Cooking Class - Classic French Recipes

Wonderful experience! Very educational and fun! We signed up to celebrate our 3 year anniversary. The recipes pushed us out of our comfort zone and we learned a lot of practical tips to use with other meals.

My recent sushi cooking class with Chef Monica was an absolute delight. Set in an intimate dining area, the atmosphere was cozy and inviting, fostering a sense of camaraderie among participants. One highlight was meeting a lovely couple who shared laughs and stories throughout the session, adding an extra layer of warmth to the experience. Chef Monica's interactive teaching style made learning the art of sushi-making a breeze. From mastering the use of chopsticks to crafting our own rolls, every step was guided with patience and expertise. The intimate setting allowed for personalized attention, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and engaged. Overall, the class was a perfect blend of fun, learning, and delicious food. I left with not only newfound sushi-making skills but also fond memories of a delightful evening spent in good company. Highly recommended for anyone looking to spice up their culinary repertoire in a relaxed and enjoyable setting.

We went over on time, but had a great experience learning how to make various doughs from scratch! I loved that we learned the whys and didn’t just follow recipes so there’s more understanding behind it all.

My husband and I loved this experience. Chef Monica was super knowledgeable and so interesting to talk to, I mean that in the best way possible. The food was delicious and we learned so much about different types of flour and information about gluten. We made gnocchi with truffle Gouda, profiteroles, tart tatan and dough for naan. Chef Monica fed us bruschetta and vegan chocolate ice cream. This was just a treat. Delightful experience. Thank you for the sourdough starter!!

Cleanliness of home was a problem. Hair and dust on table. Not very organized. We did not get all courses. Chef gave my wife plate with hair in it. Rice had hair in it as well…Seemed very haphazard. Really disappointing.

Monica did a great job and the food was wonderful.

Chef Monica was awesome!! She was very passionate about sushi and cooking. She also loves her class and brought a lot of energy! If you are wanting to learn about sushi, I definitely recommend Chef Monica!

Chef was warm and knowledgable!

Just wonderful :) - we left with a head full of knowledge, good food, a great hands on experience, a desire to make sourdough and understanding so much more about gluten, food production and more. Highly recommended. Be sure to ask questions from this food industry insider!!!

Absolutely amazing!! Chef Monica was able to customize a menu that fit exactly what I was looking for. The food was insanely good, and the service was even better. Definitely looking forward to another meal from chef. Well done!!

Chef Monica is super sweet and we learned so much about the benefits of being vegan! Definitely recommend this class, it was fun!

Monica was beyond excellent. Best Italian food we’ve had since we were in Rome.

She was amazing!!!

The experience with Chef Monica was incredible. She was friendly, a great host, very knowledgeable chef and very informative. She made it very easy for me to learn as she gave step-by-step instructions that were easy to follow. I learned how to cook several tasty dishes. I would highly recommend her.

The meal was delicious but here are my suggestions on what I would have preferred: It would have been nice to have the entree items served together (risotto, rabe, potatoes, and osso bucco) instead of separate courses. This way guests are not getting too full before you actually got to the meat. She had prepared large portions especially of the risotto and Osso bucco, which was nice to put in the freezer. I would have liked to have more of a demonstration on making the risotto and even a better review of the recipe and pertinent food tips. The dessert was wonderful and I think was actually our favorite item of the meal. Overall, I would certainly do one of these again.

Chef Monica was a wonderful teacher and host. All of the food was delicious, and we learned a lot. It's definitely a science lesson and cooking lesson wrapped into one. We left very full and happy.

Yes, we loved Chef Monica! She is a very nice, informative and honest chef! We had a great time cooking healthy vegan food!

Chef Monica was amazing. I am so glad we chose her and the authentic Northern Italian menu. I highly recommend her!

Chef Monica was awesome! She made the whole experience enjoyable and not only discussed how to make the food but explained the science behind the ingredients. Not only did we have a wonderful meal but we had a very entertaining time learning! Thanks for making this a wonderful experience for us!

Chef Monica was fantastic. Prepared everything, answered all our questions, made fantastic food, explained the dishes, and left the area as clean (or better) than she found it! Definitely recommend Chef Monica!

The cooking class with Chef Monica was wonderful. She is a very educated and professional chef. She taught us so much about the science of food and ways to cook vegan food. The food was also so delicious. Thank you so much for a personalized, one of a kind experience. I will definitely book another class with her!

I was given this experience by my Husband for Date night as a surprise. Did not know what I was expecting. To start Monica was very welcoming and a bit surprised by my husband not letting her in it was a surprise for me. So we both were surprised in a good way. As we walked in the home was very well kept. Very clean and the dinner table was prepared for guests. We continued in she directed us where to put our items and to make ourselves comfortable, which we appreciated. She began to confirm all the food items we were going to make this night. Needless to say, I was so super surprised by it all. As we are attempting as Vegan beginners and this was so excellent. Monica was super informative and educational in every aspect and she also explained as she was demonstrating various options which meals we could make adjustments to if need be when we are preparing them. Super pleasant personality and was very well prepared, she has all utensils you ever want to have and need as we expect nothing less from a Super Chef. What I appreciated most was she has no pets and her house is very clean physically and regarding food ingredients. Everything she pulled out was either vegan or organic. She was very patient and helpful. Monica was not just a demonstrator she allowed us to get in there and cook also, the true meaning of a Cooking Class. Another good part is we all sit and eat, talk, and learn a little more like a family, and being that she truly enjoys what she does it was like being in a family kitchen and being taught how to cook all over. Thank you, Monica I am very grateful my husband chose this as a surprise for me, it was a super choice. I'm not sure why I see a bad review, especially regarding Dog hair as she does not own any pets, so this could be a mistake. Monica, we appreciate you also sending us all the recipes we made in class and some others. Thanks for your time.

This class was excellent. We learned a lot and had a great time

Great chef, educator and host. I learned a lot about traditional Ukrainian dishes and how to make my own crepes! 5/5 stars!

Amazing class.

Monica was excellent! She is very knowledgeable in food science and nutrition. I look forward to coming back!

Not only was Chef Monica's meal wonderful, she was a delight to have in our home!

We enjoyed a beautiful 6-course meal with Chef Monica to celebrate my mother's 70th bday, and she was wonderful! All fresh, organic ingredients; a specially created menu to meet my mother's dietary needs (no sugar, lower carb); and Monica was lovely to speak with throughout the evening and left the kitchen clean and tidy. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Chef Monica is amazing. We had a wonderful evening. The food and the instructions were so good. This was the best cooking class I’ve ever had. I’d highly recommend this one and any class she teaches.

Chef Monica has so much knowledge about cooking, and what ingredients can make food healthier. She has a great personality, and welcomes the interaction throughout the class. I really enjoyed it.

We just had the most amazing time learning how to prepare a 4-course vegan meal from Chef Monica. Each item left us drooling and will definitely be included in our frequent dishes at home. W cannot wait to come back again!

Fun class!

This is truly the authentic Italian cuisine of the highest level.

Great skill and expertise in proposing innovative dishes that are absolutely unique. To lick your fingers.

A delicious business dinner, truly exceptional. After several attempts, we found our Chef of referment. Monica is super!

I never imagined finding an Italian Chef of this level in Atlanta! An unparalleled level indeed. An unforgettable experience that must absolutely be repeated.

Chef Monica is a wonderful chef who aims to provide unforgettably tasteful experiences. She is super friendly and I totally recommend working with her if you are in the Atlanta area.
