WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Los Angeles
Jeanie M.
06/29/2025
Was a fantastic experience. Thank you Chef Luana. You made Shari’s birthday very memorable. The food was excellent and we are all looking forward to making fresh pasta. We look forward to taking other classes with you to learn how to make more Italian dishes
Richard B.

Had a fantastic evening learning to make pasta with my wife. Chef Luana is amazing. We learned so much and every bite was so delicious. Highly recommend!
Britni M.
06/20/2025
Such a fun and memorable experience! Chef Luana was warm, engaging, and made the whole pizza-making process so approachable—even for beginners. We made our dough from scratch, learned helpful tips on toppings and baking techniques, and got to personalize our pizzas. The class was super hands-on but still relaxed, and Chef Luana created such a welcoming, social vibe. It honestly felt like being at a friend’s house for a homemade pizza night—except with a pro guiding us every step of the way. Perfect for a date night or just something fun and different to do with your family. I’d definitely take another class with her!
Christopher M.

My girlfriend and I had a lot of fun cooking with Chef Luana. Everything was easy to follow and the food was delicious. We hope to bring some friends with us next time to enjoy this experience. Thank you!
