I'd gone to a Chef Upstairs event a few years ago, and always kept them in mind as it was a great…read moreexperience. They offer various services and events, and I recalled as well that they also do kids camps. Over the past couple years, my daughter has taken a big interest in cooking. And not just a fleeting interest, but consistently enjoys watching cooking shows and wanting to participate in cooking at home. As we were planning summer camps this year, I thought we should try to finally give her a chance to live her dream a bit and attend a week here. She's gone to a city-run one before. Though she quite enjoyed it, it was fairly simple. At The Chef Upstairs, they are in a full commercial kitchen with gas stoves, deep fryers and a whole bunch of other things you'd expect from a real kitchen. They have a firm belief that kids can learn safely - in fact, the safest thing is to expose them and provide proper technique. And they're not just making things like a deli meat roll up wrap, but full-on multi-course meals (they make breakfast and lunch) and from recipes from all around the world. You should look at the menus they post on their site for the kids camps. It was a bit of a sacrifice for us as we do not live nearby. That said, they have two locations, so a number of people are well-situated if near Vaughan and midtown Toronto. It's also a bit more money than many other kids camps - though its apparent with the food costs and the high staffing ratio that it's still good value. Ultimately, it was well worth it. My daughter loved it and truly lived out a dream and learned a lot. The highlight for her was the week long prep leading up to the Iron Chef-esque competition where they planned their own full menu. I'm thrilled that The Chef Upstairs lived up and even exceeded our already high expectations and truly made a lifetime memory for our daughter.

Kevin literally blew me away with his presentation and deep understanding and appreciation of not only the St Lawrence Market and its history, but knowledge of food and how to properly appreciate it. To say our tour was memorable is a massive understatement. It literally changed the way I appreciate where businesses source and present their food, but also in how I taste those items while I eat. "DON'T CHEW YOUR CHEESE!!!" Thanks for the great tour, "Dad" (if you know, you know). 10/10. Highly recommend. Would do again.

Once restrictions were in place & it was evident that camps would not run. The owner has NOT provided a FULL refund. The initial contract stated FULL refund less $100. Suddenly it became full refund less $100 + hst. I indicated that this was not in the original contract. The FULL refund was never provided. Due to a service that was never rendered, dishonesty & lack of honouring the original contract. I would not recommend this business to anyone.

Being a busy mom of…read morethree young and picky children I wanted to learn how to cook meals that I could make in advance and that my kids would like. Shai spent our first few lessons covering all the basics, from knife skills to nutritional values of different foods. Over the course of our time together (about 15 lessons) I can honestly say that my confidence level in the kitchen has improve by a 10-fold. Not only are my kids happy about the yummy (and healthy!!) food I'm putting on the table now, but I had the BEST time hanging out with Shai. She is patient, encouraging, extremely skilled, and FUNNY!! I'd recommend her to anyone and I'm definitely going to be sending my kids to her cooking camps this summer. Thanks Shai!!!

I had loads of fun learning and tasting the different flavours and of course tasting the results at the end. Do keep in mind their alcohol drinks are not included in the price, the price for a glass of wine was about $15. Would really recommend coming with a loved one or a friend! We signed up for Comfort Indian Food, we explored mostly the North Indian cuisine. The chef was very knowledgeable and friendly! We got to take some leftover samosas home and he also gave us the extra samosa dough so we can make it at home. Will definitely return for more cooking classes!

He was patient, funny and very knowledgeable, but the most important thing was his recipes, they were delicious. We all said there are several we will make at home. Thanks Chef Gabe, you created a memorable experience for all of us.

Lots of charms to choose from and you can bring your own. The staff wad helpful in every step to help teach you how to use the piping bags to decoration ideas. One downside was we were not sure how staff kept track of the cost of our charms after we placed them in our basket. The charm prices are based on size and start from 50 cents to above $5, there are some free items as well. They also offer other art diy activities.
