Had a wonderful time at our sushi making class! Chef Melissa made it feel less daunting and incredibly enjoyable. We made all different forms of sushi, got tips for where to buy her recommended ingredients and items, and so forth. We had previously struggled to roll maki at home and get the consistency/balance right, and Chef Melissa walked us through all the various things to consider. Now we know how to do better at home! There was one other couple with us, and Chef Melissa made it a really lovely evening by focusing on this moment together, reflecting on the evening, and remembering to enjoy the present. This was beyond expectations! Most culinary classes/demonstrations are pretty to-the-point / have a lot of structure and lack character, which is fine. But now taking a class with Chef Melissa...I feel like she really set the new standard in classes! Thank you for a wonderful experience, highly recommend!

Chef Melissa was awesome! Would take any cooking class she taught. Not only is she great at cooking, she’s also a great hostess. We very much felt at home and ended up with leftovers. We went for my partner’s birthday and had a blast.
