We cooked the Strip Steak with Chianti Pan Sauce, crispy gnocchi with arugula salad with lemon-parmesan dressing. I learned to make gnocchi which was fun. The whole event was a great time. Our counter has just the right amount of people which was 4. We were not over crowded like the other counter that had 8. I think 6 is a good number. We would definitely do this again.

My husband and I attended a cooking class with Chef Michelle and it was a fantastic experience. Her passion for food and love for teaching were evident in every aspect of the class. She provided clear and easy to follow instructions, making even the most complex recipes seem simple. The class was not only informative but also enjoyable, with Chef Michelle's friendly and approachable demeanor. I highly recommend taking a cooking class with Chef Michelle for anyone looking to improve their culinary skills and have a great time doing so. We’ll definitely be booking her again!
