Had a really fun time cooking with Chef Polly! My wife and I learned a lot and got exposure to a lot of new and unusual ingredients to make vegan Korean food. The environment was comfortable and we made a ton of food to enjoy throughout. I'd strongly recommend the class and any other class Chef Polly teaches!

My fiancé and I had a stellar experience at Chef Polly's class! She was so friendly and knowledgeable. We learned a ton about Korean food (and cooking in general!) but the experience was also relaxed and fun. Not to mention that the food was so delicious! We can't wait to try out the recipes again at home. Thanks so much Polly!
