I just attended my first cooking class at Stone Turtle, and it was terrific. The set-up is…read moreexcellent. The class was only ten people and we were all seated around one large work table, so we were able to hear and see everything. The demonstration and hands-on parts of the class were both very well done. The food was delicious! We had plenty to eat during the day, and they sent us home with food. I can't wait to return for another class!

We hired Chef Michael to cook for us at a rental house in Maine for a birthday weekend dinner for…read more12 people. We had an amazing cheese and charcuterie board, chicken parmesan with pasta and caesar salad, and sole stuffed with shrimp and scallops (side of veggie rice pilaf and lemon asparagus). And for dessert we had one of the best coconut cream pies we've ever had! Everything was amazing! Chef Michael was accommodating with our budget and responsive during the planning process. He also worked with us to create vegan options for our vegan guests. He left everything spotless after dinner. I would highly recommend Chef Michael for any special event!

Thank you for a week of pure luxury. Betsy, Dave, and Molly, too!

We went to one of the farm to table dinners and Do not waste your money. It was my birthday dinner…read moreand was so disorganized, everybody was leaving plates of food cause it was inedible and it took forever. You eat family style which isnt my fave but in particular really isnt my fave if youre starving and running on a few 2oz shots of cider as there is no beer, wine, full pours of anything or even water? We sat at the end of the table and when the main entree (chicken) came out it was put in the middle so by the time it got to us we got about 2 bites of gristly thigh- and then the "chef" had the audacity to ask if we were full?! It was pretty clear that there was no edible chicken or pureed vegetables by the time it got down to us so when they cleared plates that didnt have food it should have gone without saying. We had to go home and order a pizza, mainly cause this took so long everything was closed. For the price point you could actually eat food you wanted almost anywhere else in Maine. I didnt feel comfortable complaining as it is generally not necessary in fine dining establishments and would have been rude in such a setting, particularly as we were sat next to a business associate of the chef. Such a disappointment.

I cannot recommend this cooking studio enough!…read more Our visit here was a birthday present for my girlfriend, and we both were very excited about taking a cooking class together. Well, we not only had a great time learning a new cuisine, but we made some new friends in the process. The studio is in a private home, so the setting is very intimate and private. So, if you have never touched a cooking utensil before, you are definitely in good hands here. If you have, then this becomes an art in learning new and exciting foods and the history behind them. After the food is prepared, we all sit down to dine together and engage in conversation over the meal in which we all took part in preparing. Such fun! Be aware that the studio is BYOB, but the studio does provide wine glasses and soft drinks. We had such a great time that we are hoping to do this again soon. If you enjoy cooking, have always wanted to try, wanted to experience food of different cultures, or all of the above, you owe it to yourself to go to HEAVEN ON EARTH !!!

Driving along a main road in search of our breakfast stop, we passed by Claudette's, not realizing…read morethat it was in her home. My mom and I were up for the weekend and we were intrigued by some pictures found online, so we decided to add a stop to our agenda. When we arrived, there were a few cars there, so we parked near them and a door that we assumed was the entrance. When we entered we were overwhelmed by the amount of products, followed by the amount of space that was dedicated to crafting. I wouldn't think that so much stuff could fit so neatly into one person's home. The first few aisles are lined with charms for necklaces, bracelets and other needs for crafting projects. There were rows of beads, gems, and other fun goodies. I found a bunch of wreath making supplies, a room of flowers and a room of ribbon...and some Christmas items. The owner is a super nice person and I can only assume that she was "the" Claudette, since I never did ask her name. My mother and I were just so excited speaking with her and checking out the craft samples that she and her family had made. This place is for the true crafter. One who isn't afraid to spend their time looking through thousands of items just to find that perfect piece. Though I'm sure if you ask, you will be told right where you will find what you're looking for. I did not see any scrapbook or junk journal type materials. Because the business is in the lower portion of a home, I would assume it is due to climate control. Did I mention that the prices are quite reasonable? I left with a full bag of so many fun things that I just can't wait to dive into. The store is closed on Sunday and Monday, so be sure to plan accordingly. Mom and I are already planning our next trip.
