The couple that cooks together stays together.

My wife enjoyed working with Chef Cindy during the cooking class on June 20th. It was our 28th Anniversary gift to each other, so it was very special cooking a meal and enjoying it together. The class was excellent and the menu options superb. I can't wait to recreate them all at home...especially the Bananas Foster with crepes. The instruction was easy to follow, and the recipes flawless. I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in making delicious Louisiana dishes from home.

Noob made 3 yummy dishes

I had very little cooking experience before this class. So, I was outside of my comfort zone. Last night I made 3 delicious dishes under Chef Greg guidance. I'm very thankful I took the class.

Such a warm, inviting and wonderful cooking class experience. We were a night class led by Chef Cindy and Martha. I felt right at home! Well organized, great dialog, fellow classmates and of course a wonderful meal. This class was the best vacation experience! Thanks, and I'll be back!

Don’t miss out on this amazing experience!

A wonderful experience! Chef Terry is a GREAT teacher. She made everything look so easy! I hope you have Mr. Packy around to help you with your seasoning! He can just look at your dishes and tell you if they need more seasoning! I only wish I could take them both home with me!

Great Find!

We like to find cooking classes when we travel, but sometimes it's hit or miss. This time was definitely a hit! We had a great teacher, chef ricardo, and another couple. He was very informative and funny and made the cooking experience a treat! We made a three-course meal, traditional to New Orleans, and everything was delicious. It was a very fun time and I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to do something different while on vacation, or a date, or a friend's outing.
