Even after the 1st day my meals at home were suddenly consistent and significantly better. 12 weeks later and I am confidently relaxed in my kitchen. I enjoy the ease that I feel now; from preparing dinner, menu planning, temp control, and little tips you just can't learn on google. Learning in person from Chef Jason and Chef Ben with a group of funny, eager, and caring adults has really shaped how I can give back to my family. This was the common denominator for all the students in our course. We wanted to learn a new skill to share with the ones we care about most, our families. "I haven't made a sh**** meal since day one of this course" - quote from my fiancé Take the leap and invest in yourself and your family plus laughing about it along the way is always a plus.

I am a home cook that wanted to deeper dive into cooking and to learn some new skills. I had a…read moregreat experience in the beginner cooking class at Culinary lab. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The class covered all the bases of what you could learn in a beginners cooking class. From potion, to fish, to veggies, to knifes skills it is a good balance. The pace was not too fast but not too slow. We would learn about a subject, watch the chef cook it and then do it ourselves. I really liked my chef instructor explained things thoroughly but not overly controlling. One of the best parts is you got to take your a recipe sheet home with everything you learned that day and the food that you made, my husband and my kids always loved that. Over all it was a great experience and I will be back for more classes!

Sarah was entertaining, warm, welcoming, encouraging and a great instructor. Made the class so much fun and my grandson couldn't not stop talking about how much he learned in a 2 hour class. The school itself is small but neat, clean and vibrant. Everyone participated in making the meal and sitting down together to enjoy it. I generally do not enjoy classes that are structured like this, but in this case, everyone was able to participate in all aspects and all portions of each dish if they wanted. My previous experience has been that each team makes one part of the meal and it gets assembled at the end prior to eating. I always felt I was not getting a full experience that way. This was structured differently and it absolutely made the experience so much more enjoyable. I would not hesitate to recommend them or to take another class there. Thank you again Sarah for making this such a great experience.

If you're intimidated about making a sourdough starter or sourdough bread, then you need to take…read morethis class. Taleen simplifies the entire process so it feels totally doable. We actually made our own starter and mixed up a loaf to take home and bake the next day. She demonstrates each step clearly and then has everyone follow along, so you never feel lost. She also provides all the tools and ingredients, which makes it easy to just show up and learn. The class is relaxed, informative, and perfect for beginners. I highly recommend for anyone who's been wanting to try sourdough but might feel overwhelmed by "feeding" your starter; Taleen has a simple process for this to allow us time to get used to the art of making sourdough. I'm so glad I took this class, I left with the confidence and knowledge to take care of my starter and continue to make my own sourdough at home.

The instructor goes over everything on screen so you can watch before you move forward with each step. I always think its going to be hard but honestly its just so fun and who cares if your cookies turn out perfect or not. Mine never do but I am always impressed with how well I actually do. Classes are $50 per person and are worth the memories you make. Plus the cookies are SO good!

I had joined her awhile back and despite having difficulties of my own, I had fun and the cookies are delicious. After the first experience I have returned on numerous other occasions and do feel I have progressed a bit with my decorating skills but all in all its about the fun. The cookies are always well themed and we enjoy eating these for several days afterward. It really doesn't matter what the end product looks like as long as you have fun creating your masterpiece. As Frank on Everybody Loves Raymond would say, the stomach knows not ugly and these are delicious no matter the result. I will definitely return again soon for more of these classes and highly recommend checking them out for something different, fun and challenging

There's an option to purchase wine, and while the selection is limited, it's clearly curated and high quality. The Tuscan menu was simple yet absolutely delicious. My only minor critique is that I wish the class had been a bit more hands-on--the instructor occasionally took over rather than letting participants do more themselves. That said, I understand time constraints and how challenging it can be with a large group. I imagine this experience would be even better in a more intimate setting. Overall, the food was excellent, and the instructors and staff were fun, friendly, and engaging. It is on the pricier side, but you're essentially getting a three-course meal, plus a 10% discount on anything in the store the day of the class, which is a nice bonus.
