I had the pleasure of attending a private cooking class with chef Tracy recently. l'd have to say that I'm more than happy that I did.
From the initial meeting, my party and I were greeted with chef Tracy's infectious joy.
The meal of choice that we chose was Indian cuisine.
This meal including the following:
•Naan bread
•Hummus with chickpeas, tahini and olive oil
•Chicken Tikka Masala with spices
•Basmati Rice with lentils, turmeric, tomatoes and cilantro & cauliflower.
Collectively, l'd have to rate our experience with chef Tracy a 10/10 unforgettable time. Her knowledge of cooking, knack for health conscious choices, use of unique spices & her enthusiasm for educating others is ultimately something that should be shared with others. Whether you're looking for a fun date night experience or to elevate your cooking skills, definitely do yourself a favor and book.

My mother and I had a wonderful experience with Chef Tracy! She was incredibly informative and knowledgeable about the ingredients, spices and overall process of cooking. Chef Tracy provided the "how" and "why" behind everything we cooked. Not only did we create a fabulous meal; we left with more knowledge about health & wellness as it relates to food we consume. We will book with Chef Tracy again!

Chuck
16 Sep 2024
Tracy was great. General feedback from all - great class, much run, everyone loves Tracy. it was long and late for many so ... next time consider an appetizer first so we can much while the rest cooks. Also some ambivalence regarding how much prep was needed - some spent a couple of hours prepping and then we have time to do it in the class so perhaps clarify that some next time. I anticipate another healthy cooking class request sometime between Jan and Mar but more to come on that. Well done - food was great!
Rachel

Danialah
27 Jul 2024
Tracy was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. Such a natural at teaching the art of cooking. Learning some new techniques that I plan to use in the kitchen right-away.
The only thing that would make this experience better would be receiving a call beforehand and explanation that this experience is done at her home. I didn't realize that until the last moment and was concerned that the experience wasn't going to be legitimate.
It definitely was though! You get lost in what she's teaching and completely forget about where you're at. It was so much fun! And completely safe.

This was my second class with Chef Tracy and she did not disappoint! I was impressed with her knowledge of different cuisines. I reached out to her ahead of class and she was able to provide me with a substitute for peanut butter as my child is allergic to all nuts. The food tasted great, even the dish with the black eyed peas, which I never eat.

Excellent class. I took it through my work as part of a team activity for a mostly remote team. It was perfect. We all had a lot of fun and even though the recipe was fairly complex the pace and style of the class made it easy to follow and my gumbo came out great.

Chef Tracy's knowledge of food, nutrition, and how each seasoning brought the best flavor to the food was amazing! Not only did I get to bring New Orleans to my kitchen, I learned how each food and seasoning affected my body. She taught us how different substitutions did not work well with regards to causing inflammation to the body or even reacting with medications. She was so patient with my 11 year old son who served as my sous chef. We had an incredible evening.

We really enjoyed Chef Tracy. She was very knowledgeable about her craft, I personally enjoyed how she explained the how the herbs and spices reduce sugar in our foods. The meal she prepared with us was delicious and only 500 calories. I would highly recommend her to friend and family.
Dave
14 Jan 2024
Tracy did a great job of trying to teach me, as a beginning cook some basic techniques -- chopping, judging the location of heat in the oven, arranging vegetables for oven roasting, spices to use. She wasinformative, pleasant encouraging and willing to share her vast knowledge of cooking with my wife and me.
Taylor
08 Jan 2024
Amazing person! Taught me thoroughly from basics to the specific recipe but also notes that transcend to other types of dishes! Also was very understanding to any preference no matter how picky. Will take again!!

We loved Chef Tracy's Italian dinner class! All of the dishes tasted incredible and Chef Tracy gave us lots of interesting and helpful nutritional tips. She also shared great cooking tips with us. There is a lot happening in this class and I'm glad I did some prep work ahead of time. Chef Tracy was great about checking in to see if we were all on track and extended the time of the class so we could complete all the dishes. Highly recommend!!

