My son has taken cooking classes at his school and at the kroc center. He loved it at school but it…read morewas only for 5 weeks. I put him in the Kroc class and he hated it made me promise never to make him do it again. So i put him in the junior chefs class. He loved it, they make real food with good nutrition. At the end the teachers ask them a bunch of fun trivia and the kids get to show off their work and feed the parents. Prices are a little steep at $25 for an hour and a half but well worth my sons happiness. They also have camps and workshops. What a wonderful idea.

I used to love this place. We had a group that met every Saturday for many years. We brought in…read morebusiness and were respectful. We shopped there and enjoyed our time together. Then a new owner came in. She told us that everything would be great. We were excited. Once there, felt sort of unwelcome but kept going anyway. We all sat at this little copper table with chairs and they brought us food and coffee. It was the norm and we were happy to have a circle table where we could all chat. We had a new lady join that week and she was told by the new owner that she doesn't want us at that table and to pass it on. It was to be for wine drinkers only. Well, why serve us there the whole time only to tell one person, not even the organizer about it. Owner sent a man over to us and we talked to him about it and we all brought up ideas and talked back and forth and thought it was ok at the end. The following week, a new gal came and didn't feel well. She asked the owner to tell the group she had come and that she wasn't feeling well. The owner asked who the group was and she started badmouthing us to the new girl! Another woman showed up and the new gal told her what happened and they both left. The group now meets elsewhere, but it is a shame that you treated a local group after the owner moves here from Spokane and wants to fit in, like garbage after meeting there for YEARS! Not only that, this establishment now closes early and doesn't stay open for farmers markets or anything local going on. It really is a sad deal that someone can come in and ruin a business that someone else worked so hard to build.

I ordered the turkey cranberry sandwich. The gluten free bread was pretty good as far as gf bread…read moregoes. The sandwich itself was teeny tiny! I was so disappointed, there was literally two pieces of sliced turkey on this sandwich. I could barely taste it there was so little. It came to $17.87 with tax and didn't even include chips. Tiny expensive sandwich without chips for nearly $20?? No thanks

Another master class by Jamie Aquino! I've been eyeing her Farm to Table class for a couple years…read moreand finally had the chance to attend with my dad. This class is great because you also get a trip to the Kendall Yards Farmers Market where Jamie breaks down what's in season and an ideas for how to use various ingredients. You shop along with her as she picks out the main ingredients for the class and have time to shop yourself before getting started with the actual class back at the Kitchen Engine. Her classes and dishes are vegetarian and plant-based so you leave with nutritious and delicious recipes. My only disclaimer is that this class (and really any class) will be challenging for those with mobility issues. The walking involved at the market with this class and the bar stool seating for the 3-hr class was difficult for my father, who has mobility issues. That said, he has a blast. Just a callout so you know what to expect.

Kitchen Engine I love you! I'd just arrived in Spokane and was wandering aimlessly with my man when…read morewe wandered into the old flour mill building. Lo and behold, there was one of the best kitchen gadget ships I've ever experienced combined with a cafe combined with a cooking school. This place is seriously the best of three worlds. I was able to buy some loose leaf tea for my daughter, the cortado was DELICIOUS, and they had some very specialized kitchen tools o haven't seen anywhere else (pizza scissors that double as servers!) if you're a foodie, a chef, or just someone who likes good espresso, this is the place to stop in. Plus, my honey forgot his water bottle when we ordered coffee and the baristas were so kind to have set it aside for us when we later returned. LOVE this place.

Easy to get to but a little hard to find. Parking lot is near the Jitterz coffee then just walk towards the front of the food trucks and go inside the big building. Walk to the SE corner and you are there. Place is nice and cool on a warm day and has 3 seats at the sushi bar and over a dozen tables to a sit at. Rolls are on the bigger size so worth the price. I tried 2 rolls: B52 roll has smoked steelhead, cream cheese, and cucumber, topped with salmon, spicy mayo, tempura crunchies, & green onion. Great smoked salmon flavor. Wish mine had a little more cream cheese and less rice. The Tuna Volcano was the other roll which has Spicy tuna mix , green onion, cucumber, topped with avocado, tuna poke, spicy mayo, Sriracha & tobiko. I think they forgot the Sriracha and put extra mayo on mine. Solid 4.5 stars for their rolls. I forgot to take a picture until I was more than halfway done eating:

TLDR: hire Scott, no one else could possibly be better…read more We hired Scott to cater our wedding. He was easy to work with from start to finish. He loves to cook, and it shows in the quality of his food. When we did a tasting with him, he gave us some ideas, coached us on what food would be best for our venue, and accommodated our special requests. When we left, the Mrs. and I both mentioned we were glad he would be at our wedding, even it was as a guest. Great guy. On the day of the wedding, Scott handled the food perfectly, we didn't stress about a single thing. Everyone loved the menu, the appetizers were delicious, and the signature mashed potatoes are divine. Scott is the best, prices are reasonable, certainly under-priced for the level of quality and service he provides. Very very happy with our caterer!
