Chef Mimi is so sweet! She is a great instructor with beginner's and experienced people. She made this experience fun and knowledgeable. I look forward to attending additional courses and booking private corporate events for team building events.

The class was fun and the pad thai we cooked was amazing! Chef Mimi does a nice job walking through the steps of the meal and demonstrating techniques. Would highly recommend!

Great time !!!! Very fun , noodles turned out great !!!!

Chef Mimi was pleasant and I’m sure she is a knowledgeable chef however the venue was way too small, dark and filthy to host a cooking class. I would recommend a commercial kitchen for future classes or at least a location that can accommodate the class size and is clean. The ingredients and equipment were subpar. The pasta machine left black grease marks on the pasta and Parmesan from a container and jarred garlic for the alfredo? Ick.

Therese

There were too many people for the venue. The small tables were not conducive for the cooking tasks. Too many people to get appropriately helped for everyone being first time pasta makers. By the time everyone got noodles cooked, then Alfredo sauce was made by Mmimi a lot of peoples noodles were cold then got warm sauce on them. Knowing the number of people registered there was not enough salad for everyone.

Bruce

Chef Mimi delivers an excellent class in pasta making. Despite the class size, she maneuvered the tight confines of the venue and assisted everyone to get great results from everyone. She also clearly demonstrated making Alfredo sauce, which was excellent.

Michelle

05 Jan 2026

Mimi's Class was so fun, and so easy to learn. My boys gave it to me as a Christmas present that we did together, made my heart full to be together. We definitely will be signing up for another class this spring to do together.

Alexandra

04 Jan 2026

I took my mom to this class and we had a fabulous time. Chef Mimi was so welcoming and patient with everyone. She really took the time to help everyone and show them the correct way to make fettuccine alfredo. Awesome class!

I want to give this class so many more stars. Chef Mimi is so so kind and wonderful! Go take a class with her, she is so amazing!!

My gf and I had so much fun! The Pad Thai was so simple to make and really was incredible. Wonderful experience, we will be booking with her again!

Jordyn

17 Jan 2025

Mimi and her team were very kind, but the class took place in a local brewery. The power kept tripping out from all the skillets running and it was very unorganized. Very limited direction/unclear instructions through entire class.

Stacy

We had a great time and the food was exceptional!

Josie

It was a great class!!!! Mimi is a wonderful teacher. The Pad Thai was amazing… so delicious. It was such a fun class… would highly recommend it 😊

Joseph

Mimi what a fun night! We enjoyed spending time meeting new people and learning the key ingredients in pad thai. You were so helpful and the recipe was beginner friendly. We'll definitely bring some more friends and see you in Woodbury!

Sarah

We had such a fun time and the food was delish!!

Jeff

Fun class! Mimi was great and provided some good prep and cooking tips. The pad thai was awesome, and we had enough for a late dinner with leftovers for lunch the next day.

Jessica

Our team was so excited to our nonprofit staff retreat with Chef Mimi. We had a great time collaborating in our cooking class.

Daniel

23 Aug 2024

So much fun!

Lilly

23 Aug 2024

Fun class for learning a new recipe and you get to eat it afterwards and bring home the leftovers. Mimi is a nice teacher and makes dietary accommodation for all who need it.

Rebecca

22 Aug 2024

Chef Mimi was an exceptional teacher. My fear of cooking Thai food is gone! It is so delicious and we made it ourselves! Nice location with the variety of drinks and desserts!

Lori

16 Feb 2024

As much as a wonderful person, Chef Mimi is to me, the class was very disorganized not properly set up in the location is not a great spot to host a cooking class. Not because of the chef but everything associated with it I would not go back. A lot of the supplies seemed not clean or broken.

Jessica

13 Feb 2024

I’m not really sure how to leave this review because Mimi is very sweet, and probably a great cook, but the entire class was a mess, and even worse, very unsanitary. When we arrived to class, there were no supplies set up. It took 30 minutes past the class start time for Mimi to pass out the equipment to everyone.The equipment was dirty and the venue was not suitable for this class as there was no kitchen - no accessible water or a place to wash your hands or supplies. Making the pasta was fun but the warehouse environment, working on dirty folding tables, made the pasta unappealing. By the time the pasta was made I wondered how we would boil it. Mimi’s solution was to grab a bucket and get hot water from an unknown back room to distribute. I used a plastic bowl to scoop water from the bucket to a skillet (a skillet to boil water?!) in order to boil my pasta. We were given dirty rags to clean our equipment as we went. All this time we were provided no instruction. We constantly had to call Mimi over to ask her what to do next. It was this way for every group there. By the end we didn’t even want to eat the pasta. She provided no recipes and everyone left hungry. I’m so glad this was a gift otherwise I would have been angry to have paid $120 for this class - if you can call it that. If you purchase this class please don’t come hungry and come with patience and no expectations.

