We loved working together to make a delicious herbed fettuccine. I feel like we learned everything we need to know to be able to replicate the dish at home. I also loved the location. We enjoyed a nice glass of Cabernet from Gourmage while we cooked, and while we ate the pasta we created. Nicole and Stephanie made the experience easy and enjoyable for everyone. I can't wait to do another class there.

Our menu consisted of: Salad w/ Creamy Vinaigrette Pecorino and Chive Risotto Chicken Picatta Crème Brûlée We had a great time learning how to mince the proper way, why we mix olive oil and butter for frying and how chicken is cooked for piccata. She managed to do this with limited space and I must say, we had an enjoyable time working together! Thanks, Chef Nicole!

Lord help you if you want to do an EVEN EXCHANGE for a defective Sur La Table product. Tried to…read moreexchange out a $50 apron that wasn't even used, the pocket was ripping off. Still had tags and everything attached. Nope need a receipt for an even exchange. Look up account I used when I purchased. Nope doesn't exist. Call corporate, found account, we will request a receipt for you. Great! Tell me location, exact date, exact total. I need the receipt for the exact total. Oh well we can't find the receipt if you can't provide the exact total. All for an EVEN EXCHANGE!!!! What store doesn't do even exchanges without a reciept??!! TL/DR: always keep your receipts cause even with their name on the product they won't exchange anything.

I recently checked out the café at the Culinary Institute of America in San Antonio. I ordered a…read morematcha, but unfortunately it was way too sweet for my taste. That said, the pastry was excellent( super fresh and definitely the highlight of my visit.) My total came out to about $14, which is a bit on the pricey side, but I don't mind paying it knowing it supports the students and their training. Parking is something to plan for: you only get 30 minutes free at the Kohler Garage, and the Pearl District no longer offers two-hour free parking. There is paid public parking available nearby, though. I would absolutely come back for their dinner-course meal. I've done it multiple times and love it every time. However, I'd probably skip the café drinks in the future and just stick to the pastries.

I would definitely come back to try another one of their classes.

They have different package options with various items and times you can have the room for. You can play whatever music you want and literally just rage out.

Definitely worth the money and I will be back again lol. I forgot to take a before picture but we completely destroyed an old tv stand that was made out of some good quality wood haha.

The online booking process was easy, we ordered the large package (up to 4 people, 1 large item, 1 medium item, 2 small items and glass bottles). Checking in was very swift and easy as well, Grant (the owner's husband) was super friendly and explained everything very clearly! We ended up getting to break a large wooden dresser, a wooden table with glass panels, an old monitor, and a keyboard. Tools for destruction (baseball bats, a large metal wrench, sledgehammers) goggles, gloves, and a JBL speaker were provided for us. You can even bring your own items to destroy as long as they aren't something with chemicals/oil in them. You can also bring your own tools to destroy things as long as they aren't blades. We got 50 minutes to destroy everything, we got everything done in about 45 minutes, so you get a decent time to break stuff. All cleanup is handled by the staff, so you don't have to worry about making a huge mess. That's the point! I would definitely return, was smiling and laughing all through the entire 50 minutes we got. Would recommend wearing a long sleeve, maybe jeans, and some thicker shoes/boots since you'll be stepping on glass most of the time. Be mindful that fragments of glass/wood WILL go flying, so be aware of your surroundings and use common sense. We had a blast and couldn't recommend this business more!
