I enjoyed the class. Though it would be helpful if the description would be more accurate. The class isn’t exactly “hands on”. The chef will describe Step by step instructions on how to make the food and will allow you to participate. I was looking for a more hands on experience where a chef will teach and you will have your own station recreating the recipe. However overall the class was great.
