Steak, fries, salad, creme brulee. Enjoyed making garlic aoili, compound butter, vinegrette salad dressing, and the brulee. This class was a gift certificate. I enjoyed it very much. Will most likely schedule another class in pastry making.

This was a lot of fun. Although I thought it was silly that they crowded us all together with another couple. It felt like too many cooks in the kitchen. And it wasn’t the romantic experience we were hoping for. Two table were empty and it would have been the same amount of food. A few more dirty dishes is all. The couple we were with felt the same way.

Steak salad and pasta. This was supposed to be a date night. Had to share everything with another couple. Class overly full. No chairs had to stand for almost 3 hours. It is not sanitary to have other people I don’t know using their bare hands in my food. It was way too loud with so many people that I couldn’t even hear the chef’s instructions. I would not recommend this class as a date night activity. The steak was tough to chew and the dessert was not gelato like advertised it was just melted ice cream. The pasta was amazing and the chef was nice.
