This used to be a wonderful place to take my daughter for summer camps and teacher workday camps…read more She started at Flour Power when she was about 2-1/2 in the classes they had for littles, then started going there for camps when she started school and she's 13 now. This year things have really changed there for the worse...there are WAY too many kids in the space and almost the entire staff turned over. I've been debating about no longer going there after this summer is over, and this morning was the last straw. I dropped my daughter off and there were 2-3 staff people in the front kitchen and NO ONE acknowledged us or greeted my daughter. This is really sad and insulting. I realize the staff were busy but nothing should stand in the way of greeting a customer and making them feel welcomed if you want them to return. If they don't realize someone is coming in because there is too much chaos, maybe they need to tie bells on the door.

This business is located in north hills so make sure that you arrive a little early in case it is…read morehard to find parking. The studio is very colorful with lots of decor and several tables and chairs in the front of the business. Aprons are also provided. I heard about the adult chef series from the owner Debbie at the north hills block party. She was really nice and excited about this event. At the chef series event she told us that they had just started the adult cooking classes about 6 months ago and that they are so much fun. For today's event they had a special food and wine pairing with Total Wine. The Wine Steward, Nathaniel, recommended certain wines that would go well with the items that we prepared this evening. He was very knowledgeable and funny. He also gave us coupons for future purchases at Total Wine. This was my first times at a cooking studio so I thought that each person or group that came together would prepare all of the recipes but each table ended up making one of the 3 recipes. This ended up working out well because the two hours would not have been long enough for everyone to do all of the recipes. Our table ended up making the southern cornbread but since it was a quick recipe we also assisted with the Butternut Squash/Apple & Pear Soup. The last table made the Spicy White Bean Chicken Chili. The food was really good and filling. I thought that the chili was going to be really spicy because it had green chili peppers but it had the perfect amount of heat. I didn't know what to expect from the soup but it had great flavor. The cornbread was not bad but our table thought that it was missing something. The butter that was provided helped. The wine tasting occurred while our food was cooking. It started off well but then when a few of us left to finish the soup we never really got back on track with it. I enjoyed hearing Debbie tell us about the past and future adult chef series classes and the children's classes. We also enjoyed being able to meet and interact with so many cool people at our table. Debbie and her staff were very helpful providing us with utensils, drinks, directions, etc. We had a great time!

My son has been attending group classes at the Raleigh location, learning "Scratch" for about 3…read moremonths. Most of the franchises are located in Silicon Valley. We're so fortunate to have such a place in our city. What an amazing find. The teachers are very engaging, and keep the students excited about learning. And they really seem to care about the students. They teach from the very young, novice students (my son is 7), to advanced programming (high school AP computer science), with students designing games and apps and showcasing their work at special events organized by the school. They offer group classes, individualized coaching (1 instructor for 2 students), as well as track out, summer camps and kids nights out. In addition to the fun, my son is actually learning a valuable skill that will serve him well in life. I wish something like this existed when I was a kids...but then, there WAS no Internet when I was a kid!

It is time to update my review after so many years. AR Workshop is still located in the same spot…read morein Wakefield. What has changed is that they now offer even more variety in workshops. They still have all the original workshops but have expanded the options to add candles, blankets, sourdough bread, cookie decorating, canvas to cornhole boards. Some of the classes are for adults and others are for children. It is easy to register on the website. The hard part is selecting your project and design. The staff is friendly and will offer as much help as you need. There is even a gift shop in the front with décor, kits to do projects at home or finished projects if you prefer they make it for you.

COOKING CLASS REVIEW ONLY:…read more : ( Sharing the cooking amongst four people is a disappointing experience. Not nearly enough hands-on work for the student (Suggestion: Give people the option to cook as a twosome for a higher fee). : ( Upon entering the kitchen we found our name tags and introduced ourselves to the instructor. When we asked "what is your name?" ...we were told "I will tell you my name later whenever everyone arrives because I have a big 'shpeel' to deliver and I don't want to repeat myself.' (Suggestion: Try to make your clients feel welcomed by saying 'My name is....) : ( Too much of the cooking is not done by the students; even a simple two-ingredient step in the recipe was not done by us but was done by the instructor?! We had to gather around and watch this very simple thing (Suggestion: Let the student do a bit more). : ( Somewhat difficult to hear instructor with exhaust fans and classroom noise. : ) Food was good to eat : ) Having all the raw ingredients set up and measured Maybe if you have friends that want to drink wine (BYOB) and watch you cook ...this maybe a good fit for you.

A fantastic store for any and all your semi-gourmet kitchen needs. The reason I state semi is that…read morewhile they do have a good amount of specialty items, there are also a good amount of gaps, especially if looking for specific items. While at first the prices may seem high, the items they are selling are high quality and prices are in fact fairly typical for what they have in store. Now one thing that was surprising, typically when stores sell their own branded items, they are cheaper, however here it seemed to be the opposite with many items. The staff were friendly, but not the most knowledgeable. They were definitely trying to help, but at the same time they appeared to be incredibly busy, even though the store was mostly empty, running back and forth from the back grabbing items and helping customers pickup items before being able to help out others.

Her knowledge helps to position them for receiving top dollar while listing while delivering her message in a kind and authentic way. I have also had the pleasure of taking a continuing education course recently with Bobbie to help better myself in my real estate career. She brings the same professionalism and her sense of humor with her as an instructor. She is a wealth of knowledge and openly shares her experiences and humor to make the information useful and understandable. The format of the class was interactive, which I appreciate as a person that likes to be on the go and not in a classroom. Whether you are a Real Estate agent, a Stager with experience or a novice, or a person who will be selling a home in the Triangle I highly recommend connecting with Bobbie McGrath.
