Cooking Class: Master Thai Curry With Chef Malik

Very informative and Chef Malik was an excellent teacher.

- Maria

Chef Malik's class was both informative and entertaining! The sauce boss taught us plenty of details about getting & spices, none of which I had known previously despite many episodes of Hell's kitchen and Iron chef. He's also very experienced and happy to talk about his cooking career! The food we made was delicious, of course. Highly recommend classes with Chef Malik.

- Amanda

The class was very interesting and fun. The food was delicious. We are inspired to use the spices and herbs that Malik taught about.

My husband and I really enjoyed this class, we met some great people. The vibes were great, Chef Malik was super nice/fun. Very informative, he educated me on a few things that I didn’t even realize I needed. I left the class feeling very motivated and confident. Thank you Chef Malik and all the wonderful people we met. You are appreciated.

- Mercedes

Great class. Very interactive

- Briana

Chef Malek made the class fun!

- Rosetta

This was the first cooking classroom, my wife and I. We really enjoyed ourselves. The chef was very attentive. The food was fantastic, and he even gave us to go containers to bring home leftovers. The only downside to the class was the venue.

Great experience! Had such a fun time!

This was a me problem, I had a hard time hearing between the music in the brewery and everybody else talking.

- Chris

Great personality, fun experience. As someone who loves thai food, this experience wasn't quite what I expected.

- Chamari

Great class! I took my son and we had fun!

- Erica

It was fun! It would be nice if you either offer aprons or advise people to bring their own, along with take home containers if your not able to finish your meal.

- Adrienne

Great idea and history. Acoustics in brewery made it a little difficult to hear and understand the chef, but he adjusted and tried to accommodate. Food was great and he explained some substitutions i never knew about

- Jason

Thank you for an educational evening making homemade curry!

- Laurie

The class was ok, I was disappointed that we did not go home with a recipe. This was the first cooking class I have attended that did not provide a printed recipe …

- Pam

Chef Malik did not show up to the cooking class. Could not get ahold of him and have not been contacted regarding this experience. Very unprofessional

- Mia

Was not able to attend at the address listed wasn't correct. My husband and I tried to call with no answer. Won't be scheduling anymore cooking classes u til people are more responsive. Wasted $200 on cooking classes I couldn't attend due to no response about location. Wasn't able to attend.

We attended the Authentic Pasta Making Class at the Wine Collective. Chef Malik was very kind and allowed us the opportunity to get drinks from the bar and wash our hands even though it was quite a walk away. The class was very informative even though every thing didn't go as planned, we all learned and left knowing how to make pasta, I wish we added salt though.

- Toni

Chef Malik taught us pasta making in a fun and easy way! Some instructions were hard to hear, would suggest maybe a microphone for future classes.

GREAT CLASS GREAT INSTRUCTIONS I CAN ABSOLUTELY MAKE SUSHI . THANKS TO CHEF MALIK.

- MELVIN

The class was a lot of fun, Chef Malik is great.

Great class! It's hard to tell who had the best time my wife, my 6yr old or me! Chef I appreciate ur generosity and we are looking forward to ur sushi advanced class

- thomas

Chef Malik was very passionate and knowledgeable. He made the lesson easy and fun to follow.

- Alex

Gave excellent tips on making pasta by hand and cooking.

- Yvonne

Chef Malik made the class fun and kept things simple so even a cooking novice like me could follow along. I highly recommend his class!

- Alex

The chef Malik makes everything seem simple and gives very clear instructions and makes sure that everyone is doing everything perfectly!

- Betsy

We had a great time

- Tori Denae

Chef Malik was wonderful, his instruction was easy to follow and he visited each table to see how we were doing and gave further instruction if needed. The pasta and Alfredo sauce were delicious! We will definitely take other cooking classes from Chef Malik. His assistant/sister was equally wonderful and they make a great team.

- Erik

Had a great time making the pasta and enjoyed Malik’s cooking tips! The Alfredo sauce was on point!

- Michelle

Our group had a lot of fun and learned loads! Chef Malik made everything hands on and easy for folks who don’t cook. Highly recommend.

- Rica

Great class! Learned how to make a great cali roll.

- Tam

Everything was excellent. Thank you for the experience!

- Tanya

This was a great, fun class. Chef Malik was a good teacher, and fun to listen to.

- Carol

Overall, this was a great experience! If you are looking for something that is very skilled, this is not for you. This is supposed to be fun and light-hearted; a great date night idea. Although I was alone, I do recommend going to this as two people because there is a lot of food to be shared and definitely help is needed with the dough. Chef Malik was really nice and patient!

