Such a fun date night! My husband and I decided to attend Cooking with Love and I'm so glad we did!…read moreWe both really enjoyed the class and learned a few things! Both the instructors were very helpful, sweet oh and patient ( I could not for the life of me perfect my dumpling pinching!) My husband hasn't cooked anything in his life but eggs and top ramen so watching him knead out dough and be hands on was entertaining. The whole set up and ambience was so cute and relaxed. We had so much fun that we already plan on going back for another class!

Walking in, the set up was so warm and welcoming as if you didn't leave your own home. Little did I know we created such a beautiful memory together learning to make dumplings & lemongrass soup. It was also BYOB which made the experience just as fun even if you aren't getting a little tipsy. Brandon and Therese are such a warm, welcoming couple who made this experience incredible! I look forward to bringing more friends and family along to join in on the experience

I was nervous about signing up for the home cook course, felt vulnerable in a new environment in…read morewhich I had no skills or training in. I can't recommend this beginner course enough. Even after the 1st day my meals at home were suddenly consistent and significantly better. 12 weeks later and I am confidently relaxed in my kitchen. I enjoy the ease that I feel now; from preparing dinner, menu planning, temp control, and little tips you just can't learn on google. Learning in person from Chef Jason and Chef Ben with a group of funny, eager, and caring adults has really shaped how I can give back to my family. This was the common denominator for all the students in our course. We wanted to learn a new skill to share with the ones we care about most, our families. "I haven't made a sh**** meal since day one of this course" - quote from my fiancé Take the leap and invest in yourself and your family plus laughing about it along the way is always a plus.

Closed the school and no promised refunds collected. Terrible thing to do to students.read more

Food was great and our group learned a lot about things we thought we were doing correctly for so long (knife skills, tips, tricks).

I've visited Domaine Artefact several times now, and every experience has been consistently…read moreoutstanding. The wines are exceptional, the staff is incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming, and the atmosphere is genuinely family-friendly. The property itself is absolutely stunning, making it the perfect place to spend an afternoon. I also love that they have a café, a pizza vendor, and live music, all of which elevate the overall experience and create a relaxed, inviting atmosphere. One of my favorite wines is the La Dame Blanche, a beautiful Grenache Blanc with notes of citrus, white peach, and toasted almonds. It's crisp, refreshing, and incredibly well-balanced. Domaine Artefact has quickly become one of my go-to wineries. Whether you're a seasoned wine enthusiast or just looking for a beautiful place to unwind with friends and family, I highly recommend paying them a visit.

We watched Under the Tuscan Sun and it gave us all the feels. We will definitely be back to do a proper tasting and check out the estate and cafe once it's fully open. Pro-Tip: They have a pizza vendor on site, but they ran out by the time we got there at 6:00 PM. Definitely get there earlier and order sooner rather than later!

He had some of us help out in the kitchen, and that was really fun/cool to get some tips on prepping some of the items. The food was seriously fantastic. He put together a tomato sauce and guanciale pasta for us, with some side dishes (chicken and prosciutto, mushrooms, and mashed cauliflower) and finished it off with a Tiramisu from scratch! Place a special cake for me on top of that, which was probably one of the best chocolate cake/mousse desserts (sorry I don't know what it's called) I've ever had. I would 100% do this again and highly recommend to anyone looking for something different to do with a big group.

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!

I often describe Tijuana cuisine as going through a culinary renaissance. So many restaurants keep…read moregetting better and fancier with each passing year, it's quite remarkable. Even Anthony Bourdain thought so... and come on, if Anthony Bourdain makes a statement about food, it must be truth. The funny thing is, as much as the culinary arts have grown in town there really aren't that many culinary schools in town that aren't crazy expensive private art schools. It's a bummer that people have to go across the border to get this sort of training and education. That's why I'm a fan of this Culinary Art School. The quality of chefs that come out of here is amazing, some of them work at the finest restaurants in town. Aside from the usual culinary school programs and degrees they also offer small workshops where anyone can sign up (last one I heard of was a beer appreciation course) if this is something that might interest you go ahead and sign up on their website so you can get the newsletter!
