Cooking Class - 3-Day Foodie Fun Teens: International Bakes
Cooking Class - 3-Day Foodie Fun Teens: International Bakes
Channel your teenagers energy into a worthwhile creative outlet with immersive cooking classes.
Equip your food-obsessed young chef with the skills and confidence they need to craft masterful creations thanks to these summer cooking classes. Starting with the building blocks of food safety and working with dough, they will get comfortable working with international ingredients and recipes under guidance from a chef instructor. The last day of class includes a mystery challenge to create a delicious meal by hand using only ingredients given to them, like popular television cooking shows. Students take home a certificate of graduation and a printed menu.
Classes typically run for two to two and a half hours, unless specified otherwise. Group work is a key component; kids can expect to collaborate with four other students. The class involves standing, cooking and active participation throughout. Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are required and long hair should be securely tied back for safety. Please note that these are drop-off classes. Parents do not stay during the classes.
This event is suitable for kids aged 12-17

The meal was delicious; however, we were a little disappointed by the experience. 1. Upon arrival the greeting by the staff was cold 2. We scheduled this as a date night. Initially we were given our work space, then moved and grouped with others to complete the evening in a group setting (this was felt to be less work for the staff) 3. The Resident Chef did not appear to be very knowledgeable of the recipes being created. She continuously corrected herself and had to keep referring to the paper copy of the recipes. (we could have followed a recipe) 4. The Resident Chef would move quickly through steps giving instruction to the next step before the room was finished completing the previous step. 5. There were two assistants to the Resident Chef; however, they didn't assist. I guess I would have thought they should have been working the room making sure each table was completing tasks as directed and providing assistance or additional instruction, if needed. The entire evening felt like they were just going through the motions trying to get the evening over with and get us all out of there as quickly as possible Disappointing for the cost.

We had a WONDERFUL time today at our class with chef Randy! She worked so well with our 10 year old son that is an aspiring chef. He rated the class “one million out of ten”.

Chef Randy was an excellent teacher. We not only took away knife skills, but also how to make some new recipes! Thank you!

It wasn’t really a teaching experience as things were done in a chaotic way. We didn’t expect to be paired up with another couple as we thought this would be an opportunity for my husband and me to do all the cooking together apart from other couples. The chef wasn’t clear on which step we were on during the class and she seemed unprepared and uncomfortable.

We really enjoyed the class and the Chef. The pot we cooked in would be better positioned if it was assessable to everyone. The hood above the cooking area had a nasty layer of grime that surprised us.

1) We have a habit of taking cooking classes when we go on vaca. We have taken several classes in Chicago, Ashville, NC, etc. So we have lots of experience 2) As a Senior, standing the entire time was hard for me, my back was starting to tighten up. My suggestion is that when a person singns up, there should be an option of aksing for a stool. 3) ALL, and I mean ALL, of the previous classes at all venues, gave out a written recicpe for each dish, foe each couple. Not having the paper in front of us there was a lot of confusion that didn't need to happen. The Chef did a great job, but she was having to repeat herself way too many times, and becasue it was a fairly large class, there was a lot of side talking (to be expected) but it got to be so loud that we simply couldn't hear the Chef. 4) Going back to number 1, when the cooking part was over, a place to sit down, to eat, would have been great. 5) With all of the above, we will come back. Thanks for the opportunity to leave a few comments.

We did our class with Chef Monique and it was a very nice evening. Our food was very flavorful and we can’t wait to recreate the same dishes at home. I wish we were given papers with instruction or ingredients beforehand to take notes on, but that is my only critique.

Took my wife to this event for her birthday and we both had a great time and learned some things.

We had a resident chef. Written recipes were not provided. The instructor was disorganized. There were 16 people in class when the work areas look designed for just 8 people. Because there were so many people, there wasn't enough dough to go around. What you show in photos is not at all what was made in class! This was a waste of money.

My husband and I had an enjoyable time. The food turned out excellent. Chef Joy and the others in the class were delightful to be around. There was a lot of standing. I wish we had been able to at least sit down to eat the delicious food. Overall great experience.
