WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Denver

We cooked a Japanese dinner. Caleb gave a lot of great advice. Everything turned out delicious.

I've been looking for a tempering class for a long time. Chef Maggie was amazing: personable, knowledgeable, experienced and patient. We never felt hurried. In fact, quite the opposite, she encouraged all of us to be patient and let time do its job. And, all of the bon bons were shiny and delicious. Thank you. Highly recommend."

The chef was excellent and the food was delicious, I just have a few notes of improvement for the overall experience. It would make the class a bit more fun to have had music softly in the background that matches the ethnicity of the food we are cooking. Otherwise, the ambience feels a bit sterile. Also, we didn't eat until 8:30/8:40p. It would have been nice during the 10 minute break earlier in the experience to snack on or eat the first dish we cooked just to hold us over until dinner and to eat it before it gets cold. Lastly, when it came time to eat, there were no chairs to sit on so we ate standing up over the table. After standing for 1.5 hours cooking, it would have been nice to have more time to eat and to be able to sit down.
