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!

Kelly did such an amazing job. She made class interesting fun and taught us good techniques to apply. I will definitely return for another class. We drove 4 hours for the cooking class. We arrived a little late I feel a little more details to the instructions on where to find the class would of been more helpful. But overall it was an amazing experience and class. Me and my husband enjoyed it.
