    Another amazing cooking class. I attended with a friend this time and we got through the entire…read moreclass without burning anything! We had a blast. I will say that the pace was a bit quicker than my last class, as there was much more to get done, but we kept up, giggles and all. The environment was comfortable, and the staff's attention to detail created a relaxing and enjoyable evening. We didn't have to overthink anything; we could just go with the flow. Everything was prepared for us from start to finish. After cooking, we sat, ate, and were pleasantly surprised to find that, after guessing the right amount of seasoning for our produce and meat, we ended up seasoning everything perfectly to our taste. We look forward to taking more classes and inviting a few more friends to join us.

The shop itself is amazing with so many cooking and kitchen items that you can purchase. I've taken several classes here and as an amateur cook and baker each class was interesting and a learning experience . My first class was making Cavatelli pasta , something I have never made before , what a great class and it came out so yummy ! When you arrive you go into the dining area and before you begin cooking there are complimentary appetizers and wine served! It was so nice ! For my next class I wanted to take something easy and fun so I did the mozzarella and pizza class. That particular class had about 40 people attending .All the chefs were great and kept everyone engage! Recently I attended the class .. Scarpinocc pasta with brown butter and sage sauce and lemon Panacotta but after arriving we learned the initial menu slightly changed . Instead we made ravioli with impastata cheese and fresh chopped tomatoes and basil , also Vanilla honey Panacotta. It all turned out wonderful. When first arriving we had complimentary mimosas and appetizers of riceballs and chicken. This being my first time making ravioli I was very excited ! It was an amazing time and everything we made came out delicious! Along with our meal we were also served a delicious ,freshly made salad with feta cheese ! I'm now looking on their calendar to see what else peaks my interest. Will definitely be taking another class soon ! Thank you to all the wonderful and talented chefs ! Everyone was so friendly , patient and knowledgeable !

    Our group selected a cooking class here which included dinner with pasta-making as the only…read morehands-on portion of the evening. We only mixed flour and water together to roll out pasta. For $125/person, I had expected better tasting food though. The small appetizers (spinach salad, prosciutto, Parmesan, olives) may have been put together from a grocery store. For the pasta that we rolled out, the staff only added a plain tomato sauce. The side of vegetables was overcooked and mushy. Tiramisu was all right. We can blame the taste and texture of the pasta on ourselves, because we made it, but I had expected the rest of the food prepared by professionals to be better. No drinks were included -- Healthy Italia is BYOB. There was a nice intro video from the owner telling us about her history and philosophy. She said that she doesn't measure ingredients, and only mixes by feel. How does one teach a cooking class like this? If someone is taking a cooking class, they are less experienced and need precise measurements and instructions. Our flour and water were measured for us, so I guess they do measure something. We were never told the measurements, so didn't have any recipe or any specific learnings to take home. I enjoyed the social time with my group, and especially the long table set out for our group in true Italian fashion. It made us feel like a big cohesive family. However, for $125/person, I felt like we could have had a true learning experience elsewhere or had a much better Italian dinner at a restaurant with drinks. In fact, on the subsequent evening, a few individuals from our group went to a restaurant and ordered similar items served at this cooking class, and the food was remarkably better. And yes, it was less than $125/person with drinks.

    Jenna is awesome…read more After completing our online prep survey, we visited Jenna's kitchen as a couple. Jenna is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and has great tips and tricks for the experienced cook and patience for those of us who struggle to use a stove knob. Her recipes are prepared beforehand based on your tastes and are really healthy, delicious, and easy to prepare. I felt like I was on a cooking show. Her kitchen is professional and well-stocked with tools. She is a great conversationalist and keeps the session moving at the right pace, based on the meals you are preparing. This was worth every penny and I highly recommend Cook Learn Live, and Jenna, specifically.

