My boyfriend and I had an amazing cooking class with Chef Sima and are already talking about planning another. Chef Sima came to our home and brought everything we needed to prepare an incredible falafel meal with lots of leftovers. She was so kind and walked us through every step of the way. She even left us with a few handwritten recipes to recreate the meals again. Highly recommend! Thank you Chef Sima!
