This class was great. We love Ramen and this meal tasted like something we would have at a nice restaurant. So happy I can make this at home.

I really enjoyed this experience. Our chef was knowledgeable and helpful. This was my first time cooking Korean food and the food was delicious. Great choice for all 3 recipes. The recipes were easy to follow. I am looking forward to trying another online cooking class.
