Recently took the sourdough bread class with chef Todd. WOW! What an incredible experience. I've…read morebeen intimidated to make my own sourdough bread because there's a lot that can go either wrong or right. So I signed up so that I can get the skills to feel confident enough to do it on my own. Chef Todd is so patient and is a really great instructor. He gave us his contact information in case we have follow up questions. In class I didn't have as many questions, but once I started to go through the process on my own that's when I had tons. Chef Todd walked me through troubleshooting my loaves and on my third attempt... Success! I even made my own butter to go with the most perfect sourdough loaf! It truly is an exciting experience making your first real loaf of sourdough bread. I can honestly say that it is a labor of love, but oh is it so worth it! I can never go back to store bought. Definitely worth taking this class!

SO MUCH FUN!! Thanks to Yelpers for suggesting this place -- we had a cozy group to make a St…read morePatrick's Day meal. The chef and staff were excellent -- helped everyone prepare their dish and provided lots of great hands-on tips as we prepared the meal. The facility is top notch with great equipment, and the ingredients we used were very fresh. You can bring your own beverages and the best part is sharing the meal afterward that everyone came together to prepare, which was delicious! I will definitely be back to learn some new and interesting dishes. I highly recommend this class for all skill levels.

First time in and I am a fan! It's a market with a deli inside. You take a number for the deli and…read moretheir menu is insane with a bunch of options!! Definitely hard to choose but we settled with Angry Joe and Grandma Gerry. While waiting for our sandwiches to be made, we walked around the market and picked up hot crushed peppers and peanut butter homemade cookies!! Everything tasted delicious and super fresh and service is awesome! You're taken care of asap and the wait is not long for either the deli or the checkout!! Will definitely visit again to try more sandwiches!!

Visitation Rights: Been to this place couple of times…read more Background On Last Visit: Decided to get a quick lunch before heading off to Knotts Berry Farm over the weekend. Credit Cards: They're accepted. Restrooms: There's no restrooms available. Location/Parking: Located next to Denny's. Parking can be found along Huntington Dr. or you can park in the rear. Ambiance/Decor: It's basically an Italian grocery store will with a deli section. Order Of Operations: 1) Get a ticket 2) Wait for your number to be called 3) State your wants and needs, 4) Receive your wants and needs, and head to the register to pay for your stuff. 5) Exit shop and either go home or eat at their communal tables located in the back of the shop in the parking lot. Service: Service is pretty good. They're friendly and informative about their shop. Food comes out at a decent time. Sandwich Of Choice: So far I'v had the Grandpa Joe sandwich, which consists of capocollo, mortadelia, dry salame, provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, sliced pepperoncini and oil dressing. Sandwich is quite quite excellent. The protein and other ingredients tastes fresh. Just a reminder that the cured meats and cheese can be a little salty. Claro's For Thought: I'll definitely come back to try more sandwiches and desserts.

I can't believe I'm the first to review! The pressure! :)…read more I can't say enough good things about this place...the staff and the quality of classes they offer. I first signed up my daughter through the city of Glendora park and rec program for their Jr. Chef class last fall. (Although since then I just sign up directly with them because it is a little cheaper to sign up directly.) My daughter loooves the teacher (Chef Danae). She was so genuinely caring with all of the little ones and my little one really enjoyed learning how to cook and making something she could eat. (The teacher always commented on what a good eater she is..I laughed because she normally isn't when I cook...I guess I will have to let her cook herself from now on!). Before that class I searched high and low online to find anything about the fine arts academy, but couldn't find anything so I signed up and crossed my fingers. The classes are held in the first Christian Church. It is an older building, nothing fancy, but I am ok with that because the quality of the instructors is nothing short of superb! They are very patient (saintly patient) and really care about each kid. Her cooking class had around 8 kids or so and they all got the attention they needed. I was so impressed I signed my daughter up for another cooking class (this time it was chef summer...equally amazing!). I also signed her up for the hand stitching class. Since I can barely sew a button on I wanted to make sure my child didn't suffer the same fate. :). the teacher (Nilda) reminds me of a young grandmother type...patiently helping the kids (only two in the class) learn how to thread the needle, sew lines, sew buttons, etc. The kids always have smiles when the class is done and you can tell they are proud of learning these skills. (I think they are going to make a little stuffed toy by the end of the class but I'm not sure). I also signed my daughter up for the drawing class...there are around 8 kids and it seems to be a really good class that they use a lot of different mediums and the teacher seems to be very knowledgable about how to teach basic and not so basic drawing classes. (I wish I had time myself to take one!). The nice thing about the classes is that they accommodate the age ranges listed really well. From the younger ones to the slightly older ones they all seem to be learning and having a good time. Also, all of the kids seem to be really nice kids which is also important to me. (I don't know if that is because parents that enroll their kids in "fine arts" classes tend to be more hands on or not, but whatever the reason, these are kids I wouldn't mind her hanging out with after class. I also took the earring making class and had a lot of fun. It was a two hour class and I probably made 5 sets of earrings. The teacher (also a grandmother type) was very very knowledgable and really patient...made me feel ok asking even basic questions...the age range of the class was probably 14 to 65 and we all had a great time...looking forward to the next jewelry class. I also signed up for the art and music one week summer camp...what a great week! There were only about 15-20 kids and tons of great volunteers...they danced (with top billing instructors) learned music -harmonica or percussion (from mike's guitar), sewed, did ceramics, cooked, created bugs from bowling balls...it was amazing how much they did in only 2 hours a day for a week! It was so nice that the instructors and volunteers got to personally know each of the kids. We'll be back next year! All in all, this is a great place where my kids are learning skills that will benefit them for the rest of their life. It's not a super fancy place, but I'd trade fancy surroundings for quality, personal instruction any day!

Katina was very patient and explained the process, the how and the why of everything from start to finish. She sent us a recipe pdf, with detailed instructions and tips. The list included items we would need from the store, and how to prep for the class as far as preheating, chopping, measuring etc. All around, great info on why we were using certain ingredients, and what each one has in it that serves a nutritional purpose. For instance: chia seeds are high in omega 3, just like fish. But for those that have seafood allergies, chia seeds serve as the perfect substitute! Highly recommend. Fair price, one hour of undivided attention, solid options for recipes, and very knowledgeable! We live in Nashville and she was more than accommodating for the time change as well!!

The program consists of 4 semesters that are 9 weeks each of a total of 9 months. You'll be working with different chefs each semester whom are amazing and talented. Each chef is different how they run their kitchen but it's good to experience that before you get in the real world. In all honesty, you have to have a bond with your fellow classmates. Working in a team and being a unit, will make your culinary experience a lot better and you'll learn so much more. The chefs do give you job opportunities in other restaurants and the school itself helps you with job placement. Lastly, be prepared to wash a lot of dishes. Baldwin Park Culinary Arts Academy is worth investing into your future!
