I had such a wonderful time at the Italian Favorites cooking class! We made delicious dishes completely from scratch, and everything turned out amazing. The atmosphere was so fun — good food, good music, and even better company. The instructor was knowledgeable, patient, and made the whole experience enjoyable and easy to follow. I left with new skills, a full stomach, and great memories. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun, hands-on night out!

Chef Damon was delightful and the food fantastic. We thought we would be participating more but it was a wonderful experience. Still waiting on the recipes as promised.

We had a great experience learning from Chef Damon. Not only were the results of our efforts utterly delicious, but Chef Damon was also a gracious host and shared lots of wisdom we could apply to making dishes of all kinds throughout the evening. I couldn't recommend his class more!
