We loved the experience of cooking with chef John. Each dish was delicious and John gave us lots of clear instruction so we hope to repeat it again at home. We'd definitely recommend this class to anyone who loves Thai food.

What a great experience! We have now participated in two cooking classes, Spanish Tapas and Paris Bistro, and both were thoroughly enjoyable. Chef John leads the evening in a way that is both educational and fun, offering tips that go beyond the meal you are creating, and we've left both classes feeling inspired. We liked our first night so much we invited friends along to the second and we highly recommend this experience with Chef John!

We had Chef John over at our house for a private cooking class for 6 people for a birthday celebration. He was really entertaining and shared his experiences from travelling around the world as well as cool cooking hacks/tips/tricks. Everyone had an amazing time as it was a very interactive and engaging. Though we cooked up a storm in the kitchen, we all really enjoyed the delicious 5-course Thai food menu. Thank you Chef!

The meals Chef John prepared for us did not only rejuvenate our taste buds, but also satisfied us throughout the following days as we reveled in the joyous experience that is cooking with such a well-travelled and storied chef. His experience shines through in how easily he offers teachable moments and includes everyone in the cooking process. It was an absolute delight having him in our home and we would happily do it again. Thank you chef!

Chef John's "Wonders of Asian Street Food" class was fantastic! His passion for cooking is contagious and he had everyone smiling the entire evening. We learned so much about different cooking techniques, tricks for the average home-chef, and the best places to find ingredients. I highly recommend taking a class with Chef John!

We had an absolutely fantastic time. Chef John was a great teacher - we learned some new kitchen tricks that we didn't know before, and a host of delicious recipes. I very much liked the hands-on experience, with the whole group working together to make our meals. Sitting down at the end of the night to all eat together family style, was a great way to close out the evening. Thanks John!

We had a wonderful time with Chef John. The food was so good and we will definitely be making some of the recipes at home! He did a great job of keeping the night fun, explaining what he was doing and best places to find the less common ingredients and overall entertaining us with interesting stories about food around the world. We would highly recommend his class to anyone looking for a night of good food and fun.

Chef John’s cooking class, Wonders of Asian Street Food, was a wonderful and inviting experience presented with many fascinating and engaging layers. Chef John brings to the table a long list of personal talent and a wide variety of food experience from being a professional chef, cooking class instructor, restaurant owner to extensive travel and culinary interest in Asia to intense passion in all things to do with food culture, sources, nutrition, preparation and presentation (his library has over 400 books on cooking from a multitude of cultures)! Chef was thoroughly prepared for each of the meal courses in introducing an amateur foodie to the basics of selection, preparation (who knew turmeric was a root!) to the advanced concepts cooking temperatures, how spices, herbs and citrus are combined to produce the unique and varied flavours of Asia to the subtleties of acquiring ingredients and options within each dish. The class is intensely interesting, engaging, fast paced and delicious! Top all that off with Chef John’s warm, inviting and encouraging style of teaching and sharing extensive knowledge of all things food, resulted in a personal growth, educationally rich and satiated experience! Thanks Chef John!

This has been a fantastic evening! Working with Chef John to create an amazing multi course meal that we all shared was fun and educational. I've learned several new tricks in the kitchen and I'm confident that now I can recreate the same dining experience at home. Chef John and his wife were also very entertaining, sharing stories of their travels and food experiences. We participated in the "Paris Bistro Classics" cooking class. I got to work one-on-one with Chef John to create mussels with bacon and white wine, cheese souffle with greens and bread and the main course, a beef and vegetable slow cooked stew with red wine, a truly French evening. We wrapped it up by making caramelized Hazelnuts, that Chef John paired with ice cream and chocolate cake of his own making. I highly recommend this experience to couples that wish to enrich their home cooking skills and spend a magical evening out.

Chef John is an incredibly talented and skilled chef. His space is elegant and comfortable; a real delight to have spent time learning how to make these dishes. I really felt welcome and at home. He is such a skilled teacher. He was easy to follow with his instruction, explained the origins of these dishes, and had us laughing along the way. He really was awesome!