    Jenna is wonderful! Working with her was such a treat!…read more My school sponsored a group of us to attend one of her cooking classes, and it was a fantastic experience. The class was not only educational, it was a lot of fun, and definitely a great reprieve from my typical Sunday afternoons spent studying in front of a computer. Jenna did a great job of overseeing the prepping and cooking of the four dishes we had on the menu for the night. I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like to manage a kitchen full of amateur chefs (half of whom rarely cook at home)...but somehow she managed to do it with grace! Jenna was extremely patient with and open to all of our questions as well. In particular, I thought she did a great job of incorporating the 'why' behind her answers to questions like: What ingredients do you always have on hand? How do you know which spices go well together? What goes into a vegetable stock? I really appreciated how Jenna tailored the class specifically for a group of grad students, focusing on: increasing the nutritional value of our meals, saving time in the kitchen, and all the while cutting down on costs. Three things that I know I DEFINITELY need to do more of! I walked away from the class with an arsenal of new cooking tips, a full belly (plus a few containers of leftovers), and a packet of recipes from the class. Three hours very, very well spent! Thanks for all of your cooking tips, Jenna! For anyone interested in learning how to eat healthier or to be more effective in the kitchen, I would highly, highly recommend her classes!

I do wish they handed out printed recipes which would be helpful to follow along. They said they would email them I'm waiting to receive it. We each had a different food station. I would of tried to make all the menu items. I don't know if that would be possible though with a group of our size. The employees are very friendly and helpful.

Interactive classes. Enthusiastic chef Enzo made the experience 5 star. The cost is extremely fair, considering the amount of food you get. At 70.00 for a full 4 course Italian meal i can't complain. I literally was stuffed and couldn't finish it all. Beware: the class lasted a full 3 hours. But we ate the entire time....!!!! There's several "assistants" who walk around and help you and take directions from the chef. I could care less about doing it myself, I'm here to watch the expert cook and walk me through it and I loved every minute of it. Definitely put your hair up. They even had Bobby pins and ponytail holders at the sink station. Super helpful. They also used top notch ingredients all imported from Italy. They did not skimp out anywhere. I'd highly recommend this for a date night. There's about 15 seats and there's honestly not a bad seat in the house bc every cooking station at the large island was used. See my pics, it'll paint the picture for you.

    If you want to have an incredible and unique date night, you have to hit up Julia at Culinary…read moreWorks. This was my first time and my husband's third time (they do corporate events as well). Julia had a beautifully curated meal planned for us, Italian themed called Italian Comfort Food. When we arrived, there was a delicious white bean dip with crackers and carrots. The dip was light and lemony and described as easy to make using a food processor. The group of 19 moved to an antipasto station where we created skewers with varying cheeses, meats, vegetables, peppers, and my favorite, the caper wrapped anchovy! Everyone took part in making the skewers and plating them, which is fun. Then each person chose a card that stated what station we would go to. My husband and I chose the meat lasagna. Other stations were a chicken lasagna, asparagus and arugula salad, garlic bread and homemade hazelnut ice cream. While at our meat lasagna station, we learned how to make the meat, a mixture of sausage and beef, the homemade lasagna noodles, the béchamel sauce. We layered the noodles, meat, cheese, ricotta and did it again. After 40 minutes, it came out oozing with deliciousness! I thought that nothing could taste better until I tried the chicken lasagna with white sauce. Omg! Incredible! I'm a "cook for survival" type of gal and I came out learning a few cool tips- like, to make the best garlic bread, wet the outside of the bread before putting it in the oven! The crust comes out with a bit of crackle but the inside is buttery, garlicky, soft! I don't see the process of making the ice cream, but I did get to enjoy it and boy did I! Chocolate, nutty, rich and creamy! My favorite dish of all though, was the asparagus salad- arugula and sliced almond with a wonderfully delicious dressing to top it off. It is easy, refreshing, light and could be a meal in itself. And as Julia said, "not every salad needs cheese," but if you must.... I would love some goat cheese on top. The best part of the evening, besides the 5* food, was the company! It was such a fun date night, the people in our group were so nice and friendly and Julia and James her assistant make it lighthearted and fun. I can't wait to return for another event.
