Chef Mary

Very lovely intro cooking class.

My husband and I had a nice experience and it was fun to learn how to sharpen knives, cut up different vegetables and how to quickly make a very easy and tasty vegetarian meal. Thank you.

My boyfriend and I had such an amazing time cooking with chef Mary. She made us feel so welcome, and the food we cooked was delicious. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to learn some technical skills in a fun casual environment.

Chef Mary was fantastic! Great food, great conversation and we learned a lot!

A great learning experience in a relaxed environment. Food was delicious and nutritious!

Chef Mary is the best! I’ve taken two of her classes and they are always fun and you learn so much

Looking for a fun date night idea? Cooking with Chef Mary is the way to go! We learned lots of yummy ideas and had a blast! Thanks for the full bellies and laughs. :)

It was a fun day and I learned several new cooking techniques. Chef Mary was very friendly and well prepared for our session. I had a great time!

Mary was so much fun to cook with! She is a great teacher and I learned a lot. The dishes we prepared were delicious and I enjoyed being in her bright, spotless kitchen.

I'm VERY disappointed with this class. Mary is a sweet lady but this class should NOT be marketed as a "professional knife skills class". The first sentence of this class description mentions "...you assemble a spread of dishes that require slicing, chopping and mincing"- this was just frankly not done. At all. The class should instead be marketed as a beginners cooking class or beginners pasta making class. And as a competent home chef already... this was not what I was looking for. I would NOT have purchased this class if I had known there would be almost ZERO actual knife work. Mary had already prepped things and purchased pre-chopped veggies instead of having us actually do the work.

Chef Mary was fun, welcoming, and skilled at presenting cooking techniques in a straightforward and approachable manner. Thank you for a lovely evening of good stories, practical skills, and delicious food Chef Mary!

Lots of fun! Chef Mary is very friendly and knowledgeable. I learned a lot and had fun making a lot of different things.

We had a wonderful time learning some professional cutting and cooking with another couple attending the class. Thank you, Chef Mary!

Chef Mary was amazing and taught us how to make the most delicious food!

Extremely enjoyable class. It was both informative and tons of fun.

Such a fun and informative class. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and love Mary’s energy

Delicious menu and the experience was like we were dining with a friend. Mary was a real pleasure!

Could not recommend Chef Mary’s class more. She was incredibly down to earth and had our group belly laughing the whole evening. We picked up some great skills, had some delicious food, and had a fun time.

It was a fun experience! Chef Mary is a very lively host and gives good cooking advice that clears the mystery behind cooking but also gets me excited to try cooking more vs treating it as a chore.

Mary was super warm and accommodating! She handled a guest who was late graciously, gladly answered our questions, and in the meanwhile whipped up a delicious meal and made sure that we all learnt well! All of the guests agreed that it was a great experience and would recommend the class to anyone :)

Apart from the actual dishes and skills taught, Chef Mary created an environment of ease and fun, particularly for our family gathering

Chef Mary is the absolute best. We ended up unexpectedly with just two in the class, and we had so much fun and learned some great and PRACTICAL tips to be more excited in the kitchen. Her home is beautiful, and she is so welcoming and hilarious. Highly highly recommend.

Chef Mary's enthusiasm was infectious!! Time just flew when having fun! Love her cooking style, cook food/ingredients that's wholesome and good for me. Everyone is different. She gave some ideas on base soup which could be customized to my liking. Love the class! Will sign up for another class. Thank you Chef Mary!!

Mary was INCREDIBLE. We loved every minute of this class, and we learned so much. We will definitely be back!

We had so much fun at our class with Chef Mary! She was a wonderful host, great teacher, and terrific cook. The food was delicious. And it was so exciting to learn some new cooking skills to use in our every day lives. Highly recommend!!

Just an awesome time! I learned alot and the food was amazing.

What a delight to take this class! Mary was one of the most welcoming entertaining and knowledgeable chefs we have met. Not only did we have a great introduction to the basics of using a knife in the kitchen, but we also made a wonderful lunch under her supervision. This would be an awesome setting for families or close friends to share a course and have a wonderful culinary experience. If I could give her more than five stars I would. Well done Mary!

Had a great experience withChef Mary. Learned a lot to.

Chef Mary was the BEST! I bought this class as a Christmas present for my wife and I to do together, and I am so glad I did! We made pasta from scratch as well as a salad, dessert, and fritters. If you get the chance to take this class, do it and don't look back! Mary is a wealth of knowledge and full of personality. We can't wait until we can take another one of her classes!

We had a great time. Chose to do this less because of a need to learn to cook and more because my partner and I needed a fun evening and some variety in our normal date spots. Mary was a great host, entertaining, and clearly loves what she does. Bonus points on the mid-century kitchen still in beautiful shape!

Mary made me feel welcome and comfortable right away. She had great conversation and explain the dishes and gave us plenty of suggestions to add add on our own when we try the recipes on our own.

Chef Mary did a good job rolling with the circumstances presented to her, staying positive and keeping things fun. I learned some helpful things that will stick with me going forward. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because we weren't able to cover all the things we were supposed to due to the power going out. That's not Mary's fault whatsoever and she made the best of the situation. I'm certain if we had gotten to do everything that was planned, it would've been a 5 star experience.

Mary was super fun to cook with! She had a lot of great tips and tricks, made wonderful food, and was a great host. She has a great personality and makes you feel welcome from the second you meet her. I would highly recommend taking any classes with Mary!

Chef Mary is *so much fun*. Laid back, super informal, yet brings the knowledge and lets you practice some real skills. I made a new friend in Chef Mary, and I'll most certainly be a return customer. :)

We had a great time! Chef Mary was fun and informative.

We had such a fantastic evening with Mary! First off the food was fantastic, it's always fun when you get to help out a little in the process, but Mary definitely had the extra touch to make everything taste amazing and got a few little pro tips on the seasoning that will be used much sooner than later. Learned some great fundamentals for Knife skills, if you don't know how to cut an onion, that's practically worth the price of admission itself. But most importantly, just had a lot of fun! Mary is all energy and witty jokes, and it didn't take long to get into some meaningful conversation. Amazing to go into a strangers home and feel at home, so cool. Would recommend 100% and look forward to another class!!

Mary was wonderful! The entire experience was so much fun. The food was delicious and we learned some new skills as well as dishes. She was a great teacher and just so much fun to learn from. I would definitely recommend taking a class from her. You will learn and leave full and happy. We will be back for sure!

Chef Mary was fantastic! She brought amazing energy and was very knowledgeable. I learned a great deal and really enjoyed myself. Plus the food was delicious! 10/10
