Chef Grace was fantastic! She not only showed us how to cook everything, but she explained WHY we did the steps that we did, as well as changes that we could make to modify the recipe our own. ABsolutely delicious meal, definitely left stuffed. Cannot recommend enough.

Chef Grace led a group of 4 through three meals from scratch very quickly and as efficiently as possible! We enjoyed the meal at the end of the class and really loved being able to take dessert home. I'm excited to utilize some of what we learned in our private session at home!

The class was great. Her house was well suited for the class, she was fun and informative, and the recipes were all very good both on their own and for developing more broad Chinese cooking foundations.

Chef Grace is AMAZING! She led a wonderful, welcoming culinary experience where we got to try new recipes and learn about the rich culture and history behind each food. She was well-prepared and on-time, and I couldn't have asked for a better chef to lead my first cooking class. You must try her class!

My girlfriend and I had a great experience with Grace. There is something really nice about having just the three of us that makes it a more intimate, awesome experience. Grace was great. And the food was incredible. She has my highest recommendation.

"We had a great time at Chef Grace’s. She was super friendly and patient and explained what and why we were doing things a particular way. Everything we ended up making was super delicious and she was able to modify the dishes to make them vegetarian. We had plenty of leftovers. Would highly recommend this experience!"

Grace took our birthday event to the next level and turned it from a memorable moment to a magical experience! She was everything you could ask for from a host: friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, and fun. Everything we made was easy, delicious, and will keep us full for days. I can't recommend her enough!

I booked a class with Chef Grace to celebrate my anniversary with my husband. We had an amazing time and now we have more recipes to cook when we are out of ideas. Grace was super friendly and patient with us and shared some of her stories traveling around the world. Everything was super clean and ready for us to use. Totally worth the price and the drive

Chef Grace was great! She was attentive to our food preferences, which she confirmed before the meal. She instructed us in different techniques by showing briefly and then letting us practice by doing it ourselves. The food we made was delicious and we have many leftovers. Don’t forget to bring Tupperware!

Grace's place was easy to find, and she communicated the arrival and directions very well. Upon arriving, Grace offered us water and gave us a little background about herself and what we would be doing that evening. We then went into the kitchen and got right to work. There were (3) of us in our group. Grace would explain what we were doing and then one of us would jump in. Plenty of hands on cooking, which was nice because we actually made the food we ate. Grace was patient, funny, energetic, and informative. The tofu meatballs were my favorite, they were so good. Grace even offered us a beer or wine while we cooked, which was super nice. After the tofu appetizers, we made our shrimp stir fry and then our hot and sour soup. Then the 3 of us retired to the dining room for dinner. Everything tasted great! We had leftovers and Grace gave us a recyclable container to take everything home. Would definitely recommend. = )

This weekend was extremely exciting. We had a blast with Chef Grace. Three hour cooking class and believe me, when I tell you that Chef Grace is a lot of fun. We learned the history about Chinese cuisine and made authentic dishes from scratch. The patience of virtue with the both of us is to be commended. The entire meal was delicious. I still can't believe that we created a beautiful meal. Also, most importantly, Chef Grace is absolutely graceful and welcoming. We will definitely be taking more classes... Thank you, Chef Grace Tamesha & Lenny

My husband and I had a great time taking Chef Grace’s Chinese pastry class. We learned how to make three items over the course of three hours. Grace welcomed us into her home and kitchen and we met another nice couple. The course was very hands on, some items were pre prepped due to time but Grace thoroughly went through the recipe and technique and explained the directions as we went along. She answered any questions we had and checked on us as we finished each step. The rice cakes were unique and the egg tarts were delicious. We also loved the Shanghai wonton soup- very comforting and easy to make at home. We also went home with leftovers and some wonton to make for another meal. Overall we had a good time and enjoyed working with grace to make these dishes! Planning to make again for our families for lunar new year. Thanks chef!

Great class! Chef Grace was fantastic! Knowledgeable and efficient! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Chef Grace was able to assist us in preparing a delicious meal that we hope to duplicate at home. ( Egg cart, Shanghai wonton, and Top scholar cake) She offered tips on food preparation and provided some history on the origins of food we enjoyed that evening. Would highly recommend!

We had a fun evening with Chef Grace cooking and learning about Chinese cuisine – it was delicious! We learned a lot of tips and hints about the different ingredients as well as cooking stir fry with a wok. This was perfect for a couple’s night out: relaxing atmosphere, good conversation, informative and of course a great dinner that we cooked and ate.

A beautiful and rich experience. Grace taught us to make three delicious recipes as well as essential techniques regarding using a wok, cutting, stir-fry and food preparation. She also gave us helpful advice on shopping for ingredients and was kind and fun to work with. We'd love to take another lesson and learn more from her.

Chef Grace is wonderful!! We learned an immense amount, from knife and wok technique to working together through recipes for delicious sauces, soups, and stir fry. It is so hard to find serious Chinese cooking lessons in the Bay Area, and this was a lovely, fabulous evening.

Grace was very enchanting. She loves to make up receipes that are tasteful, yet simplistic in their creation. She is also an inspiring teacher, illustrating to you step by step, how you can easily duplicate what you've learned. I loved the way she mixed her instruction with stories from her travels and what she learned along the way. A delightful evening of travel and taste. What more could one ask for?
