WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Seattle
10/07/2026
Such a fun experience! We learned how to make ramen, vegetable tempura, and dessert (fruit jelly), and everything was absolutely delicious! I got to help make the dessert, and it was so interesting to see the whole process come together. I'm definitely someone who learns best by doing, so I really appreciated the hands-on experience. The class was fun, engaging, and a great way to learn something new.

We had a great time making a delicious French dinner! Chef Washington is extremely personable and welcoming; his kitchen was prepped, well-equipped, and clean, with plenty of space to move around to the different stations. Our goal was to learn more about French sauces and flavors, and the experience exceeded our expectations. We will definitely book again!

We had a wonderful experience with Chef Jane. From the start, her communication was excellent. She kept us informed and made planning easy. On the day, she arrived with all the ingredients, so we didn't have to worry about a thing.
The meal was delicious, but what made it special was how much we learned. Chef Jane taught us new skills and techniques we'll definitely use again. She then served everything at the table like a proper restaurant experience, and afterward she took care of all the cleanup. We got to simply relax and enjoy the evening.
Highly recommend Chef Jane to anyone looking for a fun, hands-on, and stress-free cooking experience!

We loved the Moroccan cooking class with Chef Washington. Cooking a few things we had never cooked before. Chef had all of the ingredients prepared so the class would flowed well and quick, allowing enough time to sit and enjoy what we cooked while we chatted with the others in the class and Chef. Would recommend 100%!
