Chef JD’s cooking class is sheer joy – a perfect combination of learning, entertainment, and enjoying a delicious meal. Chef JD makes such delicious food, has such an amazing personality, and is so welcoming, knowledgeable, and fun – he should really have his own show on the Food Network! Kudos also to assistant Gustavo – many thanks! Definitely book an experience with Chef JD for yourself and your next team-building event.

My husband I did the Italian cooking class and it was amazing last night. We had a blast learning how to make our own pasta and bolognese sauce. The chef did a great job having everything set up and made the cooking process easy and fun. I would recommend this to any couple looking for a fun date night. We look forward to attending another one of cooking classes in the near future.

My boyfriend and I LOVED the recent brunch-themed class we took at Salt & Pepper. The classes are very hands-on and we learned a lot about technique too (like how to perfectly poach an egg!). JD manages to be in three or four places at once, answering questions, taste-testing and noting different food preferences (I wanted my eggs benedict over hard). We'll definitely be back and love being able to support this small business. Don't forget to BYOB!

Had a great time at the holiday cooking class! As a midwestern transplant I don’t always have family close by to give me tips on the thanksgiving essentials: how do you brine a turkey? How long do I cook this thing? What exactly IS a “giblet” (hint: you don’t really want to know ). The class at S&P helped me understand all of the above, plus many other useful pieces of advice. It was BYOB and there was pouring service which was a nice touch. Plus the food was AWESOME! Honestly worth it for the food alone Will be back again!
