We really had a great time. The venue was unique and fun! The class set up was organized. The Chef explained each food item in detail. Clearly explained any possible food allergies. Also explained possible options when purchasing items in store which was great. When demonstrating the steps she was visual and explained in detail what to do including safety precautions. It was so much fun. I would love to do another.

Chef Janet is wonderful! Ours was an unusual situation: we received 9 inches of snow in our region, but her part of Chicagoland only had a couple of inches. She was kind and helpful, working with ClassPop! to help us reschedule. Since this class was part of a gift to my 82-year-old father-in-law and the roads improved, we did attend. He had a fabulous time, thanks to Chef Janet. My husband loved the class, too, and now wants to make his own pasta at home. 10/10; Chef Janet for the win!
