Not only was this a fantastic date activity, I loved learning the science behind the process. Emily was the best teacher, made the process feel like a creative outlet. We were able to eat our creations AND go home with more to make. ADDITIONALLY, they have a kitchen consignment shop that has the BEST finds. I found a perfect le creuset dish for $11!!! Will be back!!

Either about food or technique in the kitchen! This place was a blast I would def recommend for team building or date nights or even as a family activity. Claire was our host and she was AMAZING, we got to do all the fun stuff and she was there to clear and clean our dishes, provide us with tools and ingredients PLUS while we were eating she boxed up our leftovers (yes, you will definitely have leftovers)!!! Great experience, if you are interested in taking a cooking class this is definitely the place to do it! They can and will curate the menu to meet the needs of food allergies, diets and preferences.

AhhhMAZING!! My…read morefamily absolutely loves coming here!! My daughter and I have done classes, my husband and I have done date night classes and most recently we double dated with friends for a date night. They NEVER dissappoint! Tashi is so laid back and chill it feels like you're learning from your bestie, and he is so patient to explain not onky the what but the why. I am the type of person who loves to know the science behind what we are doing and he delivers everytime. If you are looking for something to do as a family, with friends or as a gift to others Cookin Class is it! They can change things up whether its an ingredient or even a specific day you're needing and their communication is awesome. Can't wait for our next class!!

My son & I took the 'Dumplings of the World' class with Zach last weekend and had a great time. The…read moreclass was well planned, there was not a moment wasted, while also never feeling rushed. The space itself is spacious & tidy, broken up into a workspace, eating space and even a room where I imagine a smaller class or party space may be able to be set up. We had a full class, and stations were prepared (ingredients measured, tools set, etc) upon entering. We were guided through preparing the jiaozi (Chinese dumpling) wrapper dough, filling (while dough rested), then filling & wrapping. After being showing the filling & wrapping, we were returned back to our stations, where Zach rounded with the pairs for 1:2 time with the trickiest parts of the process: the folding! Quantity wise, we made more than enough, and the class was WELL worth the price in value, in my opinion: we had enough for the group to be well fed at the end of the class, and we also brought home another 8 to steam at home, which made for a good sized side for another meal. We honestly could have even made another several too, but it does get tiring on newbie hands after a while at it, not to mention wanting to chow down once you start smelling them steaming!! All in all, I'm glad I stumbled upon this class, and I'm sure my son & I will be visiting Cookshop again for other sessions. As an added bonus, we received the recipes to make jiaozi at home, so this also isn't a one & done experience like some new class/hobbies sometimes tend to be!

My work had a team event at this location, teaching us how to make sushi. We were greeted with a…read morecheese and fruit board and various sparkling waters. One could add on a glass of wine or beer if so desired. The class was lead by Sushi Expert, Devan, who showed 15 of us newbies how to create 4 different sushi rolls. It was way harder than I thought but very fun to attempt. She showed us how to work with sushi ingredients, proper knife techniques, ensured we maintained a clean cutting board and how to roll properly. By the end of the 2 hour course, we had a huge plateful of 4 sushi rolls including veggies, shrimp, crab dip, salmon and tuna. I could only eat about a third of it, around 24 pieces. It looks like all types of classes are conducted here for kids as well as adults. Fun space for team bonding events. I would enjoy another round of classes, maybe something more in my wheel house.

Chef Valentine is so nice and patient, the classes are fun, and at the end, you realize it's surprisingly easy to make good, healthy, affordable food that is delicious! I've taken the pork ramen class, which was my favorite. The broth, cooks in 30 minutes in an Instapot, and it was so rich and flavorful. I went out an Instapot the next day! We also made the noodles from scratch. It took a lot of kneeding to get the texture where it needed to be, but it was worth it! I haven't made the noodles at home yet because it took two of us to manage the pasta sheets and pasta machine, which I don't have. But someday! Also enjoyed the class where we learned how to make Saag Paneer, one of my favorite Indian dishes. Once you learn the technique, you can substitute chicken or lamb for the paneer. Quick, delicious, and far less money than if buying out. What makes these cooking classes so enjoyable is the ease and comfort of the atmosphere, created by Chef Valentine, and the ability to get to know the other people in the class. You all prep and cook together and then share the meal as a community. You can bring beer, wine or hard cider - and if you forget, go downstairs and buy some! People tend to share what they bring which adds to the sense of community. Chef Valentine has taught me knife skills, which I thought I had! Wrong. I was doing all the work and not letting the knife do it's job. It's all about the tools and using them properly. These classes have also taught me patience. Cutting all the veggies for the ramen takes time, skill and patience to get uniformed cuts. Prepping and measuring first makes the actual cooking process go smoother. I've always been a cook, but never much of a baker because baking is about being precise with measurements, which requires patience. After taking several cooking classes at Feed the Mass, I've learned how patience pays off. This Christmas, I baked about a dozen varieties of cookies, including baklava. They all turned out wonderful, according to my friends who gobbled them up and I owe it to Chef Valentine! Classes are located on the second floor of Whole Foods in the Pearl. You can park on the street or in Whole Foods garage. If you spent $10 on groceries, parking is free. Love taking classes here! I bought a book of 5 passes so classes end up being $25 per class, a bargain since you also eat a meal! What I really like is the mission of a Feed the Mass, which is to educate and provide classes to those who can't afford to pay for classes, to teach them how to make a healthy and affordable meals for their family. A meal that costs less than fast food and is far more delicious. And healthier. Taking classes supports this Non-Profit's mission. There are classes for kids, date nights, family classes and even classes where you learn how to prep a few meals that stretch out for a week. So take some classes and learn new skills, have fun and pay it forward! It's a great experience and a fun way to spend an evening with friends, family or as a single...once you walk in the door, you are part of the community.

No matter your skill level (unless, maybe, if you're already a professional chef), you'll learn something new. We made ramen noodles from scratch (!), which were an amazing consistency and soaked up the flavor of the broth well. We also learned proper knife techniques. Chef Valentine has a real passion for cooking and teaching others this important life skill as a means to a healthier lifestyle. A portion of class fees goes towards scholarships for classes for those in need. On the down side, this may have ruined me for instant and non-housemade restaurant ramen, as ours was so good! Now I'll really be saying, I could/should have made this at home!
