Rose and I have worked together for the past few years, and all I can say is that if you're…read morecontemplating whether or not to work with her on putting together a cooking class - JUST DO IT! You won't be disappointed. Rose's energy is wildly positive, and she always goes above and beyond for all of her clients. She is funny, she is engaging, and just an overall great person. Her home is the perfect venue, and it's unlike any other cooking class you'll find in LA. AS LA OPENS BACK UP: Rose and her team put together a really wonderful in-person event for my company last night. WOW. What an INCREDIBLE way to return back to in-person events!! Honestly, I can't think of a better event to bring a group together - it's such a unique and fun class. Yesterday was the perfect LA day, and all of the dining and most of the cooking is done outdoors. Her and her team adhered to all of the necessary COVID protocols, and my whole group felt incredibly safe being at her home. All of her staff is fully vaccinated, and there were masks worn and plenty of hand sanitizers. I know that I can always trust her to help me put on a great event. We will continue to work with her for many more years to come. Also, this should be a given, but her recipes are ALWAYS delicious. When we do in-person cooking classes with her, a lot of the ingredients come straight from her backyard. Rose is also very accommodating for vegans, vegetarians, and any other dietary restrictions/allergies. She knows how to make everyone feel welcomed and part of a team. BTW, her virtual classes are also a hit! My company planned a virtual class with her last year, and we loved it! She was her usual engaging self, and of course, the food was great. As I've mentioned, she is always accommodating, and willing to go above and beyond for her clients. Thank you, Rose and team!!!

This year our company contacted LA Food Works and did a team building event. LA Food Works…read morespecializes in group cooking classes and the entire event lasted about 3~4 hours. Rose is the event organizer and everyone met at her house at 10 AM. After a warm reception and a quick introduction, we quickly split into different teams and I was assigned to the Creamy White Bean and Fennel Casserole station. The staff was very helpful and I just simply followed staff's instructions. Everyone pretty much finished the cooking by 12 PM and we were able to enjoy fruits of our labor! *** Menu *** * Roasted Beef Tenderloin and Chicken Stuffed with Mixed Herb Pesto * Arugula Salad with Candied Pine Nuts and Parmesan Dressing * Roasted Broccoli with Pumpkin Seeds, Pecorino and Gremolata * Creamy White Bean and Fennel Casserole * Lemon Souffle Cake with Macerated Mixed Berries Personally I liked arugula salad the best and my least favorite dish was lemon souffle cake (too sweet). Rose even emailed a digital copy of the recipe to everyone the following week! Overall it was a great team building experience and we also did a murder mystery right after our lunch (different company - not related to LA Food Works).

We had an excellent experience at Little Kitchen Academy from drop-off to pick-up. Since parents…read morearen't in the session, I can't personally speak to everything that happens during class, but based on what my daughter shared, she had an amazing time. She told me she learned what it's like to run a kitchen from A to Z, which was both fun and educational. When I picked her up, she was all smiles and couldn't wait to tell me about everything she had learned. The staff was professional, friendly, and did an incredible job working with the kids. It was clear they created a positive, engaging, and supportive environment. We're so excited for her next class and look forward to seeing her continue to learn and grow at Little Kitchen Academy!

Chef Ronnie came to our house with his assistant Lisa (I think - sorry!) and they were both just awesome. Ronnie is super down-to-earth and totally friendly.

Also, and maybe this should have come first, but his food was also absolutely amazing. He worked with my husband for almost two months coming up with a menu that I would love...and I did. Wow. The first course of a salad was amazing and it just got better from there to the pesto pasta, the shrimp dish, the steak and then two desserts! We were absolutely stuffed.

I also loved the experience of watching Jesus the owner and his chefs making the 2 big paellas , as my paella pans are smaller and -in my experience-it is really tricky to make them so big.

Viva Espana!!!! :-) I got to talk to Jesus a little bit and found him to be very pleasant.

I followed about 10% of the recommendations and ended up losing almost 40 pounds over the next few months. It wasn't just the weight, all of the lifestyle related health conditions I'd developed reversed over the same period. I even got a re-assessment for life insurance and got the top of the line health rating. And I'm not a gym rat, I go to the gym about twice a week and can now lift heavier than I ever have and run longer than ever without feeling like I'm going to pass out. My recovery is better and lingering knee issues are no more. Needless to say, Vasu is easy to talk to and solid guy. I'll be going back to soak up the other 90% soon. Thank you, Vasu.