- Katia

We enjoyed learning how to make pasta in the same amount of time it would take to dump the box and boil it. It was fun and Chef Malik and his sister were great!

- Cami

The Chef Malik was great! He made sure that we all understood the process and would be able to replicate it at home. He checked on everyone frequently so we could work independently and do it right!

- Betsy

Chef Malik showed us a great time. Better than a restaurant meal.

- Katherine

I had a great time! Chef Malik was very friendly and easy to understand.

- Sheila

Chef Malik was personable; interactive and created a great environment for our first cooking class. THANK YOU!

- Chelsea

Great interactive class! We learned some really amazing techniques for making pasta and Alfredo sauce from scratch! Chef Malik was great! Would definitely do another class.

- Amber

fun class, learned a lot about making sushi and even successfully made my own rolls!

- Maxwell

Lots of fun. Chef Malik is nice and fun to work with. Definitely recommend this class for everyone. Tips provided were helpful! Would like to take another class with him if offered. 🙂

- Yuting

It was a lot of fun, chef Malik was great.

- Jasmine

Had a great time with Chef Malik. He clearly loves teaching and his enthusiasm was contagious. Food tasted great as well!

- Camilo

Chef Malik was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I enjoyed learning new techniques and flavor combinations in his class. I never knew pasta dough could be so versatile. Awesome class!

- Michelle

This class we definitely an enjoyable experience! Chef Malik made the process easy enough to recreate at home without all the fancy tools! If you are looking to try something new or have a light and fun time, I would highly recommend!

- Zhane

I loved the pasta making class. The instructions were clear and the experience gave me confidence. I would take another course with Chef Malik.

- B

Chef Malik was awesome. We had a very enjoyable evening

- Victor

Had a fantastic evening! Pasta was great and very easy to follow instruction. If you’re looking for a fun night out with some great food and good company, this is it!

- Emily

It was a small class but that made it feel like a more intimate experience which was perfect for our date night.

- Adam

Amazing!! If you’re a normal person (not a snob) that’s just looking to have a good night out, date night, etc. and learn some useful skills/recipes that you can easily bring back home and replicate then this is the class for you!! THE Chef Malik is very personable and makes things REALLY simple! He made sure that each step of the way we understood so that we could do it on our own! 10/10 recommend taking any class with chef Malik! Like I mentioned at the beginning, come into it with an open mind and willing to learn. There were others in the class who seemed to already think they knew better than the professional chef… Don’t be that guy lol

- Harrison

a great time

- Trisha

What a great experience! I’d recommend anyone looking for a great evening of good cooking, eating, and fun, book with Chef Malik!!

- Terrelle

Very personable guy and fun to learn from!

- Jason

Chef Malik created a great experience. Learned how to make pasta from scratch, along with fresh alfredo sauce, and made it very easy and fun. Chef Malik also got some taste of beer to try that would pair well with the pasta. It was an enjoyable class that I would recommend to anyone who would want to have an enjoyable experience.

- Dennis

Chef Malik was knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely take another class with him.

- Tana

Great experience. Loved that we made the sauce as well as the pasta

- Diane

The "sauce boss" was great!

- Dawn

Chef Malik was awesome! A great hands on and easy expierence! Perfect date idea!

- SAMUEL

We love Chef Malik! Always does an awesome job!!!!

- Jessica

My daughter and I enjoyed how Chef Malik walked us through the process. He explained how our pasta dough should look and how to fix a problem. My only suggestion would I would have liked a printed recipe so that we can make this at home. Will definitely look for other classes!

- Christa

Great experience

- Kaitlyn

We had a great time! Loved Chef Malik! He made it super easy and we definitely plan on making our own pasta at home!

- Ashley

Chef Malik was a lot of fun and the class was a fun day date!

- Deena

Was not what I expected all the way but I still had a fantastic time!

- Kamryn

👍🏾

- Nalini

Informative class, learned a few things, and would take another class.

- MATTHEW

He explained very well & patient with the class, we really enjoyed & will definitely join again, can't wait.........

- India

We had a great time. Chef Malik was fun and very detailed.

- Winter

Chef and his assistant did a good job explaining the material. His instructions were clear and simple. He was sometimes hard to understand but overall did a great job and really seemed to enjoy teaching.

