A fantastic experience! Chef Mateus created a very memorable evening for us. He covered many culinary skills and techniques, such as knife handling, mise-en-place, and many other ingredient-specific, preparation, and presentation tips. And the flavors and foods we prepared were absolutely delicious! Thank You Chef, Mateus— we look forward to returning for another class with you when our schedules match up for your French menu!!

We had the pleasure of taking the French Seafood cooking class with Chef Mateus. We absolutely loved it and have been telling all our friends about it. Chef Mateus did an amazing job at walking us through the cooking instructions and providing many helpful cooking tips. He also went through and provided some very interesting facts related to cooking. On top of that, he was super friendly and we got lost in conversation throughout the night. We intend on doing another class with Chef Mateus soon and we highly recommend it to anybody who is interested in a night of cooking.

My girlfriend and I had an incredible time cooking with and learning from Chef Mateus! The kitchen and rustic dining space really set the intimate scene where we got to enjoy the phenomenal food we cooked together. We received many useful tips and insights, not only with Thai food, but also with cooking in general. Chef Mateus was very accommodating with our meals and experience, and was happy to go into detail answering our cooking questions. We'll definitely be putting our new knowledge to use when cooking at home. Left feeling very satisfied. Definitely recommend!

This was such an amazing and sweet time. I took my boyfriend to celebrate his birthday and loved the set up and how fun and social Mateus was. He was patient kind and knowledgeable. Before I was a bit apprehensive because I thought it was in an apartment but it was such a cute and cozy set up. Would definitely recommend and I actually think the price is more than fair.

My boyfriend and I booked Chef Mateus' Thai Cooking Class for Valentines Day, and it was the perfect event for that occasion! He was very attentive in picking recipes and ingredients that, while unique and representative of the cuisine, are easily accessible to the average kitchen. He additionally gave us each tips while we were following along with his instruction that we will actually use in our day to day cooking. We both had a great time with Chef Mateus and would 100% recommend his classes!

Scheduled this as a fun family activity for 5 while in NYC. This was an amazing experience all around. Chef Mateus most kindly responded to all levels of cooking and cutlery experience in our group and kept everyone safe, learning and moving forward. Gave us memories we will cherish for a lifetime-not to mention skills and recipes we will utilize for a lifetime. Thanks so much chef Mateus soups chef Susie; amazing evening-thank you for making NYC even more special!

Our cooking class with Chef Mateus was amazing! We had a team bonding activity and chose the Thai Feast class. He was very knowledgeable of Thai cuisine, taught us a lot of tips and tricks for cooking, and most importantly – the meal was amazing. I would definitely recommend taking a class with Chef Mateus!

I brought my spouse to Chef Mateus's kitchen as a birthday surprise gift. The experience exceeded our expectations! Not only did we get tons of valuable knowledge about Thai cuisine and tips&tricks for achieving a mouth-watering flavor, but we also had lots of fun and got to take the remainings of our dinner home - that's how much food we cooked together. It was incredible, and we're planning to come back. Chef Mateus taught us so much about cuts and spices, I already feel like a better cook. Thank you very much.

Mateus was a great chef and teacher. He chose dishes with simple ingredients but which required good fundamental techniques - and he demonstrated these techniques really well. The meal was very tasty and the dining area was a very nice space. I definitely took some learnings from the class that I will use again.
