This should NOT be considered “a class”! The description on Class pop should give a better description of what you’re going to be doing! We thought we were going to be learning how to actually make pasta and it was more like a Play-Doh session. There were about 15 couples, EVERYONE was dumb founded. Thank goodness they had cocktails available for purchase, it made it so much easier to just laugh about it because it seemed like we were being Pranked and could not believe that this was it. There were only 3 pots to boil pasta. By the time I got mine in there it was so thick from all the dough and flour prior to mine that I just dug it out put it on a plate and throw it away. There was absolutely zero taste or flavor. It literally tasted like flour, egg, and oil. I do believe if the health department walked in the and saw what we were doing they would’ve shut it down. The entire situation should be done in a kitchen not at high top bar tables. No towels/rags/napkins bowls to mix dough or utensils. It was an absolute mess!! This was the least sanitary cooking conditions possible. Aside from there being little to no instruction, our chef was fine it’s the entire concept is a bad idea under these circumstances! All that being said, WE had a lot of laughs, new memories with my Aunt and made the best out of the situation.

Unfortunately this class did not meet our expectations and we felt was a complete waste of money. It did not match the description whatsoever which is in part due to classpop and also due to the chef. Definitely would not recommend booking any cooking classes on this site.
