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!

Chef Janet was great! Very knowledgeable and accommodating with gluten allergy. Best gluten free potstickers I’ve ever had!
