Chef Polly was so welcoming and made the entire experience unforgettable! She didnâ€™t just teach us how to cook â€” she took us on a beautiful culinary and cultural journey through Korean history and flavors. Her explanations were clear, engaging, and filled with fun stories that made everyone feel comfortable and connected. I loved how she encouraged us to interact, share, and truly enjoy the process. It felt more like cooking with a friend than being in a class. Highly recommend this experience to anyone who loves learning about food and culture!

He was a wonderful chef. Explained all the preparation of the dishes. He also told us a little bit about the history of the dishes, and he was very personable. He was easy to understand, and we very much enjoyed the experience we would not hesitate to book another experience with him. He responses to text messages and is knowledgeable. Barb Hantsbarger

My friends and I booked Chef Pollyâ€™s Korean Food Essentials and it was phenomenal! She was so sweet and funny! She created such a warm and inviting environment!! My friends are experienced with cooking but not professionally trained so it was really cool to see her put on her professional chef hat and teach all of us some really handy tricks! We would definitely book a class with her again :)

Chef Wen and his Sous Chef Jing were absolutely phenomenal. We had the most amazing time learning about traditional Beijing cuisine and all the dishes were out of this world. Chef Wen is so enthusiastic and knowledgable, and he really made the experience extra special. For anyone looking to have a great time with excellent food, Chef Wen is your guy!

Booked the class Signature Italian Cuisine with Chef Lorenzo

I recently attended Chef Lorenzo's Cooking Class on Signature Italian Cuisine and it was an absolute delight! From start to finish, the experience was authentic and truly felt like a trip to Italy. Chef Lorenzo was an excellent host and his passion for cooking was evident in every dish he prepared. He shared stories about his grandmother, who was a great influence on his love of cooking, and it was clear that he has a wealth of knowledge about Italian cuisine. The class itself was very hands-on, with each participant getting the chance to help prepare and cook the dishes. Chef Lorenzo was very patient and gave clear instructions, so even those who were new to cooking were able to follow along and create delicious meals. One of the highlights of the class was trying Chef Lorenzo's grandmother's recipes, which were absolutely delicious. It was a unique and special touch that really added to the authenticity of the experience. Overall, I highly recommend Chef Lorenzo's Cooking Class on Signature Italian Cuisine. It was a fun and educational experience that left me with a newfound appreciation for Italian cooking.

I enjoyed so much the private cooking class with Chef Pooja! She is very welcoming, knowledgeable and a great host. We were walked through the recipes and felt so easy and everything we made was delicious. The class was a birthday gift for my husband and we had such a good time. Highly recommended!

Armando M.

Booked the class Signature Italian Cuisine with Chef Lorenzo

Chef Lorenzo is by far the best host Iâ€™ve ever had! Chef Lorenzo is extremely outgoing and knowledgeable about cooking. There was not one awkward moment with him as conversations changed from cooking to other topics with ease. By far the best cooking class my wife and I ever had because of his hospitality and wisdom of cooking as he can explain how to use ingredients and why to use those ingredients. He explained cooking like Iâ€™ve never heard before. Thank you chef for an amazing class! Iâ€™ll definitely be recommending my friends and Iâ€™m looking forward signing up for more classes!
