Chef James is a culinary virtuoso, particularly skilled in crafting mouthwatering pasta dishes and the most delicious mushrooms you'll find in San Francisco. His ability to source fresh, local ingredients from the farmers market is truly impressive. I highly recommend experiencing his culinary magic for an unforgettable dining adventure.

Class was supposed to be 4:00 PT/ 7:00 ET, yet started at 4:00 ET. So I was unable to make it due to the scheduling of class pop and them having incorrect information. Luckily. I hopped on just in case to check around 4:30 ET and was able to catch half the class. Disappointed in the scheduling but seemed like a great class for what I was able to watch
