Booked the class Sushi-Centered Feast with Chef Krong in Del Mar

Super fun experience making sushi with Chef Krong! She was incredibly attentive and took the time to clearly explain each step, which made the whole experience even better. She also took photos for us and was so thoughtful about giving us space to enjoy dinner together. She wrapped everything up quickly and left the kitchen tighty. Iâ€™d definitely recommend booking with your partner, friends, or even for a company event!

Booked the class Beginner-Friendly Sushi with Chef Paulo

We took the sushi class and learned how to do three types of rolls and hand rolls. Chef Paulo was super knowledgeable and approachable. It was a really fun experience learning how to cook the rice, cut the fish and other fillings, and learn how to roll them. We are all beginners and he helped make sure all of us were able to complete all of our rolls. I would absolutely recommend the class and chef Paulo personally

Booked the class Culinary Journey to Asia with Chef Adina in Del Mar

Such a fun girlsâ€™ night with Chef Adina! She was incredibly accommodating with my food allergy, which made the experience feel relaxed and personalized from the start. We made an amazing ahi dish together with my family, and the recipes were so approachable that weâ€™ve already remade it at home. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable and interactive night!

Booked the class Vegan Sushi for All with Chef Paulo in San Diego (Downtown)

Chef Paulo was awesome!! He was spot on in teaching us the basic of sushi making so we can make a variety of sushi rolls in the future. And we got a bonus of learning to make a hand roll. He was also very flexible and responsive in working with us on the menu/fish options. 10 stars would highly recommend and do it again!

Booked the class The Complete Guide to Sushi Making with Chef Stacy D. in Coronado

Chef Stacy was incredible! We had an amazing lesson on vegan sushi. Stacy was easy going and provided excellent instruction, and made the most of our small kitchen space (don't feel like you can't do this if you have a small kitchen- ours is tiny and she made it work effortlessly!). My fiance bought this as a birthday present and it was by far my favorite gift! Now we have the skills we need to make vegan sushi at home any time. Stacy is a delight. Thank you!!!

We had such a lovely experience with Chef Jordon on Thanksgiving for his Indian cooking class. We learned great techniques and information on all the ingredients! Plus, every dish was so flavorful and delicious! And his home overlooking the lake is serene. He went above and beyond to make our holiday memorable. We had so much fun this is going to be our new Thanksgiving tradition!

Marlisys H.

Booked the class Favorites From Thai Cuisine with Chef Supranee in San Diego (La Jolla)

My family and I had the best time with Chef Supranee during our cooking class! She was so kind and welcoming and we immediately felt so comfortable talking and cooking with her! Thai food is something we have always wanted to learn how to cook and this class did not disappoint! We cooked 4 amazing dishes together and learned just how easy Thai food can be to make! All the food tasted incredible and I personally was obsessed with the panang curry! Don't hesitate to book a class with Chef Supranee! She is the best!!

Angela R.

Booked the class Vegetarian Taste of Thailand with Chef Krong in San Diego (San Carlos)

Chef Krong was amazing to learn from! She came ready to hit the ground running, we were into prep and cooking in the first few minutes! She was incredibly warm and fun, and so easy to connect with. It felt more like cooking with a really talented and patient friend. The recipes were simple and delicious, and we feel confident we could make them again on our own with the techniques we picked up. It was also great to learn more about Thai ingredients we have been curious about!

Booked the class Thai Cooking 101 with Chef Krong

Chef Krong was amazing! She was so great at guiding us through the process and teaching us about each dish. Every dish we prepared was 10/10! And we had a lot of fun and laughs during the entire experience. Definitely recommend her!!

Franky G.

Booked the class Traditional Thai Staples with Chef Krong

I hired Chef Krong for my fiancÃ© as a Christmas gift and it was so much fun! She is very polite, funny, inclusive and makes you feel good about learning how to cook! Even if you have someone who doesnâ€™t really cook, chef Krong walks you through the entire process with patience and makes you feel like youâ€™re cooking with a friend. She cooked three courses including the Laab Gai, Moo Pad Prik Thai Dam, Gaeng Massaman Gai, and Thai Sticky Rice w/ Mango. EVERYTHING was delicious and fun to make! We appreciated how she answered questions along the way and offered alternatives/suggestions for future cooking. She gave us tips on where to buy future ingredients & introduced us to different sauces and seasonings. We are definitely planning to hire her again and invite friends/family to join. Thanks again Chef !

Chef Andrew and his business partner Chef Barbara were outstanding. They made our anniversary so special, and we had a fantastic time learning Chef Andrew's beautiful recipes. Our evening was finished with fireside coffee service. We were unsure of what to expect from this experience, but we were so happy with the intimate and comfortable setting. For anyone that wants to try this, we would both highly recommend it. You won't be sorry.

Michelle T.

