WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Houston
me and my gf took this class and learned SO much!!
I had the croissants class with Chef Stephanie and it was the best class ever. Learned the technique and got lots of tips to be able to be successfully make them at home. Chef Stephanie was, as usual, very patient and made the class an amazing experience.
Outstanding experience, highly recommend! Enjoyed the discussion and the explanation of how and why we were preparing things the way we were. Also, learned about new spices and cooking tips.
Three of us went for Haute Halal Filipino Favorites class, we enjoyed the company and the food. We also had a visitor that brought in Tamales to taste, so that was a surprise and fun. But we felt that if this was a cooking class we left without learning anything from the Chef. We were hoping for insight into Philippines cooking and basics but we ended up with pre cooked soup that was already made before we showed up. The starter was also pre-made before we showed up. There was only one station so only one person got hands on experience of cooking 3 dishes. So if you want to learn this is not the class for you. If you want to have good food and company this is a great experience. The price felt steep for what our experience was.
