Chef was great! Food just ok, our group felt like we spent too much just to be pushing dough around. Couple of mishaps in the kitchen… small fire in the oven! Also not happy we weren’t allowed to take food home. We ate so much with the other two courses we were full by the time the main meal was ready wasted a whole pizza. If I’m paying for supplies I should be able to take home what we made. Not sure if we would come back

We really were looking forward to this event. Unfortunately, we were disappointed. There wasn't much "instruction" (chef did it himself or said mince that without instruction and didnt provide tips on best way to peel garlic as one example), resident chef speech was difficult to understand, did not introduce new tools that could have provided more sales in the store. We had to ask for a food mover, for instance. The empanadas were undercooked and steak not made to our requested doneness. We had to eat standing up and not even a linen napkin but a flimsy cocktail napkin. Did not encourage team camaraderie to make it a more fun experience. Can you call him a chef when he is still in school? Definitely an experienced chef would have been ideal. The food was good and event space was pleasant.