Shopping list missing items
Substitutions should be listed.
She forgot to tell us beginning steps
It was $65 of ingredients. Pretty speedy.
She was kinda judgy on some people and felt awkward
Lisa
03 Nov 2023
Chef Tracy did a great job explaining the prep and cooking process. She uses an overhead camera so we can see exactly what things should look like. She paces the class well as the group needed. Very easy going and responsive to all questions. I think a little more direction in the recipes regarding what to prep (maybe underline it?) would be foid…. I think i jumped the gun and prepped more than i should and did a few things incorrectly.

Chef Tracy's online Italian cooking class was an exceptional experience that left me thoroughly impressed. Her expertise and guidance throughout the class were truly outstanding.
Chef Tracy's instructions were clear and easy to follow, making the cooking process enjoyable and stress-free. She walked me through each step of the recipes, ensuring that I understood the techniques and ingredients required. Her patience and precision were commendable, making the class accessible to both beginners and experienced cooks.
What set Chef Tracy apart was her passion. She shared fascinating facts and stories about the origins of the recipes, adding a delightful touch to the overall experience. Her knowledge and enthusiasm were contagious, making me even more excited to try out the dishes.
One aspect that I particularly appreciated was Chef Tracy's encouragement of creativity and personalization. She provided suggestions for alternative ingredients and variations, allowing me to adapt the recipes to my taste preferences. This flexibility made the class feel personalized and tailored to my needs.
The end result of the class was truly impressive. The dishes I prepared turned out excellent, and my guests were genuinely impressed with the flavors and presentation. Chef Tracy's guidance and expertise undoubtedly played a significant role in the success of the meal.
Overall, I highly recommend Chef Tracy's online Italian cooking class. Her passion, knowledge, and excellent teaching skills make it a must-try for all food enthusiasts. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced cook, you will undoubtedly benefit from her expertise and enjoy a memorable culinary experience.

St.
19 Jul 2023
The class was wonderful and the food turned out excellent. My only suggestion is that the prep video would be available with the class confirmation so you would know how to size down portions...and not purchase more than you really need. Or know whether or not it freezes well. (It does!)
Michelle
17 Jul 2023
The class was amazing and I would absolutely take it again. Chef Tracy was absolutely responsive and her recipes were spot on. She did a great job of answering questions and was quick to take a look via the camera at specific problems. The only reason I dropped this four stars was because the shopping list was a little difficult to figure out and the pre-prep video did not give enough detail as to what to prep and what not to prep. I am still not 100% sure I added all the fish I was supposed to add, but the gumbo tasted delicious regardless.

Exceeded our expectations with so much more in depth “secrets” to safer and faster meal prep. Chef Tracy explained how the temperature and time were crucial to maintaining balance between flavor, nutrition and texture of each dish. We met another couple from Mississippi so we lingered over the meal as one would do with old friends.

Jennifer
03 Apr 2022
Very disappointed in this class. All ingredients on the list were purchased in advance and we did prep work as suggested. After the actual recipes were made available, many of the items were not even used (~ $20 worth) and the prep work was not in synch with the chef's directions. The instructions and class time were not sufficient as the appetizer and vegetables were not cooked through and the chocolate mousse dessert made of only eggs and chocolate and water was clearly missing something (no sweetener?) The main entree was tasty but also needed extra cooking time. Also, the small class had one participant who refused to mute so the chef's instructions and presentation were often blocked by the disrespectful attendee throughout the duration of the class. The chef should have muted them so the rest of us could hear and see the process. This session was clearly not a good experience.

My girlfriend had been telling people for a while that she had been wanting to cook more, so her sister and I both booked her cooking classes with Chef Tracy without knowing the other already had. My girlfriend loved both of the classes and was looking forward to the second one after her first. I had a lot of fun too when I went with her. Chef Tracy was very accommodating and a lot of fun during the classes. The food was delicious and we learned a lot about the nutrition of it all. Thank you Chef Tracy!

Chef Tracy was great! We will definitely go back with some friends given the opportunity! We took the southern comfort food made healthy course and loved it. Getting to talk with and learn from Chef Tracy was a blast. Chef Tracy is my spirit animal!

This was a great class. Chef Tracy was well-prepared and flexible - she gave us a variation on the original menu when we asked for one, and provided recipes a few days in advance. Everything was timed well and the food was delicious. Her camera set-up made it easy to see what she was doing.

