Grabbing another person's hand without permission is so wrong. Also, talking down to your students. Telling them " how long have you been here" all because of a simple spelling mistake.

This is a great place to learn and grow.

She was definitely older than 90 years old when I took her first but unfortunately, last class! I honestly wished I had known about it sooner! Your fees literally paid for dinners that you make with others.) As a foodie, I loved the "eat what you cook" with others aspect of this and many other culinary classes. I also love Miss Kathy Campbell's class. She is so sweet and honest and loving. Reminds me of a mom I wished I've always had! Great classes for a phenomenal fee. This place is a diamond in the rough!

What a fun evening doing a private Taste of Little Italy food walking tour with Adriana! We had…read moresuch a wonderful time learning the history of Little Italy and enjoying the food from 4 different places. Highly recommend doing it with your out of town guests or with your foodie friends. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/349327055627 We took our time and never felt rushed. Food was amazing! I've lived here for over 20 years and never knew much about the history of Little Italy. Adriana was such a fun guide and I already can't wait to go again!

My husband received a tour of the store while going over different grills and accessories on the first visit. On the second visit, we purchased and my daughter and I got to play with their dog. He is such a sweetheart! It's a family business which of course I prefer supporting over large stores. We haven't put the grill together yet. Hopefully this week and I will add pics. Definitely recommend!

Attended 3 different classes so far with more on the calendar. First class was sushi, 2nd class was fresh mozzarella and ricotta cheese, and then today it was Ramen. Really enjoyed the hands-on approach and how Chef Scott explains the science behind cooking things a particular way. He has fancy new sharp knives to make the food prep a cinch. Each 2 person group has their own cooking stations and each person gets to participate at every step of the way. Love making items from scratch as it really makes things taste so delicious and you know what goes into every dish without the harsh chemicals, and artificial ingredients. Highly recommend this class to anyone that wants to have a fun date night and to try something new. Chef Scott is very entertaining and really makes sure everyone has a great time!

Their team hosted an evening delight featuring Swedish meatballs, an assortment of small bites, beautifully arranged charcuterie boards, wine, and a variety of appetizers -- all of which were a huge hit with our residents. The food was fresh, flavorful, and presented with great attention to detail. Even more impressive was their team's professionalism, hospitality, and seamless execution throughout the event. They were engaging, organized, and made the entire evening feel elevated and effortless on our end. Our residents had nothing but positive feedback, and the event created exactly the warm, social atmosphere we were hoping for. We highly recommend Big City Chefs for any community or private event and look forward to partnering with them again in the future.

The teachers and director were always available to answer questions and provided my children with quality education. I felt like my son and daughter gained a 360 knowledge of each subject.

The teachers always greeted us with a smile and a fully detailed report of the day! I highly recommend this school!

Brad is absolutely incredible. We hired him last minute for our pandemic NYE dinner and he did an…read moreincredible job. Brad was kind enough to get a COVID test prior to the event in an effort to be as safe as possible. First he got a false positive on a rapid test, he was extremely honest and forthcoming with the information- even tried to suggest other chefs. However, thankfully, his PCR came back negative and we were able to have his delicious food after all! The food was absolutely incredible and he even shared a recipe with us so we could make it again. I would 1000% hire Brad again! PS the image below was just the starter! I tried to take photos of every course but epically failed because when I finally remembered, the food was already devoured.

The quote request included what types of food we were looking for and a desired price range. Chef Brad's menu hit home with us and he was very responsive. We messaged back-and-forth without any delay to iron out any questions. His communication skills and attention to detail ensured confidence that we were talking to the correct chef hire for our birthday celebration. He arrived on time and ready to cook. Chef Brad provided elegant dining ware, cook ware, and was able to engage in conversation while he cooked. My wife had many questions regarding technique, knife types, and preparation for cooking that he answered diligently. The food, the FOOD, was amazing. The flavor complimented the portion size and the presentation was artistic. Afterwards, he cleaned and left no trace (beyond some Wagyu beef , and some of the deconstructed s'mores). We highly recommend Chef Brad Banan for any event.
