Great class. Thank you so much! All my questions answered, even when they didn't have anything to do with the recipes. Intimate setting was really nice, very personal. Food was delicious, and it gave me some new ideas for expanding on what we made. Chef Jackie is an excellent teacher.

This class was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The instructor was knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about vegan cooking. Every recipe was thoughtfully designed, easy to follow, and absolutely delicious. I loved how the class focused not just on recipes, but on why ingredients work together, how to build flavor without animal products, and how to make meals that are both nourishing and satisfying. The atmosphere was welcoming, fun, and encouraging, making it easy to ask questions and try new techniques without feeling intimidated. I walked away inspired, confident, and excited to recreate everything at home.

Chef Jackie cooked up a delicious, social evening--using the freshest ingredients and creating the warmest environment. She cut and cubed her way into each of our hearts, and empowered us to cook with a bit more confidence. Who knew the best chocolate pudding dessert could be made with garbanzo beans?! Chef Jackie, thank you!

We had a great time cooking with Chef Jackie! Learned a lot in a fun and relaxing environment, and of course the food was delicious. Especially appreciate that Chef Jackie made sure to keep us involved in the cooking process and gave us a friendly nudge in the right direction if we weren't doing something correctly. It's important to give that kind of proper instruction and constructive criticism. Would definitely recommend a class with Chef Jackie!

Our experience with chef Jackie was nothing short of incredible! We had so much fun and truly learned so much that we can apply in our everyday cooking. She was patient with us and also really lovely to chat with as well. My boyfriend and I both agreed that it was one of the best Friday nights we’ve ever had. I highly recommend booking a class with Chef Jackie!

Jeff Jackie's event/experience largely exceeded my expectations. Not only the recipes were fabulous, she is a great teacher. We learn many basic cooking technics, such as how to properly hold a knife, ways to cut scallions, etc, etc. The food tasted amazing. Thank you so much Jackie

Chef Jackie taught a super fun and informative class! The food that we made was delicious and I really liked that she infused her Lebanese culture into the meals because they were very unique. I learned a lot of new cooking techniques that I will apply on a daily basis, and I already bought ingredients to make one of the amazing dishes she instructed. This class truly exceeded my expectations!

Personable, great instruction and practical application. Terrific recipes in a nurturing environment. Oh, and did I mention delicious?! I may even get her cookbook!

We very much enjoyed Chef Jackie's Lebanese cooking class. She customized the menu for us (presumably possible only because the two of us were the only students that day). She is a warm, welcoming host, and the food was tasty. Making the food was a lot of fun and we very much enjoyed the meal at the end. The recipes are good, but if you are an interested cook willing to experiment, you can find good recipes for anything on the internet. So, though our meal was delicious, what we appreciated even more was Chef Jackie's instruction in broader aspects of cooking. She will, for example, correct your knife technique, showing you the best way to hold and use a chef's knife, and giving you chances to repeat newly-learned motions. She's been a teacher for years, and it shows. We'll put the skills we learned to use in daily life. This was an excellent experience all around.