Ellen

Fantastic teacher. Very clear and concise with directions. Laid out the plans and executed. Made it all super fun with a personal touch to everyone there.

David

09 Feb 2024

We had a great time, and the food was delicious too! Chef Mimi did an excellent job explaining each step, including what we should look for and why we're doing it.

Abibu

09 Feb 2024

We were unable to attend because we were unable to gain access to the build and had no way of contacting the chief. We would like a refund.

Krista

09 Feb 2024

This experience was incredibly unorganized. The Chef arrived late after the class was already postponed by 1 hour. Due to this we started half an hour late. We were not given all the supplies we were needed and had to use broken camping stoves, plastic spoons in cooking which melted exposing us to dangerous chemicals in the food, and utensils that were clearly not cleaned and sanitized. On top of all of this, no clear instructions were given so I left the class not having learned anything. I would not recommend this experience.

Joshua

05 Feb 2024

Mimi was incredibly nice and answered any questions we had. Being my first cooking class, didn’t know what exactly to expect. But felt like all we did was follow a recipe on paper, which I could’ve done in my own house. I thought as a class we’d being cooking things together going step by step but was more of a free for all, which personally I was not a fan of

Anne

02 Feb 2024

Wasn’t able to attend. As couldn’t bring nephew under 21. Dumb rule. Kids can come to bars with adults. Won’t use classpop ever again. Paid for class, so you are welcome.

Shelly

The location and time change the day before. I received an email the evening before, but with scams being rampant I was not sure if this email was really true . I tried several times to contact classpop. I called the original location and they confirmed there was ni class. I did not sin up to drive into downtown Minneapolis. I am so disappointed in how this has been handled .

Lewis

21 Jan 2024

Mimi was great, very friendly, helpful and able to maneuver the complexities of doing the class in a brewery 🥳!

DaJa

21 Jan 2024

My daughter and I really enjoyed ourselves and not to mention the food was excellent!! I’ll definitely be cooking again with Chef Mimi in the future!

Tina

20 Jan 2024

It was a lot of fun and the food we made was delicious. It was not the class we signed up for but we got an extra class because of the mistake. Still was great.

Paula

14 Jan 2024

We had a blast in Mimi's class. She was really good about making sure everyone was able to complete their dish, and was great at giving practical tips and tricks that I can use in other recipes at home now!

Lindsay

12 Jan 2024

Chef Mimi was so knowledgeable and has great energy! We had a blast taking her class and our food was delicious. My only criticism was our equipment did not work properly. Would take a class with her again in the future.

katie

03 Jan 2024

The wine bar was cute, however not ideal for a cooking class location. We had a great time. Food was delicious and would definately make it at home.

Carden

02 Jan 2024

Chef Mimi was amazing! She is a great instructor and made learning fun. I had no experience prior to our class and she was great at showing me how to do new things in the kitchen. We will be booking with her again! :)

Laura

20 Nov 2023

Friendly and experienced!

Paolo

19 Nov 2023

Chef Mimi was very nice but the environment was not what I expected when paying for a cooking class. We did not have any cooking equipment or get to help with the sauces. We were given an egg, flour, and a little plastic bowl to mix together to make the pasta. That was about the extent of what we got to experience. I was hoping it would be more hands-on, in a kitchen environment, and that we would get more than just a couple small samples of pasta. Overall, still enjoyed it but it was not as elaborate and not the cooking experience I anticapted.

Jack

19 Nov 2023

This was so much fun!! Great venue, great lessons, great conversation - highly suggest if you’re looking for a cute date night, friend night, or simply want to learn on your own! Chef Mimi killed it and I hope to take another class from her soon!

Sinead

29 Oct 2023

The location was tough (No12Cider) -hard to get in and out of our seats, hard to see and hear what was going on, making pasta on old wooden tables that were close quarters, and didn't have space to lay the pasta out on. That said, Mimi and Nabil were both wonderful -warm, encouraging, knowledgable and fun. My friend and I had a good experience, and learned a lot, but I likely wouldn't sign up for a class at that location again.

Michelle

29 Oct 2023

Mimi was wonderful and we had a great time making new friends. Thank you, Mimi!

Nic

Mimi was friendly and informative

Andrew

13 Sep 2023

Our class with Mimi was absolutely WONDERFUL! No clue how we lucked out with this, but we ended up with a super small class so we got all kinds of one-on-one attention. Even without that, though, it would still have been amazing. We did the pad Thai class and it is so incredibly accessible and truly easy to do! The recipes are super clear on their own, but Mimi also explains everything so well, provides examples when needed, answers any questions you might have, but also gives you the freedom to make the recipe your own and tailor it to your own tastes. She’s super encouraging - you can take this class no matter what your cooking skill level is and feel totally ok. One of the best parts was that you actually get to cook! Hands on prep work, actual cooking, and then the best part, eating! Even though the location our class was at wasn’t a kitchen setting, Mimi had everything we needed to be able to do all the tasks. It was really awesome to feel that sense of ownership over the final product. We really, genuinely had the best time and are already planning ahead to future classes with her. Highly, highly recommend learning with her!

