I attended an $85 sourdough class and was a bit disappointed. The instructor was knowledgeable, but we didn’t get to fully bake the bread during class, we took the dough home instead. For the price, I expected a full on sourdough experience.

They hold adults classes too! Chef Alex was a great instructor for our tapas night. The format is great too: couples make different dishes and contribute to a huge spread to share buffet style. Considering the great instruction, good food, and boxes of leftovers, the cost of the class is actually quite reasonable. Thank you, Chef Alex, Helen and I will be back soon!

We did the Spanish tapas cooking class with chef Alex last night and we had the best time! Each couple was responsible for making a different dish. At the end, we each presented our dish and had a feast. Chef Alex makes the experience fun and non-intimidating. He teaches you various skills required to get you through your dish prep. Great for all skill levels and a really great date night idea. Most people brought wine to accompany the food and experience. We will definitely be back!

We have attended parties here many times. Just had a kids birthday party of our own. So much fun for the kids and adults alike. We got to make meat balls, pasta, and desserts! The management(the two brothers) were very attentive every step of the way. Thank you! Highly recommend it to school parents.

This culinary school is so great for kids to enjoy cooking. My son is 6 years old and we attend two weekend classes, one making pizza and the other one making empanada. My son really enjoyed both classes. The chef and sous-chef are very friendly and explain everything in a way that all kids could understand. When we go home, my son enjoys the food he made. Highly recommend. Would definitely book again for their summer camp and weekend cooking/baking party.
