I'd gone to a Chef Upstairs event a few years ago, and always kept them in mind as it was a great…read moreexperience. They offer various services and events, and I recalled as well that they also do kids camps. Over the past couple years, my daughter has taken a big interest in cooking. And not just a fleeting interest, but consistently enjoys watching cooking shows and wanting to participate in cooking at home. As we were planning summer camps this year, I thought we should try to finally give her a chance to live her dream a bit and attend a week here. She's gone to a city-run one before. Though she quite enjoyed it, it was fairly simple. At The Chef Upstairs, they are in a full commercial kitchen with gas stoves, deep fryers and a whole bunch of other things you'd expect from a real kitchen. They have a firm belief that kids can learn safely - in fact, the safest thing is to expose them and provide proper technique. And they're not just making things like a deli meat roll up wrap, but full-on multi-course meals (they make breakfast and lunch) and from recipes from all around the world. You should look at the menus they post on their site for the kids camps. It was a bit of a sacrifice for us as we do not live nearby. That said, they have two locations, so a number of people are well-situated if near Vaughan and midtown Toronto. It's also a bit more money than many other kids camps - though its apparent with the food costs and the high staffing ratio that it's still good value. Ultimately, it was well worth it. My daughter loved it and truly lived out a dream and learned a lot. The highlight for her was the week long prep leading up to the Iron Chef-esque competition where they planned their own full menu. I'm thrilled that The Chef Upstairs lived up and even exceeded our already high expectations and truly made a lifetime memory for our daughter.

Right away, we went to the wall to see what ceramics we could pick from and then Alex filled us in on where everything is and what steps to take. Overall, you have about 90min to pick a ceramic and paint it. They had a great selection of paints, brushes and other tools to choose from. Alex was so kind, patient & helpful throughout our whole experience. My whole family enjoyed our experience, and my mom really enjoyed the added personal touch of one of the staff members giving out roses to all the moms. I would definitely come back!

Pino took such meticulous care in preparing our meal it was absolutely beautiful to watch him, each dish was a work of art, a work of pride. Pino encouraged us to ask questions and he showed us his tips with such a generous spirit, to say he made our meals would be a terrible injustice and understatement, he created a beautiful atmosphere and he made our night. Pino came into our home fully prepared - a true professional. Every dish was bursting with flavour, timely and beautifully presented and when he left, he left our kitchen spotless - like he was never even here. Magic. I definitely recommend Pino to anyone wanting a great experience with a personal chef, I guarantee you will taste the love in every dish.

The actors & actresses are the ingredients. The script is the conversation and the educational facts Chef Eyal & Rebecca teaches you during the dinner.

Chef Eyal and Rebecca will continuously educate you interesting fun facts about food & wines during the dinner. Like do you know that almond is act a fruit not a nut?! How interesting is that ! I have to admit... I never had frog before and was kind of scared of trying it... But it turned out to be really good actually . And... Wow I'm in love with the 8 year old steer tenderloin . As for the wine, though I enjoy wine and stuff, but I personally love the grape Gewürztraminer, always have a good experience with it and my eyes sparkled when I saw that bottle . There are also a few grapes I do like.