Susan

Disappointed in the experience. We did not receive a recipe to follow. Mimi td.ua to go to her website for the recipe. It felt like she didn't give a recipe to self promote her website. NO recipes were there wither. After the class, Mimi said she forgot to bring peanut butter. Apparently it goes in the sauce. We would have known that if recipes were handed out instead of an optional grocery list

Tyler

29 Aug 2023

This is not a cooking class where you will learn much. It's pretty much self taught and learn how to problem solve type of a class. Like other comments, there is not a kitchen to use. In order to wash your hands, you have to go outside into a bathroom. Fortunately, our class did not blow any fuses. There were not very clear directions on what the steps were, as the recipe provided does not give any "measurements". It literally says, cook chicken, cut veggies, mix ingredients for sauce. I felt like every group around us, including ours was constantly looking for advice or directions.... like a bunch of chickens running around aimlessly. With 23-25 people trying to get the recipe, Mimi was stretched thin with her attention. It felt like all 5 groups were winging the recipe and hoping for the best. This is definitely not better than takeout pad thai. Be prepared for some chaos! Hopefully you get a decent knife to cut with... Hopefully you already know the basic of cutting vegetables, using knives properly, and the proper sanitary precautions to take with chicken... because... well... you'll be in line asking for help like most people if you don't.

Chef Mimi was very sweet and new her stuff. However, there were some issues. The tables we used for making the pasta were not cleaned. The venue was not right for a cooking class as we kept blowing fuses trying to cook the food. Chef Mimi almost gave up on cooking the food completely until someone said that we would all really like to eat as none of us had eaten dinner yet because we had signed up for a cooking class. We all worked together to get the cooking devices on different circuits so we would not pop a fuse again. It would have been much better with hot plates enough for each couple or trio, and real pots. There was only running water in the bathrooms, so cleaning and handwashing were a struggle. We were also expected to all cook our handmade pasta in the same pots at the same time, meaning we were all sharing pasta that everyone's hands had been in. I know we were going to boil it, but we all really wanted to eat the pasta we had made. For the price, the ingredients were also lackluster. For the price, I would have expected olive oil and pasta flour to be used, but we used corn oil and bleached all purpose store brand flour. Would also have been great to have recipes for anything we made, but they were not provided. Like I said, Chef Mimi is great and really knows her stuff. I hope she can choose a venue that makes sense for a cooking class, improve the sanitary conditions of the workspace and food, use high quality ingredients in her classes, purchase equipment so we can actually cook the food, and provide recipes.

Mimi is great, fun class! We took my mom and she really enjoyed it. We’re trying to persuade Mimi to come to AZ this winter and do a few classes for us there. :)

Kimberly

Chef Mimi was outgoing, funny, and informational!

Amy

26 Jul 2023

Mimi was great , organized and engaging. However, the brewery was not a good place to hold the class. No kitchen and the hot plates kept blowing the fuses, which was very frustrating. We had to find outlets out on the main room to use. Plus the small room we were on got hot with 13 people in it. She has classes at other facilities. I would try them.

Ruth

25 Jul 2023

Mimi was excellent to work with. Knowledgeable and engaging.

Harry

A great evening, highly informative and well presented. Certainly worth doing.

Andrea

Chef Mimi was detailed and involved everyone in the class. I had a great time making pasta AND learning delicious sauce recipes. Will definitely take another class in the near future. Thanks!

Nathan

12 Jun 2023

Great experience and I learned so much. If you want to learn something new or improve your cooking this is perfect. You can ask all the questions you need and having an in-person instruction makes things easier to learn fast.

Austin

Fun class, really recommend.

JANICE

Mimi is great! We enjoyed learning how to properly make egg rolls and samosas which were amazing. Everything fresh and understanding the spices used was very helpful! Great fun

Denise

I enjoyed the teacher and class. A couple of suggestions would make this class better: 1) wear a microphone so people could hear your instructions better, 2) at the beginning explain the entire process so students can understand the steps, 3) have an assistant to help answer questions. Thank you.

Kelley

The group really enjoyed the class!

beth

10 Feb 2023

While Chef's enthusiasm and tips were great, I'm dissuaded from taking another class because way too much time was wasted by having 22 attendees stand in line, multiple times during the session, for supplies that should have been provided at each table.

Stephanie

09 Feb 2023

Mimi was very nice and knowledgeable about the pasta and Alfredo sauce making process! It tasted amazing.

