A fun and delicious activity! We visited Tastebuds Kitchen…read morein State College to participate in one of their adult BYOB cooking classes (we had gift certificates). We had no idea what to expect, but had so much fun we are still talking about our evening! We registered for the Indian cuisine course (Samosas, Tikki Masala, and naan bread) that took place from 6:00-8:00 on a Saturday evening. This is a fun, lighthearted, and more of a social activity than a hard-core cooking lesson, which we enjoyed. Upon entering the establishment, we were very pleased with the bright, colorful, and simplistic decorations/equipment. Everything was very clean and no extra clutter existed, which is what one would want in a food prep area. For this class there were 3 stainless steel tables (4 people per table) set up with stools, parallel to the demonstration area. We were given aprons to wear and introduced to our assigned station and group members (We had the best and most fun people at our table!). After everyone had arrived and introductions completed an overview of the course and food was presented. Efficiency is best to describe this course. While we were watching the demonstration for one component of the meal, the assistants were placing the necessary equipment and supplies to make that component at our table. After the demo of each course/food we returned to our stations and worked as a group to prepare/cook that item. After we completed an item the assistants would take them from the station to hold for later and we returned to the demo area for the next presentation (the assistants would also clean the area during this time). This process repeated for each menu item. I wish I had this type of set up while cooking at home! After the last item is prepared, the assistants bring each table place settings and then serve all the dishes we prepared family style. I loved the family style where we actually were able to sit and enjoy a full meal of all items we prepared throughout the event instead of just tasting pieces along the way. We had a great time and are looking forward to taking additional courses in the future. Yes, the cost is a bit steep $55pp, but for 2+ hours and a full meal etc, I would go again for a date night/group outing.

As we were walking towards the door they called to let us know our table was ready! The girls working were so helpful and couldn't ask for a cuter place. Great selection of fun items and layout. Easy to find accessories, cleaning station and tools. Lots of colors to pick from. Even better was the price! Worth it for sure. They even hold your items up to 6 months. So helpful if you don't live close. Will definitely be returning soon. Thanks for a fun Sunday!!

Cannot make a reservation if your party is under 4, which is idiotic, considering it is valentines weekend. We arrived and joined the waitlist, told it would be 30-45 mins. Went back 45 mins later, told it would be 15 more minutes. In total we waited 1.5 hours for 30 mins of painting. Overall the actual experience was great but it was a shit show getting in.

Ive had so many people come up to me during the dancing and after saying how good of a DJ he was and how they never saw so many people dance on a wedding dance floor for so long. Cant say enough good things about him honestly. Professional and curteous as well with anything we wanted to do as a couple like a "final dance" where he had to stay a bit longer than normal, was not a problem. I would hire him for any wedding if you want your guests to have a fantastic night.

We could not have had a better experience with Alex Nepa as our wedding DJ! We received so many…read morecompliments from guests that the music playlist was one of (if not THE) best that they've ever seen at a wedding! Alex had such cool transitions between songs and did an amazing job of gauging what would get the crowd going. Our dance floor was packed the entire night! As PSU alumni, we had mentioned that we wanted to enter the reception to a PSU song. Alex took that idea and ran with it - creating an AWESOME mashup of PSU fight songs and even included the lion's roar sound from the stadium! Our guests absolutely loved it. Throughout the entire planning process, Alex was extremely helpful and responsive. He uses a user-friendly website that includes a thorough questionnaire to understand our music preferences, must-play songs, and do-not play songs. Our guests also loved the photobooth that Alex provided. The photos turned out a little blurry, but I think that's just because of the neon sign that we chose to hang in the backdrop. He also brought such great energy to the wedding and was truly a joy to work with and have on the mic!
