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!

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!

This was such a fun experience. I attended the Tuscan cooking class, and although it was pretty…read morefull, we ended up making some new friends along the way. 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.

We cannot say enough incredible things about Pasta Mark. During one of the hardest times for our…read morefamily -- planning a celebration of life -- he stepped in and truly went above and beyond. Mark didn't just cater a meal... he created a completely custom pasta experience that felt personal, thoughtful, and made with genuine care. From the initial conversation, he listened closely to what we envisioned and added special touches that honored our loved one in such a meaningful way. The menu felt intentional, the flavors were absolutely delicious, and everything was prepared beautifully. More than the food (which our guests are still talking about!), it was Mark's heart and professionalism that stood out. He made the entire process seamless and stress-free, allowing our family to focus on being together and remembering someone very special. If you are looking for someone who brings not only culinary talent but compassion and personalization to your event, Pasta Mark is truly exceptional. We are so grateful for the care he poured into making the day as special as it could possibly be.

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.

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.

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.
