WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Los Angeles
03/24/2025
Wonderful class from a wonderful cook. My friend and I really enjoyed our time at Chef Luana’s and highly recommend this class. We learned how to make spaghetti and fettuccine, with two different sauces. She also generously shared dessert with us.
03/16/2025
Chef Luana was great! She was thorough and patient for someone with zero experience in cooking Italian. She also gave me and my partner bruschetta as an appetizer and ice cream as dessert. She was great!
03/08/2025
Fun night out making gnocchi with chef Luana! Food was so good and we loved hearing about Italy! If you’re looking for a fun thing to do, this is a must!
03/04/2025
This is the best cooking class we have ever taken! Chef Luana is very knowledgeable and a great teacher. The pasta we made was absolutely incredible! We will definitely be coming back to another class with Chef Luana!
