Elyse M.

Our hands-on pasta making session with Chef Jordan was both highly educational and incredibly enjoyable. I arranged the class as a birthday surprise for my partner (who is an inspiring chef), and the instruction was top-notch. Chef Jordan provided detailed guidance on every step of the process: from fundamental skills like properly cutting onions, to selecting the correct ingredients (flour, tomatoes), to advanced techniques for kneading dough and sautÃ©ing. It was a delicious and rewarding experience. This class is an excellent choice for a memorable date night or anyone looking to truly elevate their cooking skills.

Chef Liâ€™s Chinese soup dumpling class was absolutely wonderful from start to finish! She welcomed us into her beautiful home with such warmth and made the experience both fun and approachable. She was an excellent teacher, guiding us step by step through making soup dumplings, cucumber salad, and hot and sour soup. Each dish was absolutely delicious, and we left the class excited to try making them ourselves at home. Highly recommendâ€¦we will definitely be taking more classes with Chef Li in the future!

The sushi was delicious, Justinâ€™s teaching and demonstrating was smooth and easy to understand, and Chef Justin himself was a wonderful mix of professional, sociable, and friendly.

Justin was simply incredible! I invited him over as a surprise for my sushi-loving boyfriend. My partner learned a lot from Justin, both from his skills and his life - we loved getting to know him. I also got to partake in some of the sushi-ing, but watching Justin's craftsmanship was more exciting for me :)

I seriously cannot recommend Chef Justin enough. He is a true professional, but made the experience so fun and comforting at the same time. The dishes he made/taught us to make were by far the best and most fresh sushi Iâ€™ve ever tasted! I would book this experience 10x over again and recommend him to anyone looking for a fun date night or day with friends!

We had an amazing meal and experience with Chef Justin. Chef Justin was very communicative prior to the experience. Chef Justin arrive 15 minutes prior to start time in order to get set up. We helped prepare and ate seafood salad, a few rolls (proteins: salmon, shrimp, crab, beef) and mochi ice cream (green tea, strawberry and vanilla). We learned so much and the meal was beyond delicious. Overall it was the best time and the food was so great we would recommend this to anyone. Thanks Chef Justin!

One of the most fun things Iâ€™ve ever done! My BF and I have been ravin about it for days. Justin was super helpful, hilarious, and made the whole experience even better. The food was delicious, and he went above and beyondâ€”chatting with us about anything, taking tons of pictures (so sweet!), and letting us get creative with handrolls + other rolls after making the main menu items. We were in a bit of a rush at the end, and somehow, he cleaned everything up in like 10 minutes. Highly recommend. We were also STUFFED and had leftovers.

He thoughtfully accommodated my allergies, ensuring the menu was both gluten-free and dairy-free. Everything was well-organized and timely, and most importantly, the sushi we created was absolutely delicious! I can't recommend Chef Justin enough for anyone looking to try their hand at sushi making skills!

We made a cucumber-seaweed salad and several different sushi rolls, sashimi, and nigiri. He also brought matcha ice cream for us to enjoy later. We loved this experience and definitely recommend!

This was my 2nd time with Chef Gustavo. He always puts on a unique experience that is unforgettable. I love that we learn so much about the history and culture of the dishes we're making, and his dishes are approachable and ones I will make at home. His kind, welcoming personality makes it so great.

Alyssa W.

Our dumpling cooking class with Chef Li was wonderful! We both cannot wait to try the recipes again at home and ensure we can do it solo! She was so welcoming and educational the entire process. Her step by step guidance on all the ingredients and cooking/assembly made the evening well worth it! We made so many dumplings from scratch, with plenty to practice with, as well as the cucumber salad and hot & sour soup. We will be back to try her other classes at some time in the future for sure.

Ben D.

We cooked several sichuan dishes all of which were good and flavorful. The green beans, chicken, and tofu dishes were easy to follow and we had great direction by chef Li. Overall would definitely take another class and would recommend it for anyone who is looking for a fun time.

Zohaib M.

Very patient and gentle. First cooking class and highly recommend this chef. Professional and informative. Would highly recommend.

Patrick L.

Chef Gustavo was great! He showed us plenty of great cooking techniques that we could use at home, shared delicious recipes, and most of all reminded us that home cooking is all about comfort!

C W.

Great Experience. Will be returning!

Coley H.

