She taught us not just how to cook, but how to prep, basic knife handling, and an interesting way to prepare garlic. The first part of the class we all sat with our recipes and watched Maggie in the kitchen while she explained everything. Then we split into groups of 2 and tackled one recipe for each group. When we were done, our reward was the amazing food we cooked! Every dish complimented the others spectacularly. I cannot wait to make these again at home. Thank you Maggie for a lovely evening!

Our experience with The Tree and been great. We can order online and they will have the bottles ready for pickup that day. All of the various Oils and Balsamic's we have tried are excellent. We use them on many of our dishes. We always create a great Balsamic and Oil sauce to go with our pasta dishes and to dip our home made Focaccia. The two gentlemen that we've met at the store are veterans and they are both extremely personable and knowledgeable about all of their products. It's great to just go and taste the options they have.

We had a great time at Taz's cooking class learning to make Korean food! To be honest, I'm not a…read morehuge fan of some Korean food - I'm just not used to some of the flavors (kimchi is a little odd to me). I do, however, love Korean BBQ. I was looking for a fun date night and stumbled upon Taz's cooking classes, which all seem to focus on different Asian themes. Mark H. and I have tried repeatedly to cook Thai and Indian curries without any success, so I signed us up for the Korean BBQ night. Little did I know that we would be cooking a Korean BBQ FEAST. We cooked for about 3 hours. Each recipe independently seemed manageable, but who eats a single item at a Korean BBQ? My favorite dishes ended up being the Korean potato salad and, of course, the meat. At the end, we sat together family-style and devoured massive quantities of delicious food that we'd all cooked together. Looking back on the night, there were so many recipes and tips and tricks that there's no way I can keep it all straight. Luckily Taz sent us home with a mini cook book of the recipes we had created! One of the biggest pluses of his course is that he focuses on the ingredients and where to find them - turns out our curries probably weren't going so well since we were getting all our ingredients at Fry's or Safeway. 10/10 will go back again for another night. Can't wait to learn how to cook a good Thai dish!

We had Covid tests prior to the class, Taz purchased all the necessary ingredients, he arrived on time with color printed recipe instructions for us to keep, and he expertly showed us the ropes.

He's a down to earth amazing chef, he's professional and courteous, we'll schedule another class with him, and he has our highest endorsement and recommendation. A+++

Every class was hands-on, delicious, and incredibly well-organized. Chef Andrew and Chef Jenny were fantastic--knowledgeable, fun, and great at breaking things down in a way that made everything approachable, no matter your skill level. The recipes were thoughtfully chosen, the ingredients were high quality, and the end result? Always something I was proud (and excited) to eat. It's the perfect mix of learning and fun. Whether you're looking for a night out with friends, a date night, or just something new to try, I can't recommend this place enough. I'll definitely be back--again and again.
