While online ordering is available, the true charm is found by visiting the Chevy Chase location in person--especially if you have the pleasure of working with Kelly. Kelly is exceptionally knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Her recommendations were thoughtful and perfectly suited to our tastes, making the experience feel both personal and elevated. I haven't yet visited the Hamburg location, but it's certainly on my list. During our visit, Kelly shared that Stuarto's hosts monthly cooking classes featuring their products. My husband and I decided to turn one into a date night, and it was a wonderful experience. The chef was engaging and articulate, the ingredients were prepped in advance, and the entire evening felt effortless yet refined--focused on flavor, technique, and enjoyment. A particularly lovely touch was that Kelly remembered us when we arrived for the class, reinforcing the level of care and attention that defines this business. From the quality of the oils and vinegars to the impeccable service and thoughtfully curated events, Stuarto's Olive Oil Company delivers excellence at every level. A truly polished experience--I highly recommend it.

The woman working, I believe her name was Kelly, was so helpful in helping me select an olive oil and vinegar pair which was great because there is a huge variety to choose from! I was able to sample a few and you honestly cannot go wrong. They also offer a seasoning mix called "olive oils best friend" that pairs so well with most of the olive oils. I will be back!

I'd arranged with Kathy Douglas, who was SO professional to work with ahead of time. She arrived promptly with everything needed, and got us all to work. She was the perfect coach, and it was great fun. The dinner was DELICOUS, and I can't wait to try the recipes at home. All ingredients were organic and non-GMO. Then, while we ate in the grand dining room, she cleaned everything up and packed it off! Would do this again in a heartbeat - excellent value for money.

It was unorganized, there is no direction and all the knifes were really dull and the stove didn't work that great !! We roughly made a lemongrass soup and some kind of salad that had no salad ingredients in it. This was supposed to be a Thai cooking class. We basically got a paper print out of the recipes and we just had to follow them. Except if there was something in the recipe that the chef didn't like himself, then we were not given any of that. Hate leaving a review like this, but I really don't want anyone else to spend this much money on something that's a entire waste of time! We actually made up an excuse to leave early... We opted for going next-door to the Mexican place and getting a margarita to drown our disappointment in !! Highly recommend the Mexican place next-door !! If I could give this cooking class a negative star, I would.

Greatly appreciate that Cooking at the Cottage hosts these amazing classes and the business owner, Linda, is always on site and welcoming participants and also answering questions. Facilities are comfortable, well lit, clean, and great exhaust system to vent air from the cooktop. Chef Bowe is a terrific instructor with the ability to simplify what appears to be a complex dish at first glance. High quality ingredients from locally sourced farms, including Freedom Run for lamb, Fischer Farm for the beef dish, and several others. Easily equivalent to a meal at a high end restaurant and we learned how to replicate this at home. We also received a 10% discount card for 30 days following our program to shop in the merchandise section of the store. The shop has a bazillion things that go on my wish list each time I visit and sometimes it's my secret source to choose gifts for my family and friends who seem to have everything.

She loves watching cooking shows, but has trouble walking and isn't the most adventurous eater. We've been to all the nice restaurants in Lexington that aren't too "weird". During my search for someplace new, I stubbled on the BlueHen Chefs' Yelp page. I was a little hesitant to talk to them, but scheduled a call anyway. They are fantastic! Soooo, easy to talk to and they LISTENED to what I wanted. The whole list of what my mom doesn't like, lol, and the bucket list dishes she wanted to try. They sent me a sample menu that looked good and I tweaked it a bit and added more courses. The result was a once in a lifetime meal for Mother's Day. Every dish was better than the one before it! I travel a lot and have tried many, many different things. I was blown away by how good everything was. We had a very eclectic menu that I thought would be challenging, but they had no problem. I can say that their crab cakes were better than I've had in Baltimore, their lobster risotto was better than Gordon Ramsey Steak, and their key lime pie was better than in the Florida Keys! The portion sizes were just right, too. Overall, I couldn't be any happier that I took the first step and talked to them. I can't express enough how good the food was and how comfortable they are to have in your home. They made my mother feel like a queen for a day. P.S. They bring a TON of things with them, all very organized. It's impressive. After the meal they clean up and leave your kitchen spotless. You also get all the leftovers and remaining ingredients. Have containers ready.
