RecommendedMardi Gras School of Cooking was a great way to enjoy dinner and learn how to cook that delicious NOLA cuisine. The history of the food was shared and that was wonderful as well with our great Chef. I highly recommend this evening to anyone. I have already used the knife tips at home.

We took the roux class and Chef Mark was our instructor. Chef Mark was great! He is very knowledgeable and friendly. Each couple had their own pot/pan and made gumbo, étouffée, and bananas foster. The environment is professional, yet relaxed. We felt comfortable and asked any questions we had. We will return for another class here when we are in NOLA. I highly recommend this cooking school. Thanks for a great class! We feel confident we can succeed in making our own dishes with roux as the base!

Everything about the Mardi Gras School of Cooking exceeded our expectations. Chef Preston was amazing. He is an excellent teacher of not only technique and cooking style but of the history behind the food. He is also a warm and engaging human who you can't help but connect with during the class. Don't miss the chance to take this class. 5 Stars!
