What a delicious Italian meal we prepared ! The evening flew by as we all participated in the prep. Our budding chefs gained confidence and seasoned cooks some new tricks!

This was a Christmas gift for my wife and i tagged along. We baked Gluten-free and Gluten-full rolls, scones and cinnamon rolls. We had a great time. My wife was able to learn from a Professional and we had a great time. We'll definitely do it again in the future. Thanks

Chef Eric was enthusiastic, charismatic, and incredibly supportive throughout the class. Chef stepped in exactly when needed and shared quick, helpful tips that made preparing the dish so much easier. Both dishes were absolutely delicious — but the Roasted Leek and Gruyère Croissant was truly top tier! I’m already looking forward to booking another class in the near future.
