We just took a cooking class with Chef Dean, and it was fantastic! We made some fried rice, pork potstickers/shumais, fried pork spring rolls and a delicious dessert. Chef Dean was very personable, patient, engaging, and gave clear instructions. The hands-on experience was fun, and the dishes turned out absolutely delicious! Highly recommend the class to anyone looking to try something new!

My girlfriend and I visited Chef Dean for our anniversary and we had such a great experience! The food turned out amazing (and had a lot of leftovers which makes it even better) and Chef Dean was a great teacher and very easy to talk to. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys cooking and or eating Korean food and wants to learn