Booked the class Thai Cuisine Fundamentals with Chef Jordan W. in Julian

My husband gifted me the Thai Cuisine Fundamentals class for our anniversary and we had such a great time! Before our class, Chef Jordan reached out about any food allergies and was kind enough to cater to my wheat and dairy restriction. Upon arriving at his beautiful home, Chef Jordan greeted us with a friendly smile and took us over to his kitchen where he had all of the ingredients displayed. He asked us what type of music we liked and I love listening to "French Cafe" songs while I cook so he turned it on for a relaxing mood. We made three dishes: Tom Kha Gai Soup, Thai Coconut Yellow Chicken Curry and Fresh Spring Rolls with a yummy Thai Peanut Sauce! Using fresh ingredients and cooking from scratch was so fun to make and eating it was so much better. You could really taste how fresh the ingredients were. Everything was loaded with flavor and pretty healthy, too! Chef Jordan did a great job teaching us knife skills and walking us through each recipe. One of the best things about the class was that we were able to eat A LOT! We made so much food that we were able to get second (even 3rd) helpings as well as pack some for the road. We brought a yummy Sauvignon Blanc with citrus notes that he recommended would pair well with the meal and it tasted great! He also took us on a mini tour of his garden to pick out fresh herbs for our spring rolls. Chef Jordan was very organized, friendly and professional and made good conversation throughout. Since it was just me and my husband, it was a very nice and intimate experience. He gave us the recipes to take home along with some grapefruit and passion fruit from his yard! We really enjoyed our time learning how to make this yummy 3-course meal. The next time we decide to do this again, Iâ€™d love to invite a bigger group with us to enjoy this fun experience! Thanks again Chef Jordan!

Booked the class Authentic Japanese Feast with Chef Jordan W.

We had a great evening with Jordan. The Japanese food was delicious and Jordan did a fanstic job of involving us in the preparation. The lesson was a Christmas gift to my girlfriend and it was a huge hit. Especially appreciated Jordan taking the time to teach us knife techniques and the motivation behind his ingredients. Couldnâ€™t recommend him more strongly for your next birthday gift or dinner party.

Booked the class Healthy Homemade Thai Food with Chef Jessica L.

Chef Jessica Is a very straightforward cook. She uses simple recipes, good ingredients that anyone can employ once you learn. It's such an eye-opening class too because I don't get into the kitchen thinking, "Oh, I'll just make some thai food!" but now I can! Excellent chef, excellent class.

Kirsten F.

Booked the class Everything about Sushi with Chef Jeff R.

I cannot explain how much I loved his class. He's such a warm human being and is so PASSIONATE about what he does that it's infectious! I was making hand rolls, and laughing because I was actually doing it! I was actually making a sushi hand roll! What a great class and a GREAT teacher.

Jenny V.

Booked the class Next Level Sushi Skills with Chef Zach in San Diego (College West)

I took my husband to the Next Level Sushi Class with Chef Zach and left feeling a bit disappointed. I will preface this with the fact that Iâ€™ve done many cooking classes so Iâ€™m comparing this experience to previous life ones. While we did learn a few things, there were many ways this class fell short. Intros. The Chef did not introduce himself or care to get to know anyone in the class. He mentioned it had been a long weekâ€¦ maybe thatâ€™s why he seemed apathetic. Description. The class description did not match the experience. While the description noted weâ€™d be learning to garnish and create sauces for the sushi, none of that was done. This was essentially Chef Zachâ€™s 101 sushi class repackaged and sold at a higher price - we paid $20/person more to eat crÃ¨me brÃ»lÃ©e at the end. Even that would have been okay if we had learned to make the Green Tea crÃ¨me brÃ»lÃ©e, as the description insinuated. Instead, he passed around pre-made vanilla crÃ¨me brÃ»lÃ©e. Location. Nobody in the class knew weâ€™d be outside for this class and none of us were prepared with proper outerwear. It was freezing. A note from the Chef letting us know this was an outdoor location would have made a big difference. I would not participate in another class by Chef Zach. I was disappointed in the experience but grateful my husband found it enjoyable.

I enjoyed this class very much. I am already signed up for other classes. The chef was great. I asked about receiving the recipes & she said they would be emailed . I have not received them.

Booked the class Sushi-Centered Feast with Chef Krong in San Diego (Rancho Bernardo)

Chef Krong was warm and friendly. Her helpful tips made it seem like making our own sushi at home was easier than we thought! More importantly, she was able to engage both kids and adults in our sushi experience. We strongly recommend her to anyone, and especially groups with kids.

Delicious food and good times were had!

Karen R.

Booked the class Vegetarian Taste of Thailand with Chef Krong in San Diego (Scripps Ranch)

We were happy to learn some tips to creating authentic tasting pad thai and green curry. Each dish we made was delicious. My only disappointment was I felt this experience was very rushed and quick because Chef Krong had another booking right after ours. I sensed she was distracted because of this. There was no time to take notes because she was moving us along at a very fast pace. Parts of this experience seemed like a blur to me.

Kate De Leon .

Booked the class Southeast Asian Eats - Date Night with Chef Donna in Carlsbad

This class was very nice and fun! It was informative and very good & tasteful! The only thing is that we were told we were going to be sent the recipe and I have yet to receive it which is upsetting since I want to re make it! :)

Jarvis D.

Booked the class Vegetarian Taste of Thailand with Chef Krong in San Diego (Pacific Beach)

Chef Krong is absolutely awesomeâ€”she made the whole experience so fun, informative, and effortless. She came to our home, brought everything needed, and guided us through an amazing Thai vegetarian menu that was full of flavor. The food was incredible, and we learned so much without ever feeling overwhelmed. Plus, she was so sweet and patient with our dog, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend!
