Jordan was fantastic! The whole experience felt very wholesome. Jordans demeanor is very soft and gentle and helps rid the environment of any sort of judgement/stress when learning new things. He is also very well spoken and taught us the fundamentals very well. He is very knowledgeable and we learned alot. I would highly recommend Jordans class. The only negative thing I have to say is that the kitchen used (specifically for my class - Union Kitchen in NE DC) is pretty rundown.

Our party of 6 had a great time learning how to make pasta from scratch. We were already good, long-time friends, but cooking together and eating what we cooked added something new and magical to our bond. Having Jordan as a chef was a blessing. He came well-prepared, brought all ingredients and cooking utensils. He walked us through the prep steps showing us and letting us try his techniques. The food at end was super delicious!
