We participated with 6 or 7 other people, so it was a a good small group but we did enjoy chatting with the other attendees. Our instructor was fun, friendly, and knowledgeable and answered all our questions along the way. We started with a spring mix salad and for the entree, she made a veggie option and one with sausage. Both were delicious, but my favorite was definitely the meat version. I love that this was just an hour long and so a little more budget friendly and also if you call the shop and book directly, you can save the online booking fees so keep that in mind. I definitely plan to attend another class - these are such fun, interactive, and tasty events and they are helping me get into cooking more which has been a longtime goal of mine., The demo kitchen is in the back of the shop, the rest of the store is full retail with home and kitchen goods, decor, gifts, etc. You get 10% off your purchase after taking the demo class, so don't forget that. @azfitfoodfun

Looking for a neat birthday experience for my niece, I came across Southern Home and Kitchen. Why…read morewould I take a child to a home goods store, you ask? Look over their events calendar and you'll see they offer several cooking classes a week, including some which are specifically targeted towards children. With a roomy kitchen setup in the back of the store, there are every kind of class you can think of which allow you to try to cuisines, learn new techniques, and try new tools. Today's visit was a children's class, taught by Nissa and assisted by Jennifer (the website lists all the instructor profiles.) Nissa is an elementary school teacher and was FANTASTIC with keeping a group of kids engaged, learning, and feeling welcomed. The kids were given cookbooks, walked step-by-step through several recipes, and got to be hands-on through every step of the process. They learned how to safely use tools, how to mix the ingredients, and at the end of the class got to eat what they had made. My niece LOVED this experience, and as the adult in corner watching I was a bit jealous. Of course, the adults are not required to stay, and they told me some parents choose to go shop or get a treat in Thru-Way while the class happens, but we were also welcome to watch. Personally, I spent some time wandering the store and was enamored with such a massive selection of kitchen tools and home goods. I ended up buying a few of the tools they used during the class to bring home (like a really nifty tool for mincing garlic, or a strawberry huller!). I'm planning to come back and try one of these classes for adults in the future. They told me that some of the adult classes are more observation while some are hands-on, so check the calendar, but I fully recommend checking the classes out for a fun activity. And if education isn't your thing, swing by one afternoon while you're shopping to check out the very broad inventory offerings in the store. All of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful!

Clerk in clothing department VERY cordial and friendly. After a few days, Dec 28 I decided to return to buy my adult female children another piece or two of Brighton jewelry and look over the discounted Christmas items. I had just started shopping and the sales clerk in the jewelry department, near the Brighton display, asked me in a harsh tone if she could help me. I assured her I was fine and continued browsing. She told me TWICE that any jewelry had to be paid for before leaving the area. Then she proceeded to try and take my basket as "it looks heavy and I can hold it at the counter ". I assured her again I was fine and when I was through shopping I'd pay for my purchases. I continued shopping, looking at the soaps and scented lotions. At this point she called security and told her I was SHOPLIFTING!! All I was doing was browsing and ignoring the rude clerk. I continued "shopping and browsing" for another 30 minutes or so & I could have done this for hours but tired of the reception and unfair accusation. I found another clerk to check out. I paid for my selected items, all in my basket, and left. I'm an elderly professional female, dressed appropriately for shopping and feel I certainly didn't appear homeless nor on drugs. I have absolutely no idea why the clerk "profiled" me as a "shoplifter"! I travel frequently for work and buy a lot of my jewelry in airport boutiques. I have also purchased a number of items of Brighton at my go-to-place in Greensboro. Afterwards I was sorry I didn't just fill my basket up, sit it down, then walk out. I'll be returning every item I purchased Saturday (over $500) at Salem Creek and making sure store management is aware of the way staff treated a potential high paying customer. I'll also make sure to let all my friends and colleagues know about the way I was treated by store staff! Very unprofessional.

The layout is very spacious and not overfilled. I was disappointed with the experience I had with the staff. I was trying on some boots and the sign on the shelf AND the tag on the boots said they were on sale as well as the employee scanned the barcode to find my size. She came out saying not only were they on sale but it was the last pair! So when they fit, I was definitely buying them. I went to check out and a different associate said they were not on sale, the wrong tag was attached AND the wrong sign was with them on the shelf. Now, I've worked retail many years before and if the signage is wrong, not to mention a tag that's attached is incorrect at no fault of the customer, we honored it. This was $168.99 vs $89.99 so a big difference! They refused to honor it and I chose to leave vs make a scene because I'm more respectful than that. I loved the boots, and would have still gotten them if the staff had handled it a little differently - even at full price. I had several items in my hands so instead of spending over $200 I spent $0 and I hope the next experience is much better. Especially considering they used the barcode to go get the boot and still claimed wrong and not correct price.
