My husband, my 11 year old daughter and I all had such a fun time! Chef Kim is so knowledgeable and experienced. The pasteries tasted great and we learned so much. We now have recipes we will be sure to use next time we have friends over. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone wanting to learn the fundamentals of French and other European pastries. Thanks Chef Kim!

This was a great experience. It's nice that the teaching takes place in our own kitchen, which made my son & I comfortable. Chef Kim was extremely knowledgeable & we learned so much from her. The eclairs & cream puffs turned out delicious! We can't wait to take another class with Chef Kim.

Chef Kim was great. She asked if we preferred to watch or if we wanted a hands on course. When we said hands on, she walked us through each step and let us do everything. I would give it 4.5 stars if I could, because she left about 45 minutes early and we didn't get to the profiteroles or the gruyère. We made a ton of éclairs and cream puffs though! She added a merengue option as a filling that I wasn't expecting, but I was bummed about missing the savory option. If you've never taken a pastry class this was a great first step. It's not like cooking where you can eyeball ingredients and cook and taste, cook more and taste again. You'll measure everything by weight or else it won't come together. Overall exciting class and amazing cream puffs and éclairs.
