This was by far the best cooking class that I have ever taken. Chef Ivan is an excellent educator who really cares that his students learn about proper strategies for cooking the chosen recipes. I would highly recommend his course to others and will definitely be signing up for another one of his courses.

Chef gave excellent instructions and answered ALL of our questions. I would have appreciated some individual feedback on our/my cutting skills to help me develop my proficiency withe a chef’s knife.
