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!!!

The customer service agent claimed she had no record of our ever being told we rebooked (I sent her the emails). She said we were refunded, then changed her story when I said I saw no refund and said we were never charged. No offer to book another class. Even a confirmation email from them does NOT mean you have a reservation!

My husband and I just took a private cooking class with a chef and made a four course French fare…read more First off, it was way too expensive for what it was. We merely went to someone's private house, cooked in her kitchen with her, and ate the meal. I was disappointed that it wasn't in a professional kitchen with other students. We were the only students tonight which was kind of nice, but also not so, because after we ate, we felt rushed to leave the house. The food we made was good though for the most part. The appetizer was okay, but not something I would make on my own as it consisted of baking a whole wheel of camembert cheese and topping it with apples sauteed in butter and sugar. It was good though, but not something we would make. Also, the dessert was not something we would make on our own either. We peeled two pears and soaked them in a whole bottle of red wine. My husband and I both felt that it was a waste of a bottle of wine as when you finish cooking it, you just throw away the rest of the wine. The main meal was chicken sauteed in butter and olive oil first then baked in a caste iron skillet. The chicken could have been cooked longer as it wasn't well cooked and kind of raw in my opinion. My husband who is a very picky eater actually liked it and said it was good, but I didn't think it was cooked well enough for my tastes. The leek sauce was nice and the ratatouille was okay, but I also felt the eggplant could have been cooked longer. Again, this was a very expensive experience for what it was. I think I paid about $270 for the both of us together, almost $300. I feel we could have just sat down at a really nice restaurant and ordered top of the notch steak and have had money left over. In any case, we've been wanting to take a cooking class together for a while, so we have that checked off our list. I just would not do this again with this company, with that chef, or recommend anyone else to waste their money doing it either.

It was an interesting event and I'm glad to be part of it - thx to groupon…read more Too bad it sprinkled thru out the day and it forced a lot of people to be inside the covered bungalow at the Ecole de Cuisine Pasadena (Housed in Chefs Center). I somehow expected this to be an indoor event, so staying "inside" was fine with me. We tried our first plate of couscous served with your choice of vegetable, chicken and/or beef (cheek?). Each item came with its own broth over the couscous. Vegetable was my favorite one. Besides from couscous, there were other items that Chef Farid Zadi and his team served that consisted of goat and rabbit meat. But the MUST have was the BRIK. It was the best thing I ate from this festival. It was OMG good~ I regretted not getting 2 the first time I ordered because by the time I wanted another one, the line was just too long. Each brik was prepared carefully in front of us (that's why it took a long time to order). It was prepared with a thin flour sheet called warka then the chef added shrimps (marinated with lemon/lime juice) + cilantro/parsley + harissa (a chili paste) + a whole egg (each cracked right in front of us). The chef then wrapped it loosely and then fried it... the end result = a crispy + fluffy layered of some darn good stuff called the BRIK.

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.
