I enjoyed Chef Marcia's class and getting to know her and hear about her family and experiences. She has spent a lot of time making pies and it shows - the apple pie was gorgeous (and delicious) with a perfect crust. Also one of my Jewish favorites, potato latkes were perfect with crispy edges and the right amount of onion flavor. Served with homemade applesauce and sour cream, they were the best! I think anyone could make and enjoy these after learning from Chef Marcia.

We really enjoyed our experience with Chef Marcia. I would highly recommend taking a class with her. She was fun and exceptionally knowledgeable. Baking can be intimidating for some folks and she makes it approachable and stress free! This is a wonderful gift to share with someone, as it is for the novice or the experienced cook. We look forward to seeing what other classes she offers in the future. This is something we will definitely be doing again. We learned so many tips and tricks! Thank you for sharing your talents!
