Booked the class Create a Spanish Menu - Date Night with Chef Monica in Houston (Montrose)

We attended as a family for my wife's birthday. This was som much better than just going out to dinner to celebrate. The menu was great and we learned some new cooking tips, all the while working together!

Booked the class Brasserie Culinary Comforts with Chef Monica in Houston (Montrose)

The class was not led by Monica but by a young 20 year old. He did a good job. The class was good and the food (NY strip steak and frites with arugula salad) was phenomenal. I didn't love that they put you in groups of 4 because we didn't get to participate in everything. All in all it was a nice date.

My teenage daughter and her dad had an amazing time cooking together. It was the perfect gift for them to not only spend quality time together but also celebrate how great of a dad he is.

Booked the class Latin Flavors - Date Night with Chef Monica in Houston (Montrose)

It was amazing!! Food was superb. I definitely felt like they were advertising for us to buy some of their tools because they were so convenient to use lol! That’s like some of the best food we’ve ever made and we had a Latina in our group and she was also amazed.

Booked the class Pasta: Two Ways with Chef Monica in Houston (Montrose)

I was the first one who got to class. It started off good, but I was not even cooking. Just rolled dough. Everyone had a partner. Still ok. THEN they tell us to take a break & would call us back in. I was standing in front of the glass store. I came in 10 min, But They had already started class without me. They said they called everyone in. Umm you don’t count students?! They had already cut the noodles & was making a sauce. I was very mad. Grabbed my stuff to leave. As I left I yelled this was the worst class ever taken. Cussed as I was headed out the door & left. I lingered because I wanted my money back. Saw she wasn’t going to help, so I left. The female cook above was rude rude!! Unfair to charge me for a class, not pay attention to me missing, making it seem like it’s my fault they started without me!! Terrible terrible class. Didn’t finish class & got no food! Called my bank last night to cancel. Telling everyone how they just left me outside waiting -who does that?!!! Monica just told me, how was I to know you were standing in front of the window?!! Ummm I’m in your class, you had around 10 students.. counting was learned on Sesame Street. No excuses I say!! Putting on yelp & all social media too.

Booked the class Macaron Secrets with Chef Monica in Houston (Montrose)

First of all, the chef was over 10 minutes late to showing up for the meal. We were made to wait outside and not let in until the chef came. Once the chef finally showed up, her helper was extremely rude and yelled at us like we were five year-old. She was condescending, Kurt, and above all extremely unfriendly. As a paying customer who paid a good amount of money for this lesson, it made the whole experience stressful. Then, as if that wasn’t enough, when we registered for the class, I was told it was two hours long. The class was supposed to be from 9 to 11. The macaroons that we made during the class were not even pulled out of the oven until noon thus, making me miss an appointment. finally, when I signed up for this as a Mother’s Day gift for my mom and I to do together, I did not realize that we would have to be sharing ingredients and sharing what we made with other groups. For the amount of money I spent for this experience, my mom and I walked away with only five macaroons between the two of us. Overall, this was a horrible experience and I will never use. cozy meal again if this is how the experiences are.

Booked the class Knife Skills For Beginners with Chef Monica in Houston (Montrose)

The class is was just “okay.” We could have used some more attention. We were promised by the instructor that two assistants would be helping with the class. However, they were loud and distracting in the background talking and helping “Chef Monica” prepare for her next class and neglected to help our instructor other than occasionally throwing out trash. I almost cut myself twice and no one seemed to notice. The instructor got off-topic a lot too. I’d like to have a more personalized experience. There was not much monitoring of the customers and I felt a bit lost at times. Assistants that were dedicated toward our class and not “Chef Monica’s” would have been helpful.

John M. 07/22/2024

Booked the class Knife Skills For Beginners with Chef Monica in Houston (Montrose)

More 1-1 instruction from the assistants would have been very helpful. None of them helped us. They were loud and distracting as they were helping Chef Monica prepare for her next class. If our instructor would have stayed more on point rather than story-telling throughout the class, I would have found the class more useful. Overall, I thought the class was 'just OK'. However, I would still consider signing up for another class.