Elizabeth

Mimi made the experience fun and easy! Highly recommend.

Matthew

18 Jan 2023

Chef Mimi is amazing! So much fun, will learn from her again in the near future. Venue was nice, but no kitchen, so we didn't get to cook there, had to bring home to prepare noodles. Still had lots of fun!

Kris

17 Jan 2023

The setting of a brewery/cidery is not ideal but Mimi did well with what we had to work with. It was a bit difficult to have to be working on our pasta and watching her create the sauce at the same time since we weren't in a kitchen setting where we could also make the sauce and do it altogether. Felt like our attention had to be in two places at once.

Cristina

27 Dec 2022

The teacher herself was great and had a wealth of information to share. We had a really fun date night all said and done! I do think that class pop should make it more clear which locations do or don’t have kitchens. All of the MN brewery or winery locations do not have kitchens. The good news is we got to bring home the pasta to make for our children tomorrow. (The teacher brought an already cooked dish for us to eat there)

Julia

27 Dec 2022

Mimi was great but the location was terrible. I wouldn't have signed up if I knew in advance that we wouldn't have a kitchen. Great job Mimi!

Sarabeth

27 Dec 2022

Chef Mimi was energetic, kind, and brilliant. I've made the pasta a few times since the class. It was great to have guidance on pasta making, which has always intimidated me. The limiting factor was the venue--very cute cidery, but not a good spot for a cooking class. We made our pasta at high top tables and took it home to cook ourselves. Chef Mimi had prepared the sauce and pasta for us to eat that night.

Lucas

15 Dec 2022

Was a good time, my only recommendation is to get a microphone. So people in the back of the class can hear

Emily

13 Dec 2022

Chef Mimi was so nice and personable. It ended up being a small crowd, and she individualized it for us, let us take home a bunch of leftovers and had fun.

Jean

20 Sep 2022

Chef Mimi taught a pasta-making class in my condo building for 14 ladies! We learned a lot, ate great food and enjoyed ourselves. Chef Mimi was responsive and exuded wonderful energy. She even threw in some extra appetizers and pasta dish.

Melissa

20 Sep 2022

Mimi is a sweet person and friendly. However, the venue wasn’t good for a cooking class. The music was too loud and it made it difficult to hear. Also- we didn’t get to participate- we just watched a demonstration. The food was good but I like more hands on classes.

Janae

06 Aug 2022

It was a very fun class. Mimi was very nice and helpful. I thought we were making both recipes, and not just one. There weren't enough frying pans for the group. 1 pan didn't get up to the recommended temperature. The Samosas were AMAZING!

Ann

05 Aug 2022

Mimi was very personable and knowledgeable with the food topic we were making. She gave great tips with how we can adjust the recipes at home. She made it easy for beginners to feel comfortable.

Sarah

22 Jul 2022

Not at all hands on and only a taste to eat. Not what we expected when we signed up or paid. Very disappointed

Ellie

22 Jul 2022

Mimi was very friendly and cheerful. We were disappointed that this was not very hands on and we didn’t get to eat a full meal as we expected when paying the price we did. It was hard to hear due to the DJ at the brewery we were at. We did feel that we learnt something that will be useful in our home cooking.

Hadis

16 Jun 2022

Great class! Very delectable meal and enjoyable Chefs. I will definitely attend another class by Chef Mimi.

Chris

21 Mar 2022

Loved the Samosa's we made. I have already done this again in our air fryer. Also, is a great way to spend time with friends and family cooking at home. And who doesn't love a good egg roll!

Chris

21 Mar 2022

The salad in this recipe was amazing. Just like the Greek dressing they have at Noodles! Loved the recipe and another go to for cooking chicken!

Kim

13 Mar 2022

Mimi was great at demonstrating, giving us realistic tips for when we’re in our own kitchens & watching to help us learn/practice the techniques! The food was delicious & tasted so fresh!

Dain

12 Jan 2022

This class was rather disappointing. There were not enough ingredients and utensils for everyone. The recipe guides did not match what was actually made, it all felt rather impromptu. The knives provided were horribly dull and inappropriate for the likes of dicing ginger. There was very minimal actual instruction, other than on folding (which was good), not that really anything was needed. The sauces were just skipped... The recipes in general were overly simple, tasteless, and too similar to each other. I feel like I learned less than just reading a recipe off google. The shared experience was still pleasant, and Mimi was also pleasant enough, and Luce Line was a nice location but in general it was not at all worth it.

Cathy

11 Jan 2022

Wonderfully fun class! I’m so happy that I joined. I would love to attend more of Mimi’s classes.

Mimi is easy going and helpful and she shares delicious, easy to cook recipes with her students. She is very hands on and makes sure everyone feels welcome and included.