Food was good but she went way too fast and didn't explain the steps thoroughly. My wife and I have done a few other classes on this site and never had any trouble keeping up. Also, there was one woman in the class who had her mic on the entire time which made it very distracting to follow along. It would have been helpful if she was instructed to mute her mic.

We had a great time with Chef Tracy! Such a fun experience and a learning experience. We love Thai Food so it was nice to finally learn to cook some. We didn't even realize we had signed up to a vegetarian class, but were pleasantly surprised! Very filling and flavorful food.

Chef Tracy was amazing! She was very responsive to all of my questions prior to the event and did a wonderful job teaching on the day of our event. She took her time explaining everything she did and went over and above to accommodate everyone's needs. The food was delicious! I highly recommend taking a class with her!!!

She was really really nice and answered all the questions we had for her, but she went pretty fast for the class. She also jumped around a bit so we had a hard time following where we were supposed to be.

Honestly, this was not like the other experiences I had. She didn’t engage the group, it went way too fast, and the ingredients were not clearly spelled out. We did this for a team Xmas party and everyone was pretty stressed out trying to keep up and wasn’t very fun like usual.

Chef Tracy was amazing. I bought this for my adult children. Chef Tracy welcomed them into her kitchen. She was incredibly skilled, the food was delicious, but most importantly, the process was fun and engaging for my children. She was very conversational and gave them great tips on the process. The three hours were spent with a great balance between instruction, hands on learning, eating a delicious meal, and having a great conversation. I would HIGHLY recommend Chef Tracy to anyone and intend to visit her again!!

Chef Tracy was great at engaging our widely distributed team through the steps- she was able to in the moment give variation instructions for folks that couldn't get the right ingredients, and had tips for preparation amongst wide variation in sizes and shapes! A great virtual team bonding experience- and Tracy worked so well with us to get metric conversions and substitutions so our international group could all be on the phone at the same time!

Chef Tracy is very knowledgeable and fun! I feel like I learned useful tips about cooking in general, and the specifics about the recipes we made. She facilitates the classes out of her home in Midtown. We all know how small those places are! But Chef Tracy utilizes every square inch of that place! I can't wait to take another class.

Chef Tracy was outstanding in these areas: thorough explanations on the ingredients and why we use the tools we use; cheerful; professional; patience with a client who has never cooked a 3-course complicated meal; knowledgeable; and, substitution for ingredients we could not obtain. I recommend her. This was a fine experience.

Firstly I would say Tracy is wonderful and the food was delicious!
The only negative I would say is the written recipes need work. Mushroom Bolognese says 2 servings and calls for 1lb of mushrooms. We have enough leftovers to end world hunger! Also, the dish should be planned to be served on the spaghetti squash. The inclusion of Angel hair pasta is redundant and should really only be mentioned as an option.

What an amazing evening with Chef Tracy. I booked a private event and it made my friend's 40th birthday extra special. Chef Tracy was a delight to cook with and she made the experience very enjoyable. Looking forward to when I can do this again.

Tracy is one impressive woman! I hosted a private event to celebrate a birthday. We had very health conscious attendees and Tracy educated us different foods and good replacements for some "not so healthy" foods. She had multiple cameras set up so we could see her knife skills. Overall, the class was super engaging and everyone had a wonderful time.

The food was great and Tracy was knowledgeable. Unfortunately we felt the class was rushed. There was little to no time to talk between preparing entree’s. It was more like “Speed Cooking” vs actually enjoying the experience.

Thank you for a wonderful cooking class to celebrate my husband’s birthday. It was so informative and you were great at teaching to all ages of our large family. It was fun and great to see family in all parts of the country while participating in this exciting class.I especially liked the added information about how to substitute different spices and foods to taste great and have a healthier outlook on one’s health.

Chef Tracy is very personable, upbeat and knowledgeable. The entertaining space was inviting and set-up ready to go when I arrived. The chef demonstrated extensive food and nutrition knowledge as well as the science behind every "swap" made for more healthy options etc. I found this information very intriguing and useful for my own dietary needs. She was quick to answer any and all questions. I absolutely LOVED the vegan potsickers(which contained jicama and mushrooms) I never had jicama before this dish and am not at all a fan of mushrooms but I ate every bit of what she made! It was THAT good. All the dishes we made were done well, easy to do, and tasted great. I would definitely recommend Tracy.
