WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Houston

Amazing experience Chef Christmas was great, I learned a lot, and the food was amazing
02/04/2025
The chef was very nice and attentive and answered all of our questions. Understand that there is not a ton of time but I would have liked to have seen some of the prep work (at least an overview). For example, we made gnocchi but did not learn how to prepare the potatoes (we were just given them ready to go) and returned from break with them cooked and in the sauce. Would have liked at least a quick overview of the steps: cooking gnocchi, ricing the potatoes... and any little tips for those steps.
Other than, it was a great experience and looking forward to my next class!

Chef Stephanie was fantastic. My daughters and I had a wonderful time, while learning new cooking techniques. I immediately came home and personally was able to put my education to work, making crepes and new sauces. My husband has a salt allergy so I was able to apply her teaching to my limitations on salt at home. The crepes have been a huge success for dinners, lunch, & breakfast. I even smoked my own fresh salmon tonight for crepes.

It was fantastic. I booked this event as a surprise for my wife who has been attempting to make the Macarons and not achieving the results she was happy with. We learned so much and really enjoyed how helpful Chef Stephanie was. She made leaning fun and gave us many pro tips we can use going forward. I scored many points with my wife, and we look forward to taking another class soon. Maybe how to make croissants?!Â
