We had an incredible time learning how to make three types of vegan pasta from scratch with Charlene. She brought all the ingredients and came prepared with necessary tools. All we needed to have on hand were knives, cutting boards, and pots. Not only was it three hours of fun, but the final products were absolutely delicious. It was so hard to pick a favourite. Would absolutely recommend this class; we are already thinking about having her back to learn some other dishes. I wish I could have rated this experience 10 out of 5!

I booked Charlene for my fiance's and my 6 year anniversary. To say this was the best cooking class I've ever taken would be an understatement! Charlene was super fun, informative, accommodating, and all around professional. The 3 vegan pastas we made chock-full of flavour too. I would recommend Charlene if you are looking for great food and experience!

My friends and I had the best time learning how to make vegan tarts with Chef Charlene! First, she is such a good teacher and made learning all these recipes and techniques so fun and easy. Second, the food was outrageously delicious... it was so flavourful we couldn't believe we had made it. Finally, we laughed a lot and really enjoyed the experience. I would highly recommend this, or any course, offered by Charlene.

Our experience with Chef Charlene was AMAZING. The food we cooked together was absolutely delicious. Exceeded our expectations. Even our 12 year old daughter had a blast learning about vegan food and how to cook it. I highly recommend any class with chef Charlene. She is fun, very professional, and knows her stuff!

Our cooking experience with Charlene was tremendous. She was able to share her expert culinary knowledge in a warm, engaging, highly skillful and thoroughly enjoyable manner with a group of 7 family members who presented with a diverse range of cooking experience! She made it work. I cannot recommend Charlene more highly. We all had a tremendous time together. Most importantly, our completed vegan meal was beyond delicious, beautifully plated and thoroughly enjoyed by our whole group. We chopped, cooked and prepared with our own hands. Thank you Charlene for making the celebration of a special family birthday so enjoyable and memorable. Well done and thank you again!

Charlene was absolutely excellent! Phenomenal class, she did a great job of explaining the dishes (along with great stories!) and keeping both of us occupied while we were cooking. Neither of us felt left out of the experience of the cooking class! The food was absolutely excellent and will be trying to make the recipes again! 10/10 Experience

We had a great dinner party (9 in total), and overall Charlene was very good; very professional, well organized, and the food was very nice. We especially liked the crabless cakes. The group was not all veg or vegan, but everyone enjoyed the food.

Let me start by saying that I am not a vegan, however I have had several dishes made by Chef Charlene and she throws down! Her food is consistently good, flavourful and tasty. I drove over an hour once just to eat her food. What does that tell you? Yes, it's that good!

The service received was top notch. Great customer service. I am new to vegan dishes, and your dishes are delicious, which had me trying all your wonderful flavourful meals. They are perfect! It is difficult to choose a favorite, because they are all great. Will definately be coming back for more.

I have had the pleasure of using Charlene's services. First let me start by saying, I am not a vegan, but her food was fabulous and I would gladly eat her food anytime. She makes me want to become vegan. I would recommend anybody, vegans, non-vegans and those curious about going vegan to try her food, you won't be disappointed. The quality and taste were above and beyond my expectations. The items were well-prepared and beautifully presented. I took part in one of her cooking classes and let me tell you, the vegan bacon and peach cobbler are to die for. The bacon was crispy and flavourful and the peach cobbler was melt in your mouth. Charlene is professional and takes pride and care with the food she prepares. I will definitely be using her services again when the time comes.

Chef Charlene is absolutely amazing. Most vegan cakes I’ve had are dry and dense. Here’s are light and fluffy, had me fooled. I never would have thought it was vegan. Would eat it forever

Chef Charlene is a dream! It's always a pleasure working with her. Her food is beyond delicious. I never feel like I'm missing out on flavours because I'm having a vegan meal. From her meal prep to her catering, I've enjoyed it all.