- Chris

Chef Malik is a very good chef. Will return for future classes

- Antoine

The class was entertaining and informative. It would have been better with more supplies (there was one knife for each 4-person table), and better avocados (the ones we had were not ripe and extremely hard to work with). I also suggest having a more central station to demonstrate each step, and dedicated supplies to do so; Chef Malik used our table and our supplies for the first sushi roll, which made it difficult for others to see (unless they stood up and walked over), and deducted from the rolls we could make on our own. Overall we had a good time, so I'm rating this class 4 stars.

- Lesly

My fiance and I really enjoyed our first pasta making class together. The instructions were easy to follow and designed so that we could replicate it at home!

- Breeana

Nice presentation! I learned some great tips for making pasta from scratch and homemade alfredo sauce.

- LaToshya

We had a lot of fun with Chef Malik! Never been to a cooking class before so this was a good first!

- Caroline

My wife is very big on enjoying her experiences, so to take part in this class for the first time and on V-Day was a bit risky. However, she really enjoyed herself!! Chef Malik is very knowledgeable in the kitchen and didn't hesitate to share any cooking tips with us. Food tasted great! I will definitely be using some of his tips in my kitchen! We will be back!

- Marcus

I really enjoyed the experience. The cooking tips were great. I never knew making a homemade pasta dish could be so simple.

- Pamela

Chef Malik was great! Amidst all of the noise. He did a good job of going around to make sure everyone understood how to make the pasta dough...it was great fun, I just wish it wasn’t so loud- maybe in a kitchen too...

- Emeralde

Chef Malok was great. In saying that, the venue was double booked and it made it hard to fully enjoy the experience.

- Nicole

Great chef! Good event. Bad space due to venue booking an event during our class. Not the chefs fault but he made the best of it for us all.

- Bernita

Wasn’t fully prepared for the class and didn’t have a great technique for being trained at culinary school since he gave us unripe avocados and have no warning about safe knife skills.

- Natasha

Fun and entertaining and good teacher, a little disappointed about venue and not enough of ingredients

- Carlos

Chef was cool, very simple and basic class. Probably overpriced for what you do/get.

- Victor

I liked the class but did not love it. I had trouble watching the demo. It would have been better if he were on a raised platform so we could all see him. The class was fun, I enjoyed my table mates. Great cocktails.

- Martha

Class was running late about 15 minutes. Chef explained and was very apologetic. Chef was personable and interactive but the event seemed uncoordinated and unusually disorganized. Tables were sanitized and gloves were used for most of the food interaction.

- Karen

Class was about an hour and we had fun. For the price, we did expect a better structured class with a smaller amount of people. There were about 30 people and the class took place in a bar. It was difficult to hear instructions and see what was going on. Chef Malik handled the crowd as best he could. We weren't clearly instructed on how many rolls we should be making, so we had a lot of extra ingredients left over since we only made 3 rolls (4 pieces each). For the price, we also wouldve expected more materials to be provided. Each pair had one cutting board and one sushi mat, then each table of 4 people shared one knife.

- Narisa

It was good.

- Kristie

Honestly both the sauce and the pasta itself were oversold. Everyone in the class felt the same way. The pasta did not come out delicious for most of us. The texture was questionable and almost inedible. Also, the fact that you decide to have a cooking class for pasta and you don't have access to boiling water is a problem. The water temperature seemed to be a problem, which it should not be given that classpop has been doing these courses for a long time. The pasta and the sauce were not yummy. We all felt that it was bland and the sauce was not as delectable as he had advertised it to be.

- Rani

Was 40 minutes late and said we would get a free cooking class but I never heard anything back about a free class. Burner was not strong enough to boil pasta so the pasta was not great. Sauce was pretty good and he brought shrimp and chicken, so that was nice of him. Excellent entertainment though!

- Forrest

Would have been helpful for him to have a helper so he could speak and someone else could prepare the food

- Erin

Chef Malik was well trained, funny, and kind however the class size was too large for the small space, the materials didn’t seem adequate and prepared ahead of time for us. I also didn’t feel like I have a role after cutting the pasta.

- Kendra

The pasta didn’t turn out well and the sauce wasn’t good. It was hard to hear the directions. The assistant chef greeted everyone in a rude manner.

- Dawn

Not enough seaweed for each person to make two rolls. He was difficult to hear and his demonstration was tough to see so he had to walk around to show the class. Not all his fault but this was poorly executed. Been to another sushi class and I mad so much.! I had take home food. Here, I was so hungry after.

- Maria

It was okay experience.

