21 reviews

Signature

Learn to turn out your own delicate gnocchi for a fresh take on Italian dining in this hands-on cooking class. Chef Legina is ready and waiting to share her secrets for creating this delicious alternative to traditional pasta.

You'll use a blend of potatoes, flour and eggs to create homestyle dough and turn it into a batch of the freshest gnocchi in town. Then, turn your attention to the topping, a blend of earthy pesto with the goodness of fresh basil and silky cream sauce featuring tender mushrooms.

We really enjoyed this class! Never having done this before now, my husband I weren't sure what to expect so were pleasantly surprised at the relaxed, conversational, and clear way this class was instructed. The atmosphere at Rockwell Brewing Company was perfect to share directions on the food prep and then enjoy the results. The mango salsa was the BEST I have ever tasted and I look forward to getting the recipe to try to duplicate it at home. Hope to do this again soon and bring friends along to enjoy as well!

We had the best time making pasta as a group! It was easy to do, fun and we learned a lot about how to do this ourselves. I would highly recommend to any type of groups interested in learning how to make pasta or just want to do a fun activity.

What a wonderful class and evening with Chef Legina! Her and her team were knowledgeable and so engaging with the group and we all had such a great time. If you are looking for a team building activity with a twist, this is it! We cant wait for our next team event to get back together with Chef! Thank you!!

What a welcoming, informative, and entertaining chef! Went for a date night to her sushi making class and we were not only left full and happy from the rolls of sushi we were fed, but excited to take her teachings into our kitchen. Five stars, recommend highly. Her and her su chef are awesome!

Chef Legina was extremely kind when we called on our way to class and told her we could not make it due to an emergency. She was agreeable to us switching to another class. However I have been trying to contact classpop for almost 3 weeks now, several emails, calls and social media messages with no response. I would love to be able to take this class soon but it seems like classpop has no interest in customer service. I hope someone will contact me back soon.

Fun and knowledgeable chefs who made a tasty taco. Chefs were very nice and approachable. The class was more more a demo than a hands on cooking class, was hard to hear or see in the venue. The $55 dollar cost for a demo and 1 taco seemed a bit steep. A better set up or at least enough food for the group to have really enjoyed a couple tacos would have improved the experience. I think as they work out the tweeks it will improve, there is a a lot of potential.

I loved the instructional style and all that we learned from the class! The only thing I do wish was for a station for everybody to participate.

Chef Legina is such a great hostess and chef! If you are ever looking for something fun to do, I promise you will have fun, make friends, and learn something about the kitchen that you didn't know before! We learned a lot and put together a great brunch!
