Chef Avi was excellent. He gave us a lot of information about knifes and cutting techniques, we learned about new vegetables that we didn’t know and had the chance to taste them. We also learned a lot about how to select vegetables and difference that we didn’t know (like the sex of peppers
Amazing experience! Very friendly and authentic. Food was amazing and he took the time to really show how it’s done properly, as well as explaining every step carefully. Very personable and had great conversations with him.
We had a wonderful experience with Chef Simone! He was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and patient. All 3 ravioli dishes we made were absolutely delicious and we hope to make them again. I highly recommend his cooking class to others :)
Chef Simone was awesome to work with, super professional and fun! This was such a great experience, and I’d definitely do it again.
