WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in San Diego
Jake C.

We had such an amazing experience with Marty! She is not only so knowledgeable but also so accommodating. My girlfriend and I learned so much about the history of Italy and how to prepare and cook their amazing food. We could not recommend Marty enough!

We had ShaSha over to our home to teach my daughter and her friend how to make fresh homemade pasta and panna cotta. The girls loved learning the tips and tricks ShaSha included with her lessons that I know they will remember as they venture onto cooking for from-scratch dishes. ShaSha was lovely and personable and we'd definitely work with her again. And we can't forget the food - so incredible delicious!

My husband received this fantastic experience for a birthday gift from our daughter. Chef ShaSha is passionate about cooking and teaching. She is very personable and made the experience a lot of fun. The food we cooked was made with only quality ingredients and was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this experience with Chef ShaSha for any occasion!

Chef Jarrett is the absolute best! His cooking class was fun, informative and interactive. Not to mention the food is DELICIOUS and he left extra for us! He explained everything in detail, demonstrated, let us try our hand at it, and made it work perfectly for 4 people (and 2 pups). Plus he was very accommodating when we had to move things last minute due to my Dad being rushed to the hospital the night before our scheduled class - will forever appreciate how kind and understanding he was to move our booking last minute. Will 100% book with Chef Jarrett again! He is one of the good ones, our friends enjoyed t so much too, and that Sweet Fig and Burrata Crostini was mouth-watering delicious. Plus rolling out the pasta is just fun!
