    Participated in an amazing BBQ class on 8/29/26. Harry Soo is ready to up your BBQ game regardless…read moreif you are a first time beginner or an experienced pitmaster. I had watched him on TV for years taking on the best pitmasters across America and it was an honor to meet him in person. I have been a backyard BBQ guy for over a decade but I learned so much in 6 hours that it motivated me to fire up the smoker all Labor Day weekend for carne asada, ribs and waygu steaks and next weekend I will attempt Harry's method for trimming, seasoning and cooking brisket. Not only did I learn a lot, the class re-energized me to really get back in to smoking meats again(and possibly purchase a Weber Smokey Mountain grill).

    This is a class that everyone should take. If you are a pitmaster that needs help to win at a…read morecompetition, a backyard BBQcook that wants to impress friends and family with their newly acquired knowledge, a foodie that wants to know how good BBQ is made, or someone like me a KCBS certified BBQ judge that wants to better understand preparation of the meats to be a better judge. In this class you will learn everything you wanted to know about BBQ from selecting your meats, trimming the meat (fat, etc) rubs, injections, sauces, times and temperatures of cooking, different woods smokers etc. different regions and styles of BBQ. There is so much more. You learn to love yourself and others. No matter what part of the world we come from we are all the same. Food is one of the best ways to bring everyone together as one. Throughout the class, you get to sample different items. Save room for the huge spread served at lunch. The leftovers are evenly boxed up for everyone to take home. Included in the class is lifetime technical support if you have any questions. You also keep your apron, class book, graduation certificate, leftovers, and a bag of rub for your homework assignment. I highly recommend this class for all. Harry is a genuine person, down to earth, and a funny guy. You will learn so much, enjoy some great food, and have great memories.

    LBCC Bistro is the test kitchen for students enrolled in the culinary program. Reservations…read morerequired via the OpenTable app. For an even $20, guests are provided a 3 course fixed menu. 3 appetizer options, 3 entree options, and 3 dessert options. With rotating cuisines, this particular week catered to Italian fare. My choices were the shrimp bruschetta, poached sole & panna cotta. Shrimp bruschetta- A large shrimp on top of bruschetta, placed squarely in a plate of fennel broth. The broth was an interesting take, as the bruschetta soaked it up & became slightly mushy/slightly crusty. Poached sole- A large fillet of sole, paired with carrots, asparagus and fennel. I could taste the sole was previously frozen, as I've caught & cooked sole, which is a fatty & flavorful fish. The fillet could've used more sauce. Panna cotta- A winner! The pulled sugar was fun to eat, providing a contrast in texture to the creamy panna cotta. Service was excellent. Located at Building V, parking is $2/all day at the adjacent structure on Clark & Carson. For a fair amount of a jaunt, free parking can be had at LBX. Wanna feel like a judge on Hell's Kitchen? Dining at LBCC Bistro is a great way to experience being a gourmet guinea pig. I look forward to booking again, soon.

The dining area is beautiful.and spacious with wall of windows to watch the activity in the kitchen. In addition, there is a large screen monitor to view activity. Fun to watch the dishes prepared before they come out! For $25 (before tax and tip), you appetizer/salad, main dishes, dessert, and beverages! High quality gourmet meal artistically plated! We all.loved our meals and the exceptional service! We were served New Potato Salad, Yougurt Chicken or Garden Pasta, and Apple Tartin for dessert! All dishes were so tasty and elegantly prepared. The New Potato Salad was amazing! I definitely could have eaten an entire bowl it was so good! I love that the menu included the names of the students preparing (by dish) in the kitchen and serving in the dining area! Reservations are required! No walk-ins. Reservations are available thru Open Table 3 weeks out. They are only open for lunch, Tuesdays and Wednesdays for about 10 weeks each semester. Reservations book up fast and strongly suggest to keep checking if at first you don't see an opening. Definitely an underrated local gem in Long Beach!

She was so sweet, helpful and welcoming. It was a private event to celebrate family August birthdays. We went with the Mediterranean menu and it was so delicious. Chef Alex was so helpful and easy going as was Jay. Highly recommend!

    Went here for a work team building event and it was perfect from beginning to end…read more Chef Alex, our instructor for the day, was personable, funny, knowledgeable, and entertaining. It was very obvious that Chef Alex had conducted multiple corporate team building events as well as being a skilled/seasoned chef. We had 22 people for our team building event and there was plenty of space for us to each have our own cooking stations (teams of two) and there was ample seating for all of us to enjoy the fruits of our labors after the cooking was completed. We prepared thai food for our event and, WOW, was it amazing. I mean (literally), this was the best thai food that I'd ever had and this is coming from someone who's wife says "you eat way too much thai food!" The very tasty food is a testament to how well run this place is because we are just a bunch of accountants but we also apparently have an inner self that knows how to cook thai food. Overall, this place is clean, fun, there is ample parking and I would highly recommend. If this place wasn't so far from me, I'd definitely go back on a date night with my wife.
