My kids have attended Chef Tech's summer camps for the last two summers and I couldn't recommend…read morethem more highly! They are able to manage a large group of kids in a very organized manner and are excellent and patient teachers. Each and every time that I pick them up I'm shocked by how much they were able to make in the two and a half hours that they were there. They are currently in the Italian week camp and have made homemade pizzas, pastas and sauces from scratch, flatbreads, salads, sorbet, cookies, etc. My kids are 9 (twins), but we also brought friends this summer. One is in his last year of middle school and enjoyed the class just as much as the younger kids. Truly, such a wonderful experience for them! Thank you so much, Chef Tech!

I've never baked a single thing in my life, but by the end of Teri's walk-through (and with lots of friendly guidance), I had a beautiful 4 tier cake to leave with. My husband was absolutely flabbergasted that I'd baked and I was shocked that it was actually delicious. He's eaten a piece daily since and can't stop talking about how good it is-meanwhile I can't stop talking about how much fun I actually had with Teri. She shared the recipe so I can make it going forward and I think I can actually pull it off thanks to the education I got at Chef Tech!

Pasta Mark recently joined a food app called "Too good to Go". First test was a lunch offering…read morewhich had rigatoni pasta with a nice vodka sauce and spicy sausage, handmade focaccia bread (that was so delicious) and a salad for $4.99. Since lunch was so tasty, I decided to order a dinner. Dinner consisted of, HANDMADE PASTA: Rigatoni. Spicy sausage and Parmesan cheese. Handmade focaccia bread with Italian herbs and balsamic. APPETIZER: Farmers market salad DESSERT: TIRAMISU! For $8.99 To pick up, you go to Partake Collective and a person collects the items and puts them in a bag for you to take home. Well DINNER WAS A DISASTER! There was no Spicy Italian Sausage rigatoni, no bread, no tiramisu. The guy was trying to send me off with whatever he had from Pasta Mark. That's when I had to cancel my order. They also raised their lunch pricing from $4.99 to $6.99. So in the end, lunch was great. Dinner, very disappointing! Suggestion: maybe create the bags with the purposed food instead of having Partake trying to give just any food to your clients.

LBCC Bistro is the test kitchen for students enrolled in the culinary program. Reservations…read morerequired via the OpenTable app. For an even $20, guests are provided a 3 course fixed menu. 3 appetizer options, 3 entree options, and 3 dessert options. With rotating cuisines, this particular week catered to Italian fare. My choices were the shrimp bruschetta, poached sole & panna cotta. Shrimp bruschetta- A large shrimp on top of bruschetta, placed squarely in a plate of fennel broth. The broth was an interesting take, as the bruschetta soaked it up & became slightly mushy/slightly crusty. Poached sole- A large fillet of sole, paired with carrots, asparagus and fennel. I could taste the sole was previously frozen, as I've caught & cooked sole, which is a fatty & flavorful fish. The fillet could've used more sauce. Panna cotta- A winner! The pulled sugar was fun to eat, providing a contrast in texture to the creamy panna cotta. Service was excellent. Located at Building V, parking is $2/all day at the adjacent structure on Clark & Carson. For a fair amount of a jaunt, free parking can be had at LBX. Wanna feel like a judge on Hell's Kitchen? Dining at LBCC Bistro is a great way to experience being a gourmet guinea pig. I look forward to booking again, soon.

We all.loved our meals and the exceptional service! We were served New Potato Salad, Yougurt Chicken or Garden Pasta, and Apple Tartin for dessert! All dishes were so tasty and elegantly prepared. The New Potato Salad was amazing! I definitely could have eaten an entire bowl it was so good! I love that the menu included the names of the students preparing (by dish) in the kitchen and serving in the dining area! Reservations are required! No walk-ins. Reservations are available thru Open Table 3 weeks out. They are only open for lunch, Tuesdays and Wednesdays for about 10 weeks each semester. Reservations book up fast and strongly suggest to keep checking if at first you don't see an opening. Definitely an underrated local gem in Long Beach!

Thought we were ordering from Thai Kitchen and when got to their location, was directed to this…read moreaddress. Thai food not good. 1. Drunken noodles great deal on the bogo but our party didn't want spice so ordered level "0". Came too spicy for most to eat. 2. Thai basil chicken lacked flavor, chicken dry and went into trash. 3. Pot stickers were ok but not homemade tasting. Ended up ordering sandwiches for everyone.

I'm gonna be frank and to the point…read more The Cave is the spot to eat from. Thai District tried their hand at Ramen and are under "Ramen district." You can't find a separate location for them so Partake is gonna get this. Thai restaurants/cooks have no hand at making ramen. The chashu is thick and chewy - not melt in your mouth good. The "seasoned egg" is seasoned in pure soy sauce. It's not soft-boiled. The soy sauce of it completely throws the spicy tonkotsu off. Then comes the butcher string, that should not have left the back of house. They offered a whole new bowl but I'm kinda turned off 'cause this was supposed to be my comfort meal to help with me grieving my bunny and it was just all a miss. =/ We have better ramen nearby. Please find it.
