We had so much fun with Chef Sarah doing the sushi making class. Would definitely recommend it to anyone!

It was a pretty fun time, but felt a bit disorganized. There wasn’t a lot of instruction around technique, and we also ran out of rice, which is a pretty key component to making sushi. Overall it was a good time, but could’ve certainly been better organized.

Chef Sarah was fantastic. She had a very easy-going attitude which made the class very enjoyable and entertaining. She was a great teacher and had a lot of knowledge that she shared with us. Highly recommended.

A cooking class with no cooking. We all paid to literally just “play with dough”. No eggs, no olive oil bc “it’s too expensive rn”. She was late, the venue was freezing, she forgot tools, and we didn’t even get to do all that was listed. At the very beginning when she said we’re not cooking “your dough today” I thought there would be premade dough to cook and eat, nope, we didn’t even do the sauce!! This whole experience was horrible and the entire time I felt like it was a scam. Everyone who attended should be given refunds for how much was paid to do something anyone could do at home

Really not worth the money and wish I could get my money back. We were led to believe that we would be making a nice pasta dish. We used 2 paid for ingredients while we were there: flour and a pinch of salt with water. No eggs and no olive oil and we didn’t even get to make a sauce. We spent the whole time making playdough. I get that dough needs time to rest but there should have been some premade dough that we could then use to practice making the sauce that was described and then taste test. Add all of that onto a location she’s never used before so the space was freezing cold and not set up at all for cooking. Plus she didn’t get there early enough to set up which cut into the time we did have to play with dough. Really disappointed

Very disappointed. I signed up for a class that was supposed to make raviolis with a brown butter sauce and ended up getting an intro to pasta course. Now had i know that's what I was getting i would have been happy because our teacher was very sweet. But we were taught how to make pasta with just flour salt and water. Not even eggs. We didn't cook anything and the room was freezing cold. I would love to have my money back if I'm being honest.

If I could give 0 stars I would. Very unprepared, the venue was not suitable for the class and was not expecting us. We did not learn everything the listing said we would and we were told to take the pasta home to cook it when the posting said we’d eat it at the end of the class. I also felt like the chef spent a lot of time with some groups and no time with others.

Seems like it was her first time teaching this class so it was not that well prepared. People got to take their own filling so some people could take as much tuna as they want and there was not enough for the last few people. At the end I didn't get to try any fish at all in my sushi, I only had cucumber avocado and cream cheese in my sushi. I think it would be better if she portioned the material for everyone. The class was nothing like I expected and I was not doing any better in making sushi than I was before I joined the class. I think it was quite a waste of time and money, good thing I got the class with discounted price but I wish I had selected another class.

Sarah, it was very nice and professional. She gave us so much advice not just for Thai food but in cooking generally that we learned so much. Teaching us different flavors, profiles and other ways to elevate food. Thank you so much Sarah for taking the time. Would definitely recommend her.
