I signed up for what I thought was going to be a cooking class, it was more like a culinary…read moreexperience! There were so many ingredients that I have never used in my cooking, and some that were completely unfamiliar to me. The group of students divided into stations to create and then enjoy 4 different soups. While Chef Cass provided some instruction, most of the experience was actually in digging in and preparing the dishes. The atmosphere was exciting and collaborative with each group working together and checking out the progress of the other groups (and helping with the tasting of course). Chef Cass expertly provided tips and hints for each recipe while more than a dozen of us dug around the full chef's kitchen to gather ingredients and tools. So much fun and I learned a lot in 3 hours. I highly recommend these classes as a fun date night, friend's adventure, or individual experience!

We attended her fajita class on Cinco de Mayo and learned how to make pineapple and aleppo pepper sorbet, marinated steak/chicken/veggies, flour tortillas and guacamole. The food was outstanding, Deb was a thorough teacher and the crowd was lovely (and encouraged to interact). Even if you live in downtown Des Moines, it's worth the drive! Deb, a former restaurant professional, says veggie-based dishes are her specialty, so we're looking forward to attending again for one of her salad or spiralized vegetable classes. Plan for about 2 or 2 1/2 hours per event.

There is a placeholder you pay when you sign up. I completely get that as it sold out quickly. The evening of the event, we brought our drinks and headed to get settled in. Greeted warmly by everyone in the shop. The entire work staff was in a chipper fun mood. We got to select the item that we wanted to glaze. We were given clear instructions on what to do. The room was full of excited adults all there to have some fun. The staff was around to answer questions. They drew tickets for fun give aways. My group of friends laughed, talked, glazed, and had a good time. We were there for about 3 hours. Between picking out the colors and how much time you want to spend on your project. It was really fun for an adult evening out. I really look forward to the next adult fun night.
