    Pot of gold cocktail

    Took an Irish cocktail class. What a fun class! Plan on coming back soon! Highly recommended!

    Chicken verde with homemade Tortillas and pepita Caesar

    Looking for a fun food experience... try Pans on Fire in Pleasanton!! It's a cooking school with an amazing culinary shop as well! Use top of the line equipment while making a killer meal! We made chicken verde with a pepita Caesar salad and homemade flour tortillas. For dessert- homemade Ice cream with Mexican chocolate sauce. Then instructors were ao nice and the revipes easy! I will definitelyły make this one at home- even easy enough for a weeknight meal.

    We had a fabulous time at the American Steakhouse cooking class! Can't wait to go back for another class. Thank you, Chef Bruce and Chef Laura!

    This is a student at Pans on Fire Sourdough  bread making class. A happy student!!!

    I love the details Laura went through from start to finish in under 2 hours. Sourdough bread is an art form and takes some patience. Laura made it look easy!!

    Everything we made !!!

    Wow. So much food and fun!!! Amazing when a few simple ingredient and some instructions can be a meal. Now add you can do this at home and amazing your friends and family. This Tapas class was the bomb!!!! Having done a few others. The tapas class was awesome! So much food and sneak in some wine in the wait times .... Oh yeah and the almond cake was the first time I have ever loved a dessert that had no chocolate !!! Amazing date night ! So glad Valentine's Day was delayed due to the flu!!!!!

    See all

    We dropped into Zwilling to check out their housewares after visiting the Le Creuset outlet…read more Just to clarify this space is absolutely not child friendly, there are a ton of open knives in the back lower clearance section that are easily accessible, so I wouldn't bring anyone under 10 into the shop. The service was friendly and helpful and we were able to choose a few items for the house. I will say they heavily lean Staub and I was very tempted by several of their bowls, but they only had 2-3 colors (red, blue, yellow) so none of them fit our color scheme. All in all, we would definitely return and it would likely be a gold mine for those who prefer Staub in the primary color palette.

As a young kid I saw just how important a decent oven pan is - it was a perfect experiment - a large batch of cinnamon rolls divided between a heavy pot and a cheap one. The cheap pot yielded flat rolls with burned bottoms and the expensive heavy one created these materpiece baked goods 2x the size as the others. When you walk into a store like this you might be shocked to find a pan that is 10x the price of the cheap junk you normally buy - but let me tell you - if you bake often it is worth it. A tiny little pound cake form - how much could it be? Sit down for sticker shock at first but then realize everything is marked down lots less bc its an outlet. Store help was great. Helped me choose a color - partly based on having something that wasn't going to be phased out soon. Great shopping experience and products.

They did not have them but had silicone ones in white which were fine. She rang me up and I was off my way. I never have a bad experience shopping at Le Creuset!

I really can't say enough about these folks, they were so awesome.

I…read moreoriginally planned to reface our old cabinets or do IKEA cabinets with updated fronts from companies like Semihandmade, but ultimately found Bay Area Cabinet Supply to make more sense in terms of pricing, quality and time investment during the planning and design process. I walked through Bay Area Cab's Dublin showroom a few times to confirm they have cabinet styles and colors I liked, and the employees were very accommodating in letting me check out cabinet door samples to see in my actual kitchen. I'm so glad I did that, because the color we originally wanted ended up looking dingy in our northern facing kitchen. We went with their Icy Avalanche color, which is a cool toned grey, and have never loved anything more! The design and estimate process was simple and likely less time consuming than even wading through the IKEA kitchen designer yourself. Chrissy was patient, professional and very knowledgeable and made sure every detail was handled to perfection. She even hopped on the phone with our contractor a couple times to make sure every measurement was exactly correct. But her excellent customer service really came into play after our cabinets were delivered and we discovered an issue--due to a slant in our kitchen floors that weren't accounted for in our original measurements, our crown molding wouldn't fit! She and her sister, who heads their other branch, redesigned and supplied a new molding quickly so that our remodel wouldn't be too behind schedule. And if that wasn't enough, when my contractor mis-installed a drawer, Chrissy replaced the broken pieces for me immediately. For just the customer service level alone, I'm so glad I went with Bay Area Cabs. There are already so many small things that can go wrong in a kitchen remodel, and I was so glad to have the cabinets be headache-free! Finally, the quality of the cabinets is amazing. We've been in our new kitchen for about 6 months now and are happy to report that all our cabinets, drawers, shelves and doors are working perfectly. We're so happy we chose Bay Area Cab Supply for our kitchen and hope this review helps more people find out about this awesome family-owned company!

