I was looking for something fun to do with my mom when I was visiting her in Lake Oswego. The Thai cooking class at fuAsian turned out to be a great choice. I signed up for the three course Thai cooking class through their website (www.fuasiancatering.com). There was plenty of parking behind the building and there were six of us in the class on a Monday evening. I can't believe I learned to make three of my favorite thai dishes in one class. It is the perfect menu and I feel really confident that I can replicate the recipes at home. I learned so much about thai ingredients, which ones to buy, which ones to make from scratch, and some of those unique herbs, spices and vegetables that intrigue me in the grocery store. I am going to recommend this class to my family that lives in Portland and to my family that visit. Thank you to Thu Ha and best wishes on your new cafe hours. I think the Lake Oswego community will love your delicious food!

The Pad Thai made in our cooking class...yummers!

Our groupon for the Thai cooking class offered by fuAsian was set to expire in a few days, so last night we used it, and I was thrilled with the experience my husband and I had! The class was taught by the owner & main chef of the restaurant, who was FANTASTIC! We were told, however, that she doesn't usually teach the class anymore; instead it's taught by her main chef Randy, who had the night off because it was his birthday. We learned to make Salad Rolls, Tom Kha Soup, and Pad Thai, three very standard dishes found at every Thai restaurant. My husband and I LOVE Thai cuisine and frequent Thai restaurants often, as well as cook with Asian flavors at home, so my only concern going into the class was that it might be too basic for us. But while the dishes were basic, the instruction provided was extremely detailed, and the knowledge and passion the owner has for the ingredients (using fresh and local as often as possible and not taking shortcuts) and for cooking was inspiring. She also has over 20 years experience in the restaurant industry, so she was able to give much insight into the shortcuts many Thai/Asian restaurants take when it comes to the preparation of their dishes, and what dishes SHOULD and SHOULDN'T taste and look like. The class was hands-on, and she gave great instruction regarding her methods in preparing the food as well as discussing her favorite brands of ingredients to use. She also shared many great techniques that make a HUGE difference in the prep of these dishes. My hubby had never been able to quite get his salad rolls right before, and after last night's class, we couldn't believe how easy it really is! We now have some tricks up our sleeves. :) I could go on and on, but even without a Groupon discount, the class is definitely worth every penny!

I cannot recommend Thu Ha's cooking school enough--for beginners and for people who cook a lot, it's all there.

I've taken several classes here after being introduced through a Yelp Elite event. They had me at…read morestreet tacos! Chef Valentine is so nice and patient, the classes are fun, and at the end, you realize it's surprisingly easy to make good, healthy, affordable food that is delicious! I've taken the pork ramen class, which was my favorite. The broth, cooks in 30 minutes in an Instapot, and it was so rich and flavorful. I went out an Instapot the next day! We also made the noodles from scratch. It took a lot of kneeding to get the texture where it needed to be, but it was worth it! I haven't made the noodles at home yet because it took two of us to manage the pasta sheets and pasta machine, which I don't have. But someday! Also enjoyed the class where we learned how to make Saag Paneer, one of my favorite Indian dishes. Once you learn the technique, you can substitute chicken or lamb for the paneer. Quick, delicious, and far less money than if buying out. What makes these cooking classes so enjoyable is the ease and comfort of the atmosphere, created by Chef Valentine, and the ability to get to know the other people in the class. You all prep and cook together and then share the meal as a community. You can bring beer, wine or hard cider - and if you forget, go downstairs and buy some! People tend to share what they bring which adds to the sense of community. Chef Valentine has taught me knife skills, which I thought I had! Wrong. I was doing all the work and not letting the knife do it's job. It's all about the tools and using them properly. These classes have also taught me patience. Cutting all the veggies for the ramen takes time, skill and patience to get uniformed cuts. Prepping and measuring first makes the actual cooking process go smoother. I've always been a cook, but never much of a baker because baking is about being precise with measurements, which requires patience. After taking several cooking classes at Feed the Mass, I've learned how patience pays off. This Christmas, I baked about a dozen varieties of cookies, including baklava. They all turned out wonderful, according to my friends who gobbled them up and I owe it to Chef Valentine! Classes are located on the second floor of Whole Foods in the Pearl. You can park on the street or in Whole Foods garage. If you spent $10 on groceries, parking is free. Love taking classes here! I bought a book of 5 passes so classes end up being $25 per class, a bargain since you also eat a meal! What I really like is the mission of a Feed the Mass, which is to educate and provide classes to those who can't afford to pay for classes, to teach them how to make a healthy and affordable meals for their family. A meal that costs less than fast food and is far more delicious. And healthier. Taking classes supports this Non-Profit's mission. There are classes for kids, date nights, family classes and even classes where you learn how to prep a few meals that stretch out for a week. So take some classes and learn new skills, have fun and pay it forward! It's a great experience and a fun way to spend an evening with friends, family or as a single...once you walk in the door, you are part of the community.

I took the ramen class taught by Chef Jacobsen Valentine at a private event. As a casual home cook,…read moreI thought it was awesome. No matter your skill level (unless, maybe, if you're already a professional chef), you'll learn something new. We made ramen noodles from scratch (!), which were an amazing consistency and soaked up the flavor of the broth well. We also learned proper knife techniques. Chef Valentine has a real passion for cooking and teaching others this important life skill as a means to a healthier lifestyle. A portion of class fees goes towards scholarships for classes for those in need. On the down side, this may have ruined me for instant and non-housemade restaurant ramen, as ours was so good! Now I'll really be saying, I could/should have made this at home!
