Praktischer Cajun-Roux-Kochkurs in New Orleans

It was an amazing time and a great experience. The staff was incredible. It was a lot fun! Come hungry, you'll eat every bite!

Chef Sassy was not only a great instructor, but also, a very good storyteller of New Orleans food history. My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our time in the kitchen. We were in a small group setting which made things easier for instruction and assistance. We had some food allergies in our group and the staff was well prepared for their arrival and was very cautious about any cross contamination. We also appreciated the variety of beverages available to drink while we enjoyed our class. The beverages ranged from bottled water, soft drinks, variety of beer and wine. The Oak Leaf cabernet sauvignon was delightful. Overall, it was a great learning experience and would recommend the Roux class to anyone interested.

Chef Barry provided an outstanding cooking experience!! He was so well organized. The kitchen and dining areas were lovely. He had all of the food and cooking utensils set up. Throughout the food prep and cooking, his instructions were excellent. He was so pleasant and conversational. There were six of us in the class and we had a wonderful time getting to know each other and enjoying the food we prepared. We learned a lot! The food dishes (gumbo, shrimp etouffee and bananas foster) were truly delicious!! Highly recommend this experience!!

Raymond was great and enjoyed his instruction very much! He answered lots of questions for our group of four and was very patient, yet up beat. I cook regularly at home and this was not too elementary, especially if you've never made shrimp ettoutfee or a Cajun roux. I burned my roux at home prior to this class so it was so helpful to me, restoring my confidence to give it another go. Come hungry. I had no idea there would be a two course meal. Ask for the secret Raymonds Rice ;)

We brought our q5 ueat old son and we had a great time. We made our own food under the eye of a chef and it was the best food we ate in New Orleans.

We had a blast at the cooking class and Chef Raymond was the best! The food we made was delicious, we had so much fun and cant wait to make it all again at home.

Sassy was very good. Had a fun time learning to cook Cajun

Great to experience! Raymond was the best:)

My daughter and I took the Roux class at Mardi Gras School of Cooking with Chef Sassy, and it was such a fabulous time! Chef Sassy has this laid-back, friendly energy that made the whole class feel relaxed and fun, not intimidating at all. She didn’t just teach us the roux — she threw in extra tips and tricks along the way, including her method for never-fail rice. We went straight home, tried it, and she was right — best rice we’ve ever made! It was such a great bonding experience for my daughter and me, and we walked away with real skills we’re already using at home. As a bonus, it feels wonderful to support a small, women-owned business doing such a great job. We can’t wait to come back for another class — highly recommend, especially if you get Chef Sassy!

This is a fabulous class. While we are foodservice professionals, we were impressed with all the techniques we were taught. We didnt want to leave. We wanted to take all the classes but we couldn't make the time. Next time, for sure!
