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

I had an AMAZING experience with Chef Titik! From the time that I entered her lovely space, I was greeted with a warm and welcoming greeting. The selection of the meal was great. The history of the food and culture was intriguing. I was intrigued by the interaction and the end result of the finished product. We all dined together and it felt like I was eating with family. The evening was simply marvelous!
