Linda is great! We had a lesson in chiles- fresh and dried- before we got cooking. She kept us engaged and on track. We learned about the effect of salt on flavors… and those flavors were delicious!!

Chef Linda’s knowledge, experience, patience, and understanding were amazing and much appreciated—and the dinner we created was fantastic. I especially enjoyed learning about the “why” behind the “what,” which will provide context to future culinary creations and choices.

Beyond excellent! Linda was wonderful in her food knowledge of history, techniques, and flavoring. The experience was relaxed, engaging, and enjoyable. Even those in our group who had no interest in food and cooking willingly participated. Curiosities and questions were answered. Linda maintained composure as we really made a kitchen mess….but it was well worth it. Thank you Linda!

Linda was amazing! She is very knowledgeable about the history of the foods we prepared. It was a hands-on class and I learned several very useful tips. And you certainly don't go away hungry! We attended the Southwest cooking class - the chili rellenos was delicious and we learned a new way to prepare it. The beans, salad, guacamole and elote were awesome. Can't recommend the class high enough. You won't be disappointed.

We had a fabulous meal and a lot of fun learning and sharing the cooking experience. Chef Linda is very interesting and her ability to educate and demonstrate different techniques of preparation, along with giving us a history of the foods and spices is an added value. Delicious meal!

Chef Linda was outstanding. It was my boyfriends birthday and she went above and beyond my expectations. She has extensive knowledge of the history of food, knife techniques and more! Her home is beautiful, clean, and her kitchen/utensils are top notch! Our family will be doing another class with her!

Knowledge of cooking was excellent. The food we made was very good. However, if you’re looking for a pleasant experience with uncluttered kitchen or dining table staged for a lovely dinner, this would not be a good choice.
