a new knowledge of not just vegan food, but upscale dishes and preparations.
Also very LGBTQIA+ friendly, which made us feel even more at ease and welcome!

We had a fantastic cooking experience with Chef Emma!! I’ve been cooking vegan meals for many years and was hoping to learn new techniques or tips as our family did this class - I was definitely not disappointed! She shared wonderful instruction on customizing the food to our liking, and she gave several suggestions for vegan ingredient staples to add to our pantry. To top it all off she created such a wonderful, relaxed environment for us to cook in and enjoy the experience. My kids especially felt encouraged to try some new customizations for their creations, and they both appreciated the tips she gave that apply not only to what we prepared, but to all cooking situations. We unanimously recommend taking a class with Chef Emma!!

We made bread and crepes. We learned how to make sure the pan used for the crepes was really hot by putting some oil in it and then using the end of a wooden spoon to see if the oil would try to fry the spoon. Once that happened it was ready for the crepe batter. It was a lot of fun and she was very engaging and helpful.

We did the pizza making class and had an absolute blast! Chef Emma was an exceptional host and we can't wait to book another class with her. She was so kind, fun, and went into detail explaining the techniques for making the dough and we can't wait to try it at home! The ingredients were fresh and well organized and we enjoyed the other courses as well. Can't recommend Chef Emma enough!

We learned to cook Indian curry and naan bread. What a great experience. Chef Emmanuella was super knowledgeable and helpful. She gave advice but also allowed us freedom to make the dish our own. Adding whichever spices we wanted. While we were waiting for other guests to arrive she taught us proper knife skills and cutting techniques. She kept our attention and allowed us to be the chefs. Our experience was very pleasant.

Thoroughly enjoyed the Crepes & Bread making class...Chef Emma provided many helpful hints and took away the intimidation factor. The class was small and we had some extra time while waiting for the bread, so Chef took the time to teach us a few other handy techniques. Will definitely be booking another call with her!

Today we made very delicious Mediterranean food. It was a lovely cozy atmosphere. Chef Emmanuelle is so nice and was able to tailor the experience to our own comfortability with cooking. We enjoyed every step of the cooking process. We wore aprons and hats and our chef had many ingredients prepared to allow for a smooth cooking experience. Would love to do this again sometime!

Had an amazing time with Chef Emmanuelle. She made us feel right at home with all the jokes that were said and would join in from time to time. Made it truly feel cozy. She encouraged us to make the dishes our own only providing a basic version and letting us take control of the taste and the seasoning of the dishes.

From the moment Emanuelle entered our home until we sadly hugged goodbye, the experience was like a
long-anticipated family reunion. The customizes French menu was scrumptious. The friendship was instant. And the cooking tips shared by Emmanuelle as she created her magic will be added to my personal recipe book. What a fantastic time for us.
And many thanks to you, Lauren, for your persistence in ensuring my wishes were fulfilled. WHAT A TEAM

One of the best family events I have had in a very long time. We went with my son and his wife, and it was reminiscent of taking the kids to Disney Land. Chef Emmanuelle guided us, yet made it fun. All four of us learned so much from her. The food was great, and the company was even better. Chef Emmanuelle shares her passion and her skills. I recommend taking a class from her regardless of your experience. Do what I did, make it a family night and you won't regret it. We will be back.
