I took my niece to this class and it was amazing! We cooked gnocchi, bruschetta and tiramisu. Everything was new to us, so we learned so much! Chef Miguel is a wonderful teacher. Patient, knowledgeable, funny…we would absolutely recommend anyone looking to learn about cooking, ideas for new dishes or just to have fun, take this course!

We prepared aquafaba chocolate mousse, mushroom stroganoff and veggie summer rolls. All vegan! It was news to me you can create vegan meringue from garbanzo beans haha. Chef Miguel really made the experience unforgettable, he was present and engaging the entire time.

We had an amazing experience. Chef made us feel so comfortable, despite us having no cooking skills at all. Not only did the meal turn out delicious, but we enjoyed ourselves, and made a new great friend.

We cooked bruschetta, creamy sage gnocchi and tomato gnocchi made from scratch, and tiramisu in cups. Chef Miguel was very organized, gave great cooking tips - I learned which Italian spices is best to introduce at the start of cooking compared to at the end of cooking, efficient ways to cut onions and garlic and basil, as well as how to make gnocchi from scratch! I would def recommend Chef Miguel

We made bruschetta, potato gnocchi, and tiramisu. Chef Miguel was a very personable, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional teacher. We had a very good time and lots of laughs, looking forward to scheduling another lesson with Chef Miguel. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to expand their culinary knowledge.

What an awesome experience! Chef Miguel was so welcoming and made us feel right at home. He was incredibly knowledgeable and was a great teacher. Things we didn't know he gave us easy to understand instruction, and what we did know, he made us feel good about the job we were doing. The setting for the class was very well kept and Chef kept his workplace tidy and very professional. The baked goods that we were able to complete were spectacular and made us feel like we were real life bakers! We are very much so looking forward to working with him again. We can not stress this enough.. If you have the chance to take a class with Chef Miguel, DO IT! You are in great hands!
