Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this knife skills class:

The same basic cutting techniques are used by all the master chefs across the globe. Knowing how to use kitchen knives safely and competently can lead to greater ease and joy in the kitchen as well as allowing you to expand your culinary repertoire.

Join us for this two-hour hands-on class with Chef Maria as she leads you through the basics of using knives like a professional chef. Your new skillset will then be put into play preparing Salsa Fresca and fresh-made Guacamole which we’ll enjoy while discussing the pros and cons of the various types of knives available on the market and how to correctly sharpen a knife. You also get to take home all the ingredients chopped to make a stir fry or simply bake them. 

No experience is necessary, and all equipment, aprons, and ingredients will be provided. Just bring your enthusiasm for learning!

    Mixed feelings - the instructor, Grant, was great and I learnt a lot, but I was very upset with the preparation. They overbooked the class an I felt like I was fighting with other participants for vegetables to cut, which there were not enough. I give the instructor five stars and the organization one star for an overall rating of 3

    The instructor was very kind but the class started 15 minutes late, then she had us go around and introduce ourselves and give a fruit/vegetable that started with the second letter of our first name (which is absurd). Felt like Freshman orientation not cake decorating. Also would've liked to learn more. But the cake was great and I definitely learned a few things.

    There was no sign to indicate where the class was taking place. It was a confusing start. The instructions were too technical for something that should have been more simple. There was no way to actually see the demonstration - which was very detail oriented. There should have been an overhead projector for the size of the class - so everyone can see the actual decorating instructions. Then we were rushed to finish the cake and get out of the venue - it was very awkward to have the instructor get into a shouting match with the manager of the space regarding the end point for the class. The entire experience was very unprofessional, unpleasant and not a very informative class. The only take-away I got from this course was that I can go get everything at Michael's. Terrible. I would NOT recommend this class to anyone.

    The Instructor was wonderful! The tools provided and direction given were perfect. My only complaint was the description suggested that there would be drinks or wine. It turns out this class didn't provide that because it's location was not in a bar/restaurant. It wasn't a deal breaker for me in any way, I would have just like to have known... or at least it should not have been advertised as such.

    Really enjoyed this class! The set up of the class was not ideal for me though. All instructions were cued verbally And we weren't able to watch the instructor first before trying the techniques on our own. While the teacher was clear with verbal cues, and did come around table to table if requested, it was occasionally hard to follow as I'm a visual learner. I also felt like there wasn't enough icing to go around and we ended up not having quite enough to decorate our final cakes with. It would have been nice to have some additional options to decorate our cake with at the end (i.e. Other icing colors, sprinkles, etc) Otherwise, I took home some useful techniques, a yummy cake and for the price, it was a fun time!