    Kitchen remodelling is one of the most intricate and very detailed oriented task to tackle. It is…read morethe heart of the house. Being said and before you decide to do kitchen remodelling, make sure you have the time to work closely with your contractor! I worked closely with KF from the design to execution throughout the completion of the project. Let me share my experience with KF in details. Working with their sales rep was a smooth process. We worked with Dean through the selection of cabinets, floors, countertops, sink and faucet. Then here comes the selection of appliances. We shopped around and selected the appliances we will put in our kitchen and then gave the details to KF to incorporate it into the layout of the kitchen. A layout and a 3D model was made for review to visually see how the new layout of the kitchen will look like. This is where the critical part of the work needing your attention. Make sure to check the clearances provided for the appliances are all correct. The designer did not check the size of stove we will use. Mistake was made to our layout. We didn't catch the mistake as well and drawings got released for final approval. Then the execution, demolition to our kitchen took place as scheduled. 2 guys came in to remove all the old cabinets, countertops and appliances. It was a 3 day process to demolish and clear the debris. Prepare the walls for new construction. The electrical work. One electrician started to put new outlets and upgrade our electrical sub panel. This is where it got tricky because the new location of our panel is still part of the walk-in closet. The city inspector pointed out it is against the building code to relocate an electrical panel from a closet to a walk-in closet. The good thing was I was able to divide the walk-in closet into two rooms. I contructed a wall to divide this room into a storage where the new electrical panel is located and a separate walk-in closet. I did this work myself because it was not part of the contract. It will be an additional cost if I have KF do this work! The intallation of the cabinets! This is where we discovered the layout was incorrect. The clearance made for the stove is 36 inches, we ordered 30 inches stove. The location of the cabinet for the garbage was wrong too. KF ended up replacing 5 cabinets at their own expense to correct the layout. Make sure that during this process you check every position and clearances for your appliances are correct. This your final check before countertop measurement! The measurement of countertops and backsplash. A guy came in to make a template for the countertop and backsplash for fabrication. The process is to measure and install countertop first and then measure and install the backsplash. Make sure to check the level and squareness of the backsplash and countertop. I checked the backsplash and it was out of square. I have them corrected it on the spot! This is a very critical process and very expensive to correct if installed incorrectly. The installation of new flooring. I picked LVF to replace our carpet and hardwood. There is only one type of floor we use for the entire house. This went very smoothly and efficient. The worker even show up on Saturday to do the work. He knows how inconvenient for the owner is to move things around to clear the areas to install new flooring. Kudos to this worker who did our floor. The installation of appliances. It went smoothly except the anti tipping bracket of the stove was not properly place to capture one foot of the range. I went back and forth with the installer to correct it but I ended up correcting it myself to get approval from the city. The final touches. Ensure you are there and inspect every square inch of the cabinets and walls. You have to point out to the workers to put caulking on every holes you see. KF workers were not very thorough on their final touches. The final inspection. This is where the city will come in to inspect the electrical work, the wall I constructed, the undersink cabinets and do some testing on new circuits of the kitchen. Check and check their work. If you are not satisfied with their work. Make them correct it. This is your only time to tell them to correct things you are not satisfied. For example I have them replaced the valve of the faucet where one of the hoses has tight bend. Check fittings for leaks. This is very important! As I elaborated above, KF has the means to do the work. The coordination with their project manager was not very proactive. You need to make many follow ups to get the work done. Some days have no work activities. A couple of days they worked upto 8 in the evening! Overall I am happy with the result of their work but I also spent many hours to work with them. At the end of the day, it is you who will live in the house and it's your kitchen! When it comes to cost and the hours I spent working with them, the overall cost of this project was expensive.

This store pretty much has all their vanities on display so you can see the different wood finishes and size options, which ones come with a sink and which ones have a separate sink. The prices are great compared to other custom vanity places. The store is huge and seems overwhelming. They carry a lot of products for your kitchen, bathroom and other rooms in your home.
