Monica is a very sweet lady but this event was a cluster. It’s not a “cooking class” with your own stations cooking your own dishes (which was probably to be expected, being held at a brewery). It’s a cooking demo with her doing the cooking. We did each peel and rice some potatoes and made our individual doughs, but she only had 2 small pots where she cooked two people’s gnocchi at a time. The class was very full with over 20 people, so cooking took forever and many just left without having her cook their pasta. Why else was it a cluster? She began the class close to on time, but 2 people were late so she started over. Then about 10min in, 2 others showed up and she said she’d start over again. We had to tell her do NOT start over for these late people! She did speak softly and even mentioned that some reviews were critical about that. To which she said, “but this is how I talk.” I would think if Classpop had that many complaints about it, they’d spring for a wireless headset microphone and small amplifier for ~$50. She was late with the cooking too because the potatoes wouldn’t boil on the portable burners she brought in. The gnocchi tasted great but it took way too long to get there. Not I'd ever do a similar class that’s not in a kitchen. Or at least market it for what it is and charge way less. This was too expensive for what you ultimately got, and again, many didn’t even eat because it was almost 9pm!
