There are date nights, and then there are the kind that remind you why sharing a table with someone…read morematters in the first place. My wife and I spent an early birthday celebration at The Foodie School for their sushi-making class, and somewhere between the sticky rice, sharp knives, and the quiet panic of trying not to destroy a roll in front of strangers, we had an unforgettable night. The evening wasn't some stiff cooking demonstration where you nod politely while a chef talks at you for two hours. This was hands-on, messy in the best way, and surprisingly intimate. We made an appetizer that looked like something from a downtown izakaya, rolled two different styles of sushi, and finished with matcha ice cream that tasted clean, earthy, and just indulgent enough to make you pause for a second before the next bite. Chefs Mara & Elon struck that rare balance between knowledgeable and approachable. No ego. No culinary theater. Just people who genuinely love food and want you to love making it too. And that's really what made the night work. Food wasn't treated like content for Instagram. It was treated the way it should be: as a shared experience. A little chaotic, a little imperfect, and far more satisfying because you made it yourself. If you're looking for a different kind of date night in Rock Hill -- one where you leave full, slightly proud of yourself, and smelling faintly of soy sauce and sesame oil -- this is the place.

I'd heard good things about their cooking classes and catering, so got curious about whether they offer smaller à la carte options. Lucky me, they do!

I can't recommend this venue enough for a fun night out with friends but especially for a large corporate event.

We cooked steak fritesand a flourless chocolate volcano cake for dessert. Classes are BYOB and they have an infused water that you can have as well. Instructions were clear, the food was delicious, and after cooking, we had a time to go out and shop (you save 10% on your in store purchases during class), and when we returned to the kitchen our tables were set and we were served family style. It was my first cooking class and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I would definitely suggest this for a fun date night. You get the experience and food all in one space.

The instructor ( Chef Sonia) was energetic, knowledgeable, patient, and made the class enjoyable for cooks of all skill levels. The recipes we learned hands-on were both creative and approachable, with ingredients that are easy to find and techniques that I can't wait to replicate at home. The highlight was definitely tasting the final creations. Which was SO delicious!! If you're looking for a fun, interactive way to improve your cooking or simply enjoy an evening out, I highly recommend taking a class at Sur La Table. It's an experience worth savoring!

When we arrived the location was immaculate having a spacious sun room area for us to sit and dine after finishing with the preparations. Our group of 10 was handled with extra care allowing each person to mix, measure, and pour ingredients then crafting our dough into perfect shaped noodles. The arrangements were clean and well stocked and amazingly delicious. It was a true hands on fun experience; I would try again and high recommend those foodies that love to get their hands dirty while learning from two wonderful experts about the history of Ramen. You must try the egg that was marinated for 24 hours that in itself was a treat, and defiantly try the spicy sauce. When you leave you will be full with a smile thinking I am glad a tried this.

I attended the sushi class and it surpassed my expectations. I would have never thought that I…read morecould make sushi or have fun cooking! The instructor, Sheera, is very knowledgeable, organized, professional & most importantly, patient. I learned many useful things in the class. We made 2 types of sushi rolls and still had enough to take home. Sheera even gave each member of the class ingredients (rice, nori & shrimp) to get started at home. I certainly appreciate the small class size (5-6) because it allows for more individualized attention for those, like myself, who may need a little extra guidance ;-) During dinner the group felt very casual and acquainted although I had only just met everyone. I felt so inspired after the class that I am planning to prepare my own sushi diner party in the near future. I certainly would recommend this class & will attend again!

After purchasing a Christmas cookie event as a birthday gift for my sister a few months ago. I was…read moreexcited to do one with my husband. I booked the Conversation Heart Cookie, aka "Creator's" conversation heart cookie class lol, which was emphasized at the beginning and twice during the class. The class came with 6 cookies to decorate and a beverage from the Hopfly Brewery. Laura and the ladies taught us how to put filler as a background on the cookie and other neat little tricks to do. The icing was really tasty and went well with my mango passion fruit cheesecake blender drink. I think the class and brewery was a good idea. But, I honestly did not like the fact that I paid $60 for this event that was diluted by the highlight of "The Creator's " being on set for free with a guest. I think there should have been a separate private class for them vs the way it was done. I get this is the New way to spread the word about your business. But it should not out shadow your paying guest. Being mindful is big in my book.
