We had a great time. Chose to do this less because of a need to learn to cook and more because my partner and I needed a fun evening and some variety in our normal date spots. Mary was a great host, entertaining, and clearly loves what she does. Bonus points on the mid-century kitchen still in beautiful shape!

Mary made me feel welcome and comfortable right away. She had great conversation and explain the dishes and gave us plenty of suggestions to add add on our own when we try the recipes on our own.

What a delight to take this class! Mary was one of the most welcoming entertaining and knowledgeable chefs we have met. Not only did we have a great introduction to the basics of using a knife in the kitchen, but we also made a wonderful lunch under her supervision. This would be an awesome setting for families or close friends to share a course and have a wonderful culinary experience. If I could give her more than five stars I would. Well done Mary!

Chef Mary was the BEST! I bought this class as a Christmas present for my wife and I to do together, and I am so glad I did! We made pasta from scratch as well as a salad, dessert, and fritters. If you get the chance to take this class, do it and don't look back! Mary is a wealth of knowledge and full of personality. We can't wait until we can take another one of her classes!

Chef Mary did a good job rolling with the circumstances presented to her, staying positive and keeping things fun. I learned some helpful things that will stick with me going forward. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because we weren't able to cover all the things we were supposed to due to the power going out. That's not Mary's fault whatsoever and she made the best of the situation. I'm certain if we had gotten to do everything that was planned, it would've been a 5 star experience.

Chef Mary is *so much fun*. Laid back, super informal, yet brings the knowledge and lets you practice some real skills. I made a new friend in Chef Mary, and I'll most certainly be a return customer. :)

We had such a fantastic evening with Mary! First off the food was fantastic, it's always fun when you get to help out a little in the process, but Mary definitely had the extra touch to make everything taste amazing and got a few little pro tips on the seasoning that will be used much sooner than later. Learned some great fundamentals for Knife skills, if you don't know how to cut an onion, that's practically worth the price of admission itself. But most importantly, just had a lot of fun! Mary is all energy and witty jokes, and it didn't take long to get into some meaningful conversation. Amazing to go into a strangers home and feel at home, so cool. Would recommend 100% and look forward to another class!!
