The experience was fantastic. Chef Christmas and Chef Michelle are clearly professionals. They taught and gave advice as we cooked and explained flavors and spices. The food was beyond delicious and were even better reheated the next day! I can not wait to take another class soon!

Great with my granddaughter. The donut was too much rice for the amount of salmon and vegetables. Gave cash tip that day.

The kids enjoyed the class very much. Everything was delicious but the soup was a little spicy for a couple kids. Easy to adjust. Very professional

Chef Christmas and her partner were very nice and taught the kids some important kitchen skills. They showed up with everything they needed to make the recipes and they cleaned up as we were eating our treats. The kids enjoyed it very much. Unfortunately, she was 30 minutes late and didn't let me know until I called her for an ETA. We were on a tight timeline and would have rearranged things (fed the kids) if we had proper notice. There was some swearing and two of the three items we cooked didn't turn out at all.
