Vivian and Michi were amazing! We had a great experience tonight making ramen from scratch. They were both professional in knowledge and very welcoming and friendly. They showed us in clear easy instructions how to make each items and the steps involved. They had answered all our questions and gave advice on how to change the dishes when making at home for new taste. I feel confident with their recipe and instructions, I can now take this home and share with friends.

We had an amazing time in our Italian cooking class with Vivian and Michi! Vivian was so accommodating and went above and beyond to make the experience fun and engaging. We learned great tips, made pasta from scratch, and felt confident enough to try it at home. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and everyone had a blast. I would definitely do it again and highly recommend it!

Chef Ricky was absolutely amazing! You could tell right away that he was not only very experienced, but extremely knowledgeable about not just sushi, but lots of other food. He set a great atmosphere with music, and a food station set up like you would see in sushi bars, so you did everything that they would do. The rolls came out delicious thanks to his guidance and fresh ingredients! We would definitely take other classes from him.

The class we took was focused on making ramen from scratch. It was such an amazing experience! The instructors were super welcoming and made the class feel like a gathering of friends. We learned all about the culture of ramen while getting hands-on with the ingredients and making our own noodles. The meal we prepared together was absolutely delicious, and the conversation was just as exciting. I can't recommend these chefs enough, a solid 10/10 & we will be back! ?

Chef Vivian and Michi we're awesome!! They were not only excellent instructors but they were also very friendly. They traveled to our home for the class and were prepared with everything we needed, it could not have been easier. They made sure we were involved in the class for each step and that we were satisfied with our meals. They are truly talented, we would definitely recommend them for your next cooking class.

Chef RickyвЂ™s sushi class was AMAZING!! We were impressed as soon as we walked into his beautiful home. Each station in the kitchen was prepped perfectly for us with everything we could need including all ingredients and tools. It was such a calm and relaxing environment which made for the perfect weekend date activity. Chef Ricky was so kind, engaging and knowledgeable and walked us through every step of the sushi process. We really feel like we learned a ton!! And at the end we got to take home our sushi creations and even the mats. Everything was so fresh and tasty - we couldnвЂ™t have had a better experience, right down to his dog saying hello and his sweet wife taking our photo! Thank you Chef Ricky!!

Could not have asked for a better experience sushi making with Chef Ricky! We learned so much and enjoyed all his stories and tidbits about cooking. We will be back for another one of his classes soon. Thanks, Chef!

This class was so much fun and Chef Ricky is the best! It is in the chefвЂ™s house, so donвЂ™t be alarmed when the maps takes you to a neighborhood. I got this for my boyfriend for a birthday gift and he loved it. There were 6 people in the class, he has a beautiful home with so much space. The spots are nicely setup with everything you need. He teaches you to make sushi from scratch and helps you every step of the way. He is very detailed and will answer any questions you have as well as make sure you are doing everything correctly so no one gets frustrated. You can bring your own drinks, he provides wine glasses and water. The price is absolutely worth it, you make so many rolls of sushi that you eat while you cook and also get to take so much home with you, you will have sushi for days!

Chef Ricky was amazing! The sushi rolls were amazing and the smoked soy sauce was so delicious. We learned so much about the history of sushi and about all of the various ingredients. I really felt after leaving the class that I could make sushi at home and impress my friends! I canвЂ™t wait to do another class with Chef Ricky again.

What an amazing and intimate experience! Chef Vivian and Chef Michi went above and beyond to make us feel at home,It was a good balance of fun and education . I highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a great experience. The chefs were extremely knowledgeable and we had some great conversations around food . My wife and I really enjoyed our time with them . Thank you Chef Vivian and Chef Michi

My client Carolyn wrote this as this was for her family of four. We had an amazing sushi class with Chef Ricky. HIGHLY recommend him and his brilliant mind. Not only does he supervise and show you how to make sushi, but he educates you on the history, adding in fun anecdotes and important tips through his wealth of experience in the restaurant field, This is not a lecture class вЂ”- it is hands on fun. Chef Ricky makes the sushi along with you вЂ”- AND you get to eat everything you assemble, with plenty to take home for tomorrow. This mom truly appreciated his detailed attention to clean surfaces and safe preparation. What a great way to spend a family evening вЂ”- even my college-aged kids loved it. Shhhhh вЂ”- donвЂ™t tell anyone вЂ”-but IвЂ™m buying my husband Chef RickyвЂ™s Sous vide class for a Valentines Day gift!

It was super fun... definitely going to go back and do more classes with them! Loveeeed everything, and it was such a cool experience to cook in their home for a real cozy feel. It was a nice class, with only one other student. So cool to be taught by professional chefs! The nicest, most welcoming people!

It was a great experience! We took the sushi class and it was amazing! Chef Ricky is very knowledgeable and not only did we learn how to make sushi, but also the history, different kinds, and all about tuna. We had plenty of sushi to take home and I feel quite prepared to do it at alone at home!

12/15/2021

We had so much fun with Chef Ricky that I booked another sushi lesson with a group of clients. We had a group of six. All of my clients had the BEST time!!! After the first roll, everybody felt much more at ease. Chef Ricky plays music that is geared towards sushi (Rolling in the Deep). We learned about the history, ingredients and proper food safety guidelines for preparing sushi. Chef Ricky answered all questions including non sushi questions. His kitchen is perfect for teaching an intimate sushi class. Highly recommend that you book quickly as the spots fill up quick!!! 5 Stars!!!!!!!!

Chef Ricky is amazing! All participants had their own sushi work station. Chef Ricky explained all the ingredients and put everyone at ease. We all made delicious sushi by the end of the class. His music selection went great with the class. I highly recommend this class. 5 Stars

Chef Ricky was knowledgeable, entertaining, and passionate about his craft. Such a fun and unique dining experience! Definitely worth the cost, considering how many left overs we had and how long we were there! Do yourself a favor and book with chef Ricky for a memorable afternoon you wont soon forget!

Wow, where do I even start. I arranged this for my husband and our best friends to do this class together for his birthday. It was the highlight of his weekend! вЂЁвЂЁWe all agreed that Chef Ricky is a genius. He knows so much about the culture and history behind sushi (do you know what the word вЂњsushiвЂќ even means? YouвЂ™ll find out!) as well as the intricate process and exact ingredients (aka the right ones!) that go into the process of actually creating the sushi rolls. вЂЁвЂЁDEFINITELY come hungry! You make an incredible amount of delicious food. You get to take home what you donвЂ™t eat (which for me was a lot) along with your sushi mat! IвЂ™ve already bought the recommended ingredients so I can make sushi at home! This review is falling short on describing just how good the experience was. I would say it was worth AT LEAST $150 per person. It was really fun, delicious, informative, and Chef Rickie makes the experience enjoyable :) I fully recommend this class to any one who is interested in learning to make sushi!

This was an amazing experience and I look forward to doing this again. The atmosphere of a home definitely makes the experience more "cozy" and inviting! Looking forward to adding my 10 year old to the mix!
