Ms. Farhat has the patience of a saint and an incredibly warm and nurturing approach to working with the children. We enjoyed making apple crisp in the first of a series of classes focused on the ABC's which included preparing and mixing ingredients, sampling different kinds of apples and charting individual taste preferences, using crayons to draw their favorite apple on a copy of the recipe to take home and finally story time with a book that tied into the theme while waiting for the apple crisp to bake. The children were all kindly asked to wash their hands prior to handling any ingredients and were kept incredibly safe with activities designed to keep them away from the oven and used kid friendly kitchen tools in preparation of ingredients. I highly recommend registering your child for an upcoming cooking adventure at Mixitup-Kitchen and bring the joy of cooking to your children!

The Italian diva was full of life, stories, education, and wisdom with cooking and ingredients. Initially, I thought to myself "ugh I wish we had an option to do another class besides pizza", but she was right when she told me "you have never tried pizza like this" and it was some of the best pizza I have ever had. I learned how to make pizza easily at home. Overall, it was the best night with great company. We laughed all night. We made friends. We enjoyed the entire experience.

This review is for the pizza making class…read more IT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY. I bought two tickets for my mom and I to attend as a Christmas present and we both LOVED it. To start, the test kitchen is to the back of the chefs house, in a brand new, renovated barn. There is a very spacious driveway for parking. The kitchen is absolutely beautiful and super clean. There is an upstairs loft area with an incredible bathroom. It is literally picture perfect. The two chefs who run it are very friendly and personable. They start you off with beer, white or red wine and are clearly from the restaurant industry, because they never let you go empty. They also start off with a sampling of a calzone which was delicious...you will not leave here hungry! Then, it's to business. You learn about the dough making process and recommended ingredients. Their dough must sit for 3 days, so you make dough and they store it for you to take home and you can use when it's ready in 3 days or you can freeze it for 30-60 days and use it later. You are already set up to make your first pizza at home! Then, they give you dough that is ready to use, and you start pizza making! And get this, you make TWO pizzas. I was initially nervous, I am not a cook and I've never made pizza at home, but they made it so easy and are always there to lend a helping hand. The first pizza was simple: tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella and basil. The second pizza, they gave you an array of meat and veggie toppings to make it your own. The pizzas were DELICIOUS. The best homemade pizza I've ever eaten, and I would go as far to say, you may never have to eat out again! You could eat it right then and there, hot out of the oven. The leftovers were boxed up for you and you take it home. At the end, they also had a sampling of steak. Melt in your mouth. Absolutely fantastic. You also get info on their baking steel products which include the mini or full griddle, and why they are the best for pizza making (and steak making). My mom ended up buying the mini griddle and she can't wait to use it. The cost for the night was $75 and we were there for about 2-2.5 hours. I also learned they have a pizza demo class/ wine tasting for pairing with different pizzas. They basically cook for you and you eat and drink! It is less frequent than the pizza making class but can be found in their online calendar. It's also cheaper at only $59. I would absolutely give that class a try. With that being said I would also totally do the pizza making class again with my boyfriend because I know he would love it too. Overall it's a really fun night out. It's a great gift idea too. My class was about 9 people which was perfect; not too big. It would be great if you could get a bunch of friends together for it. You won't be disappointed!

They thought of everything! There were even some snacks (cheese, meats, and focaccia) to start and the water and soft drinks were free. It was set for 5 couples but one didn't show. My husband didn't know anyone before hand but quickly chatted and talked em with everyone. The pace of everything was great. We made dessert first. Then we made the salad with from scratch burrata cheese, marry me chicken and homemade fresh pasta. It was truly the best experience. The dessert was a layered red velvet cup with mascarpone cheese. It was heaven! The class was hands on and the staff were all so friendly. The space was clean and welcoming. Two bathrooms were inside the kitchen area. The menu can change per class so be sure to book what you like best. They offer a variety of classes and is not just for couples if you do the classic cooking class. Worth the price, hands down. So glad we came here and got to experience this. We will be back for sure!

We got demos for everything that wasn't made by us but enjoyed the foods that our chef chose for us to make, such as the burrata!

Not only was the food beyond exceptional but Erynn is on-time, responsive, calm, and, while friendly, is a tough cookie.

And her price structure is beyond reasonable. There were some issues but they were more the fault of my planning. But you live and learn. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend South End Chef and I hope I have reason to hire Erynn again. Her onion tarts are going on my Top 10 list of "Best Things I Have Ever Put In My Mouth".
