The chef didn’t seem very prepared. There were no cutting boards, not enough ingredients to make pasta for everyone, we had to use a plastic utensil spoon to cook the sauce on the stove top and there was no blender to make the pesto. She even tried to strain eggs... She ran out of time and cooked some store bought and some fresh made pasta together in one pot which wasn’t even boiling so the pasta wasn’t cooked enough. I could have made a better meal at my own home, it was nowhere near the expectation for a chef-made pasta and we didn’t learn many skills to use at home. I don’t know if she was vetted before she joined Class Pop but this was not at all what we’d expect out of a cooking class. There were no tangible cooking lessons to take from this and the food was barely edible.

Not prepared and not sure she knew what she was doing. It was an experience but more comical than anything. Not at all cooking with a hot plate no tools for the class think she though she was making one meal for 10 strangers to share and all help prepare together. Very strange.
