We learned basic cooking techniques and had such a lovely time! We also broke through myths around oils, cutting boards and air-fryers. Jailyn was so welcoming and kept us entertained throughout the class. Highly recommend!

Our chef Lyn was professional, patient and humorous during class. My son paid for the class as a birthday gift for my sister and me. We had a ball and have been recommending the class to all our friends.
