Jimmy was great! I learned a lot and am excited to take the skills home with me. I am not good in the kitchen but had fun in his class and felt welcome and he gave me confidence!

We really enjoyed the class! So much so, that we signed up for another one of Chef Jimmy’s classes. It was fun, interesting, and tasty! We are so excited to try what we learned at home. One suggestion is, arrive a little early. We had trouble locating the class at this particular location and there wasn’t signage so we were a few minutes late. Chef Jimmy was great about filling us in on the few details we missed and wonderful about answering questions throughout.

Very good teacher. He’s very patient. He gives you lots of time to practice class with his preprepared ingredients. Don’t think that the first time you try to roll sushi that it’s going to be perfect. Everyone has a different starting point and “failures” are as much a part of learning as successes are (said the school teacher).

Chef Jimmy was actually the best part of this whole dealio. Super nice guy very fun to work with. It was the location and the actual food that took the other two stars away. This is most definitely for novice and and beginner sushi makers "and" lovers. The reality is that it's tough to make good sushi especially in a class environment. We did learn a few new cool tricks which probably would have given 4 stars but the bar setting probably isn't the best for this type of class. We still had fun and met some interesting people. If you're just beginning into sushi and want to learn a bit about it and how to make basic rolls this would be a good class for you.

This was a really fun experience, we both enjoyed it and learned a lot! We are gonna be getting these tools and practicing at home. The sage and brown butter sauce on ravioli was my favorite of the day! Fun to experiment with cutting out different shapes and laminating dough.

Maybe I watch too many rom-coms, or I had different expectations in my head…it was a weird start…everything was premade…we paid 60 dollars to cut up pasta pieces and eat the pasta in lukewarm pasta water. Bruh. It was like a YouTube went 4D.

Chef Jimmy was very thorough and friendly! He was a great teacher with great knowledge. We did his pasta class, and his sauce was amazing!

The class was okay, the chef seemed a little rushed and it felt like he was going through the motions. The room that we did the class in was odd as well and not as pictured.

We had to leave early before the class really got going due to an emergency unfortunately but Jimmy was very nice and helpful for the time we were in class.

Fun class! Chef Jimmy gave very clear instructions and simplified the process. Loved that it was so hands on. Four stars just because of the location- at times it was hard to hear over the loud music being played at the restaurant.

Chef Jimmy was prepared and knowledgeable. He made the best of the situation and space. However, I would not classify our session as a "cooking class" which is what I was expecting. It was more like a cooking demonstration with an opportunity to fold the pasta before it was cooked. Although I was emailed the recipes for the food that was prepared for me and my friends a day or two after the session, I would not say I am confident about preparing the dishes on my own.

We had a lot of fun! Jimmy was very knowledgable on pasta. I would definitely take a class again. That being said, I only gave 3 stars because the facility was not conducive to the size of the class. We had to partner and triple up with other groups; that felt a little strange to be handling someone else's pasta. Jimmy seemed a little unorganized. He had forgotten one of his pasta attachments, so 16-18 people had to share one device. This took a while, so we didn't get to make the sauces that were listed on the class description. Basically we made and boiled pasta. We ate it on pieces of wax paper because there were not any paper plates and there weren't enough forks for everyone. We all have off nights; maybe this was one of them. But, this does not prevent me from trying again! We are looking forward to trying to make our own pasta at home.

Excellent teacher - not just how to cook the food, but also gives the context of the story behind it. Patiently answers questions and is very knowledgeable & competent. Would love to see a continuing pasta series from this chef.

It was a great class with alot of good information. Unfortunately, we seemed to run out of time. I think that either extending by 30min or capping the amount of people at 15 would greatly help the experience, especially because you can't anticipate the amount of questions, but I feel as though that would give a more personalized experience for the entire group. Chef Jimmy had a great attitude and was great to spend time with.

Chef Jimmy is the best! I learned so much about how to make pasta dough, roll it out, and get my pasta ready to be sauced!! He had easy to follow instructions, great tips, and was so professional. We had a blast with him and I can't wait to take another class. Thanks Chef!!!

Chef Le was not just a high school chef mentor for me, he was the chef mentor for me. I cannot say enough good things about him, he pushed me when I needed it and gave only encouraging advice to help me get to where I needed to be. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without his help and support.

Chef Jimmy is by far one of the most experienced culinary instructors I have ever encountered. As an instructor, I find that Chef encompasses the right amount of patience, skill, knowledge, and enthusiasm it takes to teach a class or 1-on-1. He is a pleasure to learn from and has a great sense of humor. Learning a new skill or recipe can be daunting but if Chef Jimmy is teaching, he makes it easy and fun.
