Awesome experience. Chef Vivian and Michi are a dynamic couple that make learning how to cook new dishes a pleasureable experience. Everything is easily broken down to easy bite sized segments and we got to perform each step of the process. Needless to say, eating our creation made it even better. Thank you Chef Vivian and Michi for making our celebration so memorable. Needless to say, we have booked another class. Thank you again

Great class! We made beef carpaccio which was amazingly scrumptious!!!! We helped make fresh pasta which was to die for! We also made cream sauce and sautéed mushrooms. My husband and I had a wonderful, friendly, informative class and highly recommend Chwf Vivian and Michi

It was a fun experience for me to learn how to make Gyoza for the 1st time. Chefs Vivian and Michi were very enthusiastic and patient. Everyone seemed to enjoy the class a lot. I love the potato salad and couldn’t help eating it nonestoppably. I had a blast!

Paul

08 Aug 2024

Chef Vivian and Michi's "Making Sushi" class was a great introduction to the basic knowledge of making sushi. The hands-on experience taught me how to prep, create and roll sushi. Not it takes practice and patience to "Do it on Your Own"!

Danita

30 Jul 2024

I cannot say enough good things about our experience at the House of Gucci cooking experience with Chef Vivian and Michi. We had such a great time- and learned so many interesting tips and tricks. The food was AMAZING and we enjoyed both the company and conversation! They even made tiny Tiramasus and sang Happy Birthday to my friend. You should definitely do this class!

Sierra

My friends and I did this for my b-day. It was so fun, hands-on, and the food was AMAZING (we did the Mediterranean class w/ shrimp, paella, chicken and veggies, and tiramisu)! VIvian and Michi are fun, down to earth, and have a wealth of knowledge. Something unexpectedly great about these classes is meeting the chefs who have studied and lived all around the world. Highly recommend!

Christopher

13 Jul 2024

My wife and I really enjoyed Vivian, Michi, and the food. Everything was a 100/10! I was told that Peruvian food was the best food out there and I can tell you, that is the truth! The dishes were easy and simple, yet so flavorful. We will be adding these to our dinner rotation. Thank you !!

Chefs Vivian and Michi did a wonderful job with our cooking experience. They were well prepared when we arrived and very welcoming during the whole evening.

Chef Vivian and Michi are more than amazing. They came in and brought a wonderful vibe and energy. They had everything prepped and prepared. Very communicative as well as thoughtful and friendly. The meal was 10/10 my family and I felt as though we were at a 5 start restaurant. I would love to see them again and would recommend them to anybody! Great experience.

Symone

16 Mar 2024

This was such an amazing class to take! It took about an hour, but it went by so fast because we were having so much fun. The chefs were very informative, and I love how intimate the class was. I had the luxury of sitting next to the chefs and being their VIP for the evening lol that worked out perfectly because I was able to work with her daughter and get some more 101 teaching! Such a beautiful family and I can’t wait until the next class.

Jessica

15 Mar 2024

Thank you for a wonderful time and all of your knowledge during the class. Loved the personal stories shared and the special seaweed! Thank you again.

JULIE

10 Mar 2024

This class was only one hour and was advertised as a 2 hour class. Only 2 rolls were made for each person at a price of $110 ! Not worth the money spent. However the instructors were nice and we met a great couple there making sushi with us.

Kylie

08 Mar 2024

We had a great sushi making class with Chef Vivian and Michi! It was very fun and they were both super knowledgeable and helpful! We would definitely take another class with them!

Karen

15 Jan 2024

It was a fun class and the Chef and instructor were great. Definetely a unique experience. I would recommend it for those who love Sushi!

Jeffrey

11 Jan 2024

Nice people, probably wouldn't recommend to anyone. If an event is going tonbe outside in January that should be communicated to people. I thought the venue and setup was pretty bad for this event. Also don't advertise the event as being 2 hours when it is really about 45 minutes, its sets an expectation that you are getting more than this event delivered. The cost also was far to much for what you got and the instruction was really just okay. The overall experience just did not match what was advertised.

Bill

10 Jan 2024

Chef Vivian and Michi were great! My wife and I had so much fun and learned a lot of great cooking tips. We are ready to re-make the recipes we cooked. Highly recommend any of their classes.

The class was very enjoyable and the ramen was delicious! We have a newfound love and appreciation for Ramen given the effort it takes to make it. Chef Vivian and Michi were great teachers and made the class a joy to be in!

Kimberly

26 Nov 2023

The recent Ramen cooking class with Michi and Vivan was an excellent experience. They provided clear and detailed step-by-step instructions on how to make delicious ramen at home. The class was informative, engaging, and left me feeling confident in my ability to recreate this Japanese delicacy in my own kitchen.

I took my college aged daughter to learn to make Sushi. Chefs were very friendly and eager to share their passion. Instructions were simple and straightforward and help was available, if needed. We had sixteen people in our session. A few dates, some small groups of friends and a few groups of parents and adult kids. A fun and relaxed way to learn something new while enjoying a cold craft beer. Do yourself a favor and sign up for this class. Thanks Chefs!

Vickie

Michi was perfect. Made it fun and was very informative. Already making it at home!

Jessica

29 Jun 2023

The instructors were great and the sushi was delicious 😋 However, the setting for preparing raw food is not ideal. The Craft beer bar allows dogs indoors (unhygienic) and is loud so challenging to hear instructions.

Rosalind

28 Jun 2023

Wonderful experience with a great couple. Friendly and informative. Enjoyed the learning, the group setting and eating what we made 😀

Chef Vivian and Chef Michi were beyond welcoming. We had absolutely no sushi making experience going into it and after just a few hours, feel confident that we can prepare a meal for our friends. Recipes are delicious and easy. My husband and I truly enjoyed the night and highly recommend their class.

We had a great time learning and cooking a delicious Italian meal! Great class, great eats, and great conversation was just my wife and I needed to relax and do something fun together.

MIRTHA

03 Dec 2022

Chefs were very nice but the venue was not. Restaurant setting with long table. Soccer World Cup playing on several TVs. I could barely hear the instructions. Menu was extremely basic even for a beginners class. Fortunately class was half price. Had I paid full price I would have been very disappointed

Kayli

02 Dec 2022

Great class! Purchased this to celebrate my anniversary with my boyfriend. He loved it and we both learned tons of skills! The food was delicious and Chef Vivian and Michi are great teachers and made us feel welcomed. Definitely recommend!

Excellent, fast-paced class.

Brittney

03 Jun 2022

They don’t call it “sushi making secrets” for nothing. We learned sooo much and the sushi and desert was really good. The chefs were really nice and personable. They definitely put in the 10,000 hours to know what they’re talking about. My mom said it was her best birthday ever!!!!

Corrine

06 May 2022

Such an incredible experience! Chef Vivian and Chef Michi were so humble and made us feel so welcomed. Their professionalism and expertise exceeded our expectations. Not only did we learn a new recipe but they taught us so many great cooking tips we will use in our future cooking ventures. Both chefs guided us patiently throughout the whole class and made sure we were comfortable. We are definitely coming back for another class!

Tania

05 Feb 2021

It was a fun selection of food items. Sadly, the ingredients were not all listed nor some of the amounts. During the class, there were items that were not mentioned in the directions. I had hoped to hear more from Michi's experience with the food in Japan- he did not have much time to talk. Finally, we seemed to end class about 20 minutes early and a slower pace may have been helpful.

Chef Vivian brought so much freshness in her dishes. She used same day vegetables and made everything from scratch. I had so much fun learning and I hope to do it again shortly.
