    Anonymous review on 8/10/2016
    Good quick demo class to take during lunch hour from work. They have different recipes every class and the one I went to was on braised pork which was delicious! I also appreciate the opportunity to ask related questions I've always had from my own cooking experience. I think this could be something that you would take your co-worker to as well.