- Shilpa

Malik was late. Malik didn’t bring enough rice for us to make sushi rolls. Malik didn’t bring the crab meat for the sushi. Malik was not sanitizing. All that, but Malik was friendly and pleasant and we applaud him for trying to run a business but overall he needs to execute what customers are paying for. Will not use classpop again

- Beth

Sauce he made was eh

- Jordan

We had high hopes for this cooking class, but unfortunately it didn’t live up to the $75 per person price. The setup felt a bit disorganized — cutting boards and knives weren’t as clean as we’d hope for in a kitchen environment, and there were a couple of moments that caught us off guard, including a knife being dropped on me during the session. The ingredients were on the simpler side — something even acknowledged during the class which made the price feel hard to justify. There were also a few interactions that felt a little out of place for a professional setting. On the bright side, our group had plenty of laughs throughout — though more from surprise than anything else. It was certainly a memorable experience, just not quite in the way we hoped. If the class were more competitively priced and the professionalism brought up a notch, it could have real potential.

- Carmen

I booked this class as a surprise for my husband since we had been talking about a cooking class for a while but never had done it before. We were both very unhappy with the experience. From start to finish, Chef Malik seemed unorganized and chaotic. It might have been an off day for him, but I don't appreciate feeling like my time and money was wasted.

- Christina

I feel the class was very rushed and not prepared.

- Angela

Chef Malik did the best he could. Chef Malik offered a refund due to the experience and I would like to accept the refund.

- Christa

Chef Malik seemed to mean well so we’ve been back and forth on writing this, but also based on the price felt others should know as too many positive reviews led us to spending money on this class in the first place. First our class was changed from the brewery we wanted to try to a different location the day before. Upon arrival a bartender told us they hadn’t actually seen the chef and someone could probably refund us if he didn’t show. After class was supposed to start one of the bartends saw him still setting up and let us and the other couple know. He was still setting up for another 15 or so minutes and was rather disorganized throughout digging kitchen supplies out of messy kitchen suitcases. It was nice that he brought a variety of seafood to surprise us as a small class however it took forever to make everything. Luckily our kids were staying somewhere overnight and we were not supposed to be home at a specific time as we finished almost an hour late. Chef overshared and used inappropriate jokes. We love a good joke or pun, but they should be professional and probably food related. He also only used warm water and vinegar to clean things and assured us this was fine. Not a single spice beyond garlic was added to the Alfredo and he made an uncomfortable experience videoing us taste it and inquiring if it’s the best we’ve ever had so we sort of felt obligated to say yes. It unfortunately was lacking and our noodles didn’t turn out well either, but that could of been our fault. On the positive side we did not end up with food poisoning and shared the uncomfortable experience with each other and another couple so it seemed a little less bad

- Maura

Chef Malik was incredibly kind but I would not recommend the class or food. The boiled chicken and bland sauce made were not our favorite. I didn’t plan on leaving a review but was promoted by so many emails that I finally gave in. Again chef Malik was very nice the class was just scattered and the food was not very good.

- Carly

He neglected to include my boyfriend and I. We were literally on the other side of the room because he let two people from another class join so we had no materials, dough, or anything set up for us and had to sit far away.

- Sofia

We had a truly amazing time with Chef Malik!

- Lucile

An unforgettable evening! Chef Malik showed us how to prepare a delicious curry using freshly ground spices. Yum!

- Christine

I booked Chef Malik for my boyfriend's birthday, and we were both so impressed. He was very knowledgeable in the kitchen, and the food was stunning. Best of all, however, was Chef Malik's stories and wisdom. Will 100% recommend him to my friends.

- Brenn

Chef Malik — what can I say! My husband and I had a fantastic time. We won't forget this experience any time soon!

- Lavanita

My wife and I would highly recommend Chef Malik — in fact, we've already told a number of our friends about him! Not only did we get to enjoy a fantastic meal, but we had a lot of fun preparing it with him. Thanks so much, Chef!

- David

Chef Malik was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable and a great teacher. Would absolutely recommend and are planning to book another cooking experience with him in the future!

- Jessica

Chef Malik knocked it out of the park with our Valentine's Day evening! We learned SO much about the science behind the foods we were cooking, the history of some of are favorite dishes (we'll never make Caesar Salad in anything but a wooden bowl again!), and about culinary techniques. Everything was delicious. We'd recommend Chef Malik to all our friends and family. We appreciate all the hard work and effort that went into making this night special.

- Sarah

Chef Malik was thoughtful and prepared. The food was good and the conversation was memorable

- jack

The family had a pleasant evening with Chef Malik! Thank you for the hospitality!

- Sean

A+ effort! He was enjoyable to learn from and provided us with a lot of good tips. This class was truly a memory we will carry with us for years. Thanks Chef Malik!