This was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Chef Shelley is not only a gifted chef but also a warm, engaging teacher. We did the class with my girlfriend, my son, and my 13-year-old daughter, and she made every step of the process fun, informative, and hands-on. She guided us through the prep, ingredients, and cooking techniques â€” but what really set this apart was how she explained the why behind each step. We learned what the â€œholy trinityâ€ is in Cajun cooking, why a pinch of sugar enhances tomato-based dishes, and why a splash of lemon juice is key when working with apples. Together, we cooked a delicious Cajun meal: classic salmon over maque choux (a Creole succotash), and excellent chicken Ã©touffÃ©e, and a perfectly spiced Southern-style apple crisp. Throughout, Chef Shelley shared amazing stories from her time cooking in New Orleans and New York City â€” plus insider commentary on restaurants (the best and ones to avoid), chefs, and food trends. It genuinely felt like she knows (and has cooked with) everyone in the food world â€” including being friends with members of The English Beat! Between dishes, she also treated us to samples of artisan hot sauces, barbecue sauces, spices, and even a caramel apple â€” all from brands she consults with or has helped develop. Her passion for the culinary arts and the specialty food world is infectious. Chef Shelley is a delightful host, a brilliant storyteller, and a deeply knowledgeable chef. We couldnâ€™t recommend her highly enough â€” truly one of the best experiences weâ€™ve had.

Amy D.

Tiffany was FANTASTIC. She was so friendly and engaging! She was super organized and was comfortable in our kitchen. We learned a TON amd she must have answered 100 questions with a smile. The food was soooo good. Most importantly, we are confident that we can cook this menu again! Highly recommend!!

Zelalem A.

they made it a great experience

Ola O.

We had such a wonderful time cooking with Chef Gustavo! Heâ€™s an excellent teacher, and his knowledge really shines through. After the class, he even gave us tips on where to find ingredients so we could recreate the dishes at home. The whole experience was fun and informative, and the food was absolutely delicious! We took "The Flavors of Chile" class, and everything we made tasted incredible. Iâ€™ll definitely take another class with him and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and flavorful experience!

Tommy L.

Amazing dinner! Great stories - learned a lot.

John O.

Chef Tiffany was amazing. We booked a kids cooking session and she and the kids had a blast and learned how to bake !! Highly recommend.

John Z.

From the moment my wife and I stepped into his kitchen, Chef Gustavo's warm and personable nature put us at ease. His passion for cooking was immediately evident as he introduced us to the evening's menu, which featured a delightful array of dishes. We began with sautÃ©ed shrimp infused with garlic, parsley, and dried chiles de Ã¡rbol atop green plantain cakes. Chef Gustavo guided us through the process of preparing and cooking the plantains, demonstrating techniques that were both practical and impressive. Chef Gustavo's professional demonstration made a seemingly daunting task accessible and fun, especially with wrapping fillets in banana leaves. The sweet crÃªpes for dessert were the perfect conclusion to the meal. Chef Gustavo's couples cooking class was as enriching as enjoyable, highlighting Chef Gustavo's vast expertise and ability to create an engaging and informative atmosphere. Clear instructions and helpful tips made it easy for everyone to achieve perfect results; the hands-on approach made us feel confident and capable as we worked through each step. Throughout the class, his anecdotes and personal stories added a delightful layer of entertainment. Chef Gustavo's cooking class was a fantastic blend of learning and enjoyment. His expert guidance and personable teaching style made for an unforgettable culinary evening.

Alex A.

Justin did an AMAZING job. Such a fun night, heâ€™s incredibly informative, helpful, and a lot of fun. Would recommend to anyone.

Londyn J.

Meg P.

Jordan was so wonderful, insightful, and fun! The class was set up really well and we learned a ton while improving our skills (good for basic and more advanced learners!)

Preston W.

Our team-building retreat with Chef Li was nothing short of amazing. In her beautiful and private, modern kitchen, Chef Li didnâ€™t just teach us to cook; she inspired us with her culinary passion and expertise. We crafted a delightful array of dishes, from perfect homemade dumplings to exquisite stir-fried pork, a refreshing tofu skin salad, and a heavenly dessert soup. Each recipe was a masterclass in flavor and technique, showcasing Chef Liâ€™s exceptional skill. Her warm, engaging approach made the experience not just educational, but truly joyful. Weâ€™re grateful to Chef Li for not only the delicious food but also the wonderful memories and the spirit of teamwork she fostered.
