Ms. Kelly was a very nice and knowledgable instructor. I would give 5 stars but there were too many people in the class, spreading her attention thin. There was only one cooking station, so people had to wait in line cook the dumplings. Also, we were provided single use disposable plastic forks and cups whic is harmful to the environment.

This class was an absolute blast. Chef Kelly has a true passion for cooking and teaching! She provided all the materials needed to make delicious dumplings. It was a really fun date idea and would recommend to anyone who loves dumplings and want to learn to make them!

We chose this class because we could not use the gift card my nephew gave us for Christmas on premium classes, which totally limited our options. Had he known this was the case he would have looked elsewhere. The class itself was a total disappointment. 20+ people is too many when you only have one pot and one frying pan. We were fortunate to be in the first group she demonstrated wrapping dumplings to or we would have been there all night. Chef Kelly demonstrated 6 ‘wraps’ in rapid fire succession and moved on to the next group. My wife and I struggled to remember what was shown and never had Chef Kelly come back to help. We did our best and headed to the pot to keep the night moving on. I left having no better understanding of preparing dumplings than when I arrived. The description of this event is misleading. The filling is premade, water to ‘seal’ wrappers was filled “after” her demonstration, no napkins on the table to wipe your hands, and it was so loud you could barely hear her very brief instructions. I could learn more on YouTube. Don’t waste your money here.

I loved the venue, I loved how small the class was too. Kelly was really personable and informative. An enjoyable experience and not too hard to make. The food was delicious, Kelly I would love to have the recipie for the vegetarian dumplings. A good time had by all. One suggestion though, we only had a class of 11, and with only one steamer and on skillet, there were some of us waiting a long time to cook our food, I would suggest getting another burner, oan and steamer

This was a wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Chef Kelly really likes helping people learn how to cook. She very patient and answered all questions. When we were making the stuff pasta, she would help each student improve their technique individually. It was fun having a hands on experience in which the whole class helped each other out. I am looking forward to taking more classes from her

What a super experience! Chef Kelly was knowledgeable & fun to cook with and a great teacher! She made everything easy to understand and easy to cook by being well prepared. She surprised us at the end of the meal by serving us the elegant meal we just cooked. Lovely end to a fun afternoon!
