I had the pleasure of attending Chef Eric's cooking class, performed in the very large and bright Cornucopia kitchen and presentation facility. Chef Eric is very professional and knowledgable, but also down to earth and fun to talk to. His Cajun Catfish Tenders with Spicy Remoulade was very tasty, and the Thai Shrimp Curry had a wonderful balance of interesting flavors (coconut milk and chili paste!) and was very tasty, light and smooth. The Chicken and Andouille Sausage Gumbo was a hearty dish with a little kick, but not overpowering. Great comfort food. All in all, everything was quite good, it is a very nice facility for groups both large and small, and Chef Eric made it a relaxing and fun experience. Highly recommend.
