My wife and I had a great time. We learned a few new tricks, had a great meal and face to face conversation with complete strangers. I was worried at first thinking that entering someone's house for a cooking class would be awkward. But it felt very relaxed and welcoming in Chef Washington's home. We will definitely be doing this again.
