Melissa C.

Booked the class Dim Sum Oasis with Chef Donna in Carlsbad

So fun and easy! Definitely looking to take another class at this location with friends. Thank you!!

Robert C.

Booked the class Exploring Chinese Flavors With Professional Tips with Chef Donna in Carlsbad

I enjoyed this class very much. I am already signed up for other classes. The chef was great. I asked about receiving the recipes & she said they would be emailed . I have not received them. I even checked my spam file. I would really like to have those recipes so I can transition them to vegan for my wife & I. Thank you, Robert Chavez

Tyler G.

Booked the class Mastering Asian Staples with Chef Rodney in San Diego (Serra Mesa)

Chef Rodney made cooking enjoyable! Everything we made was delicious. I would definitely take another class from him.

Liz F.

Booked the class A Taste of China with Chef Jordan W. in Jamul (Marina)

This was our 2nd class with Chef Jordan, and just as enjoyable as the first one! We had fun, learned a lot, and ate great food! Thanks again

Kathleen G.

Booked the class Discover Classic Wok Cooking with Chef Donna in Carlsbad

This was terrible. Do not book with “Chef Michael.” Our chef was a frantic women who had “owned ten restaurants” in the past. The class was extremely disorganized and we learned very little. My husband and I kept joking that we were at Montessori school because our only job was to pour undisclosed ingredients into different containers and stir them. We had no access to the recipe throughout the class and when we asked for it again at the end, she said it would be emailed to us. The chef however, referred to her private paper copy whenever she needed. I had expected by the class description that we would be learning techniques for how to use/handle a wok, there was nothing the sort. The wok sat stationary on the burner the whole time with no instruction on how to properly handle it. We just mixed with a spatula. I had also imagined this to be a date night with my husband but we were paired up with an older women (who was wonderful btw) into a small group then all shared the food. You will be put into small groups of up to four people which is important to know. We then just stood around the table we prepped the food at the end to eat, it was honestly awkward. To top it all off, everyone’s chicken was undercooked at the end. We didn’t used any kind of thermometer to check the temperature of the chicken or the oil, and no timing to make sure it had cooked long enough. Just random direction from the chef on when to take it out from her eyeballing it. We were extra frustrated at this because we even expressed our concern that it wasn’t cooked at the way through and she was very condescending and said it was time because now it was burning on the outside (so it must be done in the middle!) idiot. Chef Michael is a scam. He will just sell off the entire class to private equity bullshit.
