Great corporate team retreat and team bonding experience. Our team learned several new recipes, ate delicious food, and had a ton of fun working in the kitchen and dining together. Chef Sayeh and her team were wonderful, encouraging, accommodating to our dietary needs, and kept us on task--even though we were a rather large group. I highly recommend this great team-building activity.

We hosted a large group for a team building event this week and it 100% exceeded our expectations. Chef Sayeh's energy is amazing. Rave reviews and appreciation from the entire group. If you're looking for a fun and engaging team activity, I highly encourage you to check out the DC Cooking School

Chef Sayeh was fun, engaging, and talented at managing our large group. Food was delicious. Only feedback for future events is to better clarify the location ahead of time. Several of our guests searched "DC Cooking School" in their ride share app or maps, and it took them to a different location than the correct address. The door to the school was also challenging to find, so better signage / way-finding would be helpful.

A team building experience is a great way to bring a group together in a fun, engaging, and collaborative environment. The activity encourages communication, creativity, and teamwork. The hands-on format allows everyone to actively participate, regardless of skill level. Chef Sayeh and her team are professional, enthusiastic, and skilled at guiding the group. The atmosphere is relaxed and fun! Highly recommended!
