We booked a cooking class through Classpop and had such a great time learning to cook! The place had a parking lot so parking wasn’t a problem. We loved that after the cooking class, we were giving enough time to enjoy our food and even had leftovers to bring home. 10/10 recommend! Thanks for making my partner’s birthday so memorable!

Extremely disappointed. I was promised that gnocchi would be taught, which was the entire reason why we purchased this class. Chef Roddy confirmed the day before the class that we would be taught how to make gnocchi. Not only were we not, but when I messaged chef Roddy about our disappointment he never responded. Shows his true character. I don’t recommend this class.

Had a wonderful time making pasta, and learn some tricks of the trade. I made pasta, I ate pasta, I had a wonderful time.
