    Making some magic in the kitchen
    Haley M.

    I've worked in plenty of kitchens over the past ten years of my life. From quickservice to fine dining, home kitchens, and industrial bottling facilities.....nothing has compared to the experience of working in Crafted Kitchen's shared kitchen. The most impressive thing about this place isn't the sheer massive amount of space that is hidden behind a brick wall in DTLA. It isn't the ridiculous amount of new and well kept equipment that was available to me. It isn't that somehow, even though somebody is almost always cooking (or baking or prepping)24/7, this facility is still the most immaculate I have ever been in. The most impressive thing to me was the huge community of other tiny businesses that came together under one roof. No matter how close I came to missing catering delivery deadlines, or realized I didn't have a crucial ingredient, or wanted to trash a recipe because one customer didn't like it...there was always someone else to push me to the finish line, swoop in and give me some onions, or tell me that maybe that customer wouldn't know good food if it bit them (or why they might be right!). The companies that I worked alongside became trusted colleagues and friends. We all shared that unspoken kitchen bond. Running the culinary side for a tiny, brand new, independent catering company in LA is more than a bit daunting. Crafted Kitchen was the place that made everything possible and made everything easier. The amount of work that Cindi (the owner) puts into Crafted Kitchen is mind boggling. I have seen her get up to the roof with a technician like she's spider woman. She has climbed ladders to help me reset a ceiling outlet. She has helped me find the equipment I needed because I was too frazzled to realize that the blender was right in front of my face. She has layed in puddles of dish water to stop a leak. She has given me some of the best advice that a young woman needs to hear...about staffing, marketing, self-evaluating, and most importantly knowing that you are just as worthy and strong and experienced as any of your counterparts in this business. And I literally never saw Cindi not somewhere at Crafted, whether it was 8am, 6pm, or 2am. She's a real superwoman. Oh! And let me tell you one more thing. THE KITCHENS ARE AIR CONDITIONED! You heard me right. As somebody who has been stuck on the grill when it's 100+ outside and the air blowing in is just as hot as the fire in front of you having air conditioning in the kitchen was the ultimate luxury. Thank you Crafted! For this and so much more.

    See all

    Experience: very well run institution with ample space and tools. Offered classes are broad in…read morevariety and very accommodating for beginners. Teaching: classes are structured and run on time. Teachers are fantastic and patient, especially with new students. Most of the classes are paired off in groups which means individual instruction and supervision is minimal so unless you're looking for something more formal with extremely tailored feedback, a private session is likely better versus a group setting. Other Comments: this was likely a one-off incident, but at a class I attended. I was disappointed with the assistant (Stephanie). As the class was winding down and desserts were being handed, for some reason, she served herself and ate before completing distribution so there were several attendees who didn't receive their desserts (which they paid for!). It was bizarre and unprofessional, which was weird given that she had been helpful and attentive throughout the class so I don't know what happened. She also seemed not to have budgeted well and hadn't purchased enough ingredients, especially for the dessert, which may be another reason for why we ran out so fast at this particular class.
