Cooking Class - Flavors of the French Riviera

We didn't end up having Chef Eric, which was disappointing because we booked this class specifically after reading his reviews. Instead, the chef we got seemed untrained/unfamiliar with teaching a cooking class. When we arrived, he was still reading the recipe, and he seemed at a loss multiple times throughout the class. His attitude was odd; he was very vulgar and didn't seem to like answering questions, which is part of what made it seem like he hadn't had much experience teaching. He also spent extra time with certain people and offered no help or conversation to others. The worst of it came towards the end, the class was running behind, and he got the pans way too hot to cook the Bok Choy. When he went to deglaze the pan that I was working next to, he added too much water to the already way too hot pan and gave it a hard shake, causing the oil and water to splash out of the pan and onto my face and torso. Fortunately, the burns weren't too bad and have only left some minor red marks on my face one day later, but it did get oil stains on the shirt I was wearing that I couldn't get out. I was looking forward to this class, but was disappointed.

The class was well organized, informative and a lot of fun!

Hi It was chef Mimi. She’s great. She told us that we will get the receipes. Can you please share them with me?

Great work by the whole team - it was an enjoyable experience for all ages (note that Chef Eric was not the one running this but the chef who did was also very kind / helpful)

Fantastic experience, Chef Eric was great!

I thoroughly enjoyed this class!

Overall great experience! The recipe was really delicious, better than I expected. The instructor made the ice cream and I was hoping that we’d learn that part - as I knew how to cook everything else. A good time nonetheless!

Fun experience and wonderful instruction! Thank you Chef Eric!

Great class!! Very instructive and fun!

We didn’t have Eric but some woman. Instructions weren’t that thought out and for groups of four, more equipment should have been available. You should offer classes for groups of 2. Not enough hands on time with four people and you can’t experience cooking the meal.

Great class and well organized, food turned out perfect!

Class was fun and we made new friends. Would love to do this again

Chef Eric was AMAZING!!! He was such a great instructor and has such an infectious personality!! His charisma + skill made our experience very much worth it!!!

Great time! Highly recommend!

Had a BLAST!! Chef Eric was amazing! Bought as a Father's Day gift... didn't think he would enjoy as much as he did... even my tween said he had fun (thats says a lot)!!!! Will be booking more classes soon! Thanks Chef and team!

We had a great time.

Mimi created an amazing, informative and fun environment for all. Highly recommend! How do I get a copy of recipes for dishes created?

Mimi was amazing! She did a wonderful job of interacting with the class and explaining each step of the meal to ensure our success! The food was delicious and we can’t wait for our next class!

Excelent

It was great! Instructor had so many helpful tips beyond the dish. Such a good experience!

Fun experience! Great food!

Great team event! Venue was great, instructions were easy, and dinner was delicious. Thanks Chef Mimi and crew Johnathan and Robert!

We enjoyed it!

The food was delicious and Chef Eric made it a very fun evening!

Me and my partner had so much fun in this class. Chef Eric was very informative and made the class so fun and enjoyable. We will be returning!

It was a fun and interactive experience. Definitely would recommend and come back too!

The experience was great. The Chef is amazing and his coworkers too.

Food was delicious. Eric is a top tier instructor and chef. Very knowledgeable and great sense of humor.

Food was delicious and cooking was a blast.

Great experience and our Chef had a wealth of experience and knowledge! We absolutely adored her! Highly recommend!

My wife Christine and I went there for our first cooking class together. We had a great time, learned a lot, and certainly are going there again!

Very friendly and made good food. Was with the resident who seemed a bit newer but very sweet. Enjoyed the location!

Very good but I didn't get any of the recipes including the more preferable Italian butter cream.

I had a great time. This was a perfect hands-on course.

Absolutely delicious food! Really enjoyed the group and the chef leading the class.

The instructor was Fantastic!

Loved it, but would have preferred smaller class size so that we could work in groups of two.

Terrific class taught by Molly! Can't believe I actually made edible crepes! The whole menu was great!

Loved the menu and the class taught by Molly! I have already made the entire meal for friends at home!

Class was fun , my teen grandson loved it. We can't wait to do another class together.

The class was great! The menu was delicious and doable at home. The instructor was spot on. Looking forward to doing the next class!

It was excellent. It was very hands on, and the class was small. Justin, the chef that was the class instructor, is a fantastic, hands on teacher.

My husband and I had an enjoyable time. The food turned out excellent. Chef Joy and the others in the class were delightful to be around. There was a lot of standing. I wish we had been able to at least sit down to eat the delicious food. Overall great experience.

This class was fun and educational for my daughter and her friend. They both learned some techniques and were given appropriate attention.

I enjoyed the class. The chef was really personable, knowledgeable and professional. He explained everything clearly. The food was great at the end.

Fun class!

I had the greatest time at my cooking class! The food was so good and the chef was fun and and taught many helpful hints during the class! I will be taking a cooking class again very soon!

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary with this cooking class and had so much fun! Would have been better with a little wine or champagne but it was great. We've already made a few of the dishes!!

This was a fun and wonderful class. The recipes were delicious . Chef Chris was a true professional chef. She gave little inside tips, was very good at explaining the recipes. I would take another class with Chef Chris!

Chef Tanya and Jake, the cooking instructors, were terrific! They not only shared valuable tips for cooking but also for prepping and cleaning the station. I was thrilled with the class and can't wait to sign up for another one. If you're interested, book your spot on a Saturday or Sunday.

What a great class. From the beginning with regard to explaining the different variations that we were going to make. Guiding us in the preparing of the ingredients and working with us in the cooking of the ingredients and how it all comes together . The end result the best getting to eat what we made. Delicious. Ready to register for my next class. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Taken many classes, this so far is the best, easy and delicious. chefs are so good and make it fun and easy!!

Our family of 3 (including a teen son) really enjoyed this class. The recipes were easy to figure out and make, and it's nice to have the book to refer to the 3 things we made, as well as all of the other content. Chef Kelley was very helpful, friendly, and encouraging with our son!

It was so much fun! Learned several techniques from Chef Miguel and the food was amazing. I believe the small class size helped. I would recommend this class.

Excellent class. Good food, great instruction.

This class was great! Very informative and lots of fun, the instructors were very helpful (and the food was delicious!). I highly recommend this class and look forward to taking another class soon.
