The only thing better than eating delicious NOLA food is cooking it and savoring it! Chef David is a rock star. Every question thrown at him, related or unrelated to our meal, he embraced and gave a thoughtful reply. I was traveling alone and felt the love of the cooking class. Just do it!

Hi, Joanne! We are pleased to hear you had an excellent experience with us! Thank you for sharing your review.

I learned a lot of great techniques as well as delicious recipes. Chef Barry was very patient and friendly. His recommendations for other places to enjoy the food in New Orleans was very welcome. I liked that we got to prepare the food, not just watch a demonstration. It was fun!

Hi Lynn! We are pleased to hear you had a fun experience. Thanks for the great review!

Chef Mark was great, the atmosphere was fun and the food phenomenal. We had a great time with our class but have equally enjoyed using the recipes provided at home. We look forward to another class the next time we’re in New Orleans.

Chef David held a wonderful class. It was a class where my son and I learned to cook some traditional New Orleans dishes: BBQ shrimp, jambalaya, and chocolate bread pudding. We love the history behind each recipe along with chef David’s passion for cooking. He was very informative and made the class fun and interesting. The best part was eating all the yummy food which was honestly some of the best of our trip. It created a great memory of our trip to New Orleans and we will make it a tradition on future vacations to take c... read more
