Karmala was fantastic! My boyfriend and I had the best time cooking mediterranean food. She was very welcoming, warm, knowledgable and made us feel super comfortable. The setting was great, intimate and she took time to explain ingredients, cooking tools and more... we learned a lot! Highly recommend her!

Chef Karmala's cooking class was a delight! Her infectious personality made the experience both hilarious and informative. Throughout the class, she patiently explained each step and answered all our questions. I felt comfortable and competent in the kitchen, which is a HUGE deal. She gave us recipes I would attempt again. I can't recommend Chef Karmala's classes highly enough – whether you're a seasoned chef or a beginner, you're guaranteed to have a good time and come away with new skills. Her passion for cooking shines through, adding an extra layer of inspiration to the whole experience.

I decided to surprise my boyfriend with a cooking class for our anniversary, and let me tell you – it was absolutely amazing! We're total newbies in the cooking class scene, and honestly, we had no clue what we were getting into. But wow, were we blown away and we can't stop talking about the class! Mala, the magician behind the scenes, set up and prepped everything like an absolute pro. She was very friendly and could probably get a side gig as a stand up comedian. We left with smiles, full bellies, and a newfound love for the culinary arts. Count us in for more classes – we're officially hooked! Thanks a million for such an unforgettable experience!

Mala was unbelievable. There were two of us in the course and she quickly adapted her presentation to the skill level of the audience. I've taken numerous courses throughout the years and have never had such a delightful experience. The recipes were well documented, the instruction clear and concise, and the personality of the chef was IMPECCABLE. I would take courses with Mala anytime!

Finally I can make an omelet, and with so many variations. Now my wife puts me to work every morning. Thanks Chef Mala, you are great teacher and role model. I have been blessed to enjoy some of your culinary delights, your presentation, artistry, delicate flavors; such a beautiful combination of exquisite skills. Food has now taken on a new meaning for me. I am your fan for life.

Karmala has taught me to make some incredible, delicious meals. She has also taught me to put together the most amazing charcuterie board. She has also cooked the tastiest, heartwarming meals. She shows her expertise by preparing dishes from all over the world. She is a remarkable chef.
