Chef David was excellent and the space was professional and conducive to the experience. He didn’t just teach us several great recipes, he taught us knife skills, space preparation and other cooking skills over the course of the lesson that we will use for years to come. He also easily addressed allergies so that everyone could enjoy the full meal. He made the lesson seem easy and fun, a true testament to a great teacher, clear instructions and an organized kitchen and plan. We enjoyed it and highly recommend him to anyone considering a cooking class.

This was so much fun! Can’t wait to go back. David was fun and knowledgeable, the space was super cute, and the food was delish. All recipes I now feel very comfortable making at home.

WHAT A BLAST!!! I've been talking about our Spanish Tapas Cooking Class to anyone who would listen for days now :) It was THE MOST FUN experience. Chef David's kitchen is such a vibe! My fiance and I are always looking for different things to do for date night, and this one was by far, my favorite yet. Chef David let's you take lead, while also teaching you particulars along the way. I not only had fun, but I also learned some new skills! Being able to sit down and enjoy the meal together we created at the end was so rewarding. We will definitely be back to Chef David's kitchen for another cooking experience! And I have to mention...he even had GF bread for the pan con tomate which made my evening that much better! Thank you Chef David for being SO AWESOME!!!
