Also, you will learn the art of preparing a deliciously nutty forbidden rice and discover how to beautifully poach shrimp in butter. For dessert, a part custard, part froth bubbly sabayon presented as an almond tart.

Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Chef Yapo graduated from San Diego Culinary Institute and quickly learned that he loved talking about food with the customers more than working in the restaurant, so he started working for people directly with local and organic foods in 2009. Chef Yapo enjoys handmade pasta, unique flavors and global fusion flavors, and is very passionate about no-food-waste-cooking and teaching others how to do it.

Chef Yapo is great! He was so gracious with his time and even offered to walk my girlfriend and I through the entire process of the meal! We learned so much and are excited to do some more cooking on our own :)

Chef Yapo was a such an energetic and informative chef who was very patient with all of us family of five! We had a really enjoyable time learning about how to make gnocchi and gnudi and the food turned out awesome! It was a really great experience and my whole family really enjoyed it! Thank you Chef Yapo for a memorable time!

My husband and I learned so much from Chef Yapo about how to peel ginger (iâ€™be been doing it the hard way for years), peel and chop garlic, and how to season fresh fish. Cooking was fun and didnâ€™t feel like a chore. The menu he selected was delicious. We were both so proud of our time in the kitchen and canâ€™t wait to do it again with our family and friends.

Chef Yapo is a true inspiration. I won't ruin the surprise but he has a back story that will knock your socks off. He's a wonderful chef with LOADS of talent and excitement and passion for his food. His gnudi is light and soft and his excitement is palpable. Take his class, you'll learn a lot!

Chef Yapo provided a great experience for my family! We bought the cooking class for my dad as a Christmas present because he loves cooking and being with family. He was extremely thorough. Brought all of the ingredients and everything that we needed. He provided us a lot of education about cooking and the ingredients. We never knew how much work it was to make ravioli but Chef Yapo made it easy! My dad and family loved the class! Thank you!!!

Chef Yapo is an amazing chef and we are glad we attended his cooking class. We were looking for a California cuisine cooking class in San Diego and his class didn't disappoint. Highly recommended.
