The class was good, except I didn’t receive the cooking instructions or the 15% store discount since I registered via Cozymeal.

I was a bit disappointed that Chef Nick was not the chef instructing this class. I didn’t realize the class said “or Resident Chef”, so that is just something to be aware of. Overall, class went smoothly. Making pasta from scratch was fun and the pasta dish turned out well. The salad and the dessert, however, were underwhelming and I would not make them again. I felt like explanations were lacking during the class. It was quite loud and difficult to hear the instructor, so I dont feel like I learned much. I also have not received a copy of the recipes. Last time I took a class at Sur La Table I received the recipes the same evening of the class.

Fantastic class - I learned a ton about working with laminated doughs. I've tried a couple times in the past, and always had a sticky, tacky mess on my hands. This class taught me tricks and tips, how to work the dough more effectively, what to watch out for. I just pulled a batch of croissants out of the oven, and they are everything I could have ever hoped for, and more. I need to keep a laminated dough on hand at all times now! :D Loved the class, great teacher, very helpful and informative - can't wait to take more classes!
