    About two months ago, I stumbled upon this store in the Short North. Quinci Emporium really caught my interest. The owner has curated really high quality products for the kitchen, dining, and home entertaining. They also sell specialty food products. There are beautiful salad servers, gold cocktail pitchers, wood muddlers, milk glass tumblers, and many other beautiful items inside. Since this is a small business, I'd expect prices to be higher compared to chains like Crate & Barrel, Williams Sonoma, etc. Prices are pretty fair, however, and some items are actually priced lower than where I've seen similar products. There is a small kitchen in the back, and I was told by the owner that she was going to start having cooking classes. Looking at the website, it looks like that's finally taken shape and there are a few classes up for February. At $65 a piece, this is comparable (and even cheaper) in price to other cooking classes in the area. The Italian owner really seems to have a passion for cooking and bringing people together to eat and learn. Fairly new to the block, I really hope this business succeeds. They sell some items on their website and even do registries. Check them out online or when you're in the area. This is a great place to find a hostess gift or something new for your home!

    Un-filtered olive oil, parmigiano reggiano, and summer truffles! Mama Mia!!

    Molto Buono! I can't believe I didn't know this place existed and I'll be back to eat & perhaps take class to brush up on my pasta skills. They have unfiltered olio di olive, brava bella, summer truffles (a special) and a proper sized slice of parmigiano reggiano! I'll be back! Grazie!

    So delicious! I have tried their meat roll, vegetable roll, tomato tart, orange olive oil cake, lasagna, macaroni & cheese and espresso. Staff is always inviting, informative and friendly. So much love and care put into their products Ambiance is relaxing and delightful.

    The Mix is the cooking school at Columbus State which hosts classes that are open to the public…read more The classes are held in the culinary teaching rooms in Mitchell Hall. I cannot say enough good things about the experience here. We attended the Mothers Day afternoon tea class and it was so special. We got to meet several other mother/daughter pairs and had lots of laughs. Our menu was a feast. We made tea sandwiches, scones, mini quiches and sausage rolls. Everything came out beautiful and tasty. Kudos to our terrific instructor Shawnie, who was so organized. The tea service itself was very well thought out. We had music, hot teas, fresh flowers, mimosas and locally made macarons. A wonderful day of memories made with Mom.

The kitchen was spotless, well-organized, and a perfect setup for hands-on learning. The student helper was exceptional--so friendly, knowledgeable, and really made the experience enjoyable. Learning to master perfect scones was a blast, and I can't wait to come back for more classes when we visit Columbus again. I highly recommend The Mix for anyone looking for a fun, engaging cooking class in a fantastic environment! We meet others who've been to other cooking classes and they also said, this cooking class was one of the best.

The following details & dishes created were: "Korean BBQ Workshop" $85.00 per person Korean Vegetable Pancakes with Soy Dipping Sauce Pork and Vegetable Dumplings Fresh Cucumber Kimchi Traditional Banchan Spicy Pork Bulgogi Lettuce Wraps Korean Kalbi BBQ Short Ribs This specific class didn't include any alcohol beverages, if you wanted to enjoy a beer or wine the cost was a la carte. Beers were $4 each & Bottles of wine ranged from $25- $48. Please note glasses of wine are not offered however you can take your unfinished bottle of Wine home with you. I highly recommend these cooking workshops, they are fun, informative & most importantly no matter what level of cooking skills you have you will fit in perfectly! Chef Mike (the owner) and his professional staff are there to guide & help you thou out the whole process. At the end of the cooking class everyone sits down at individual tables to enjoy the meal, it is a meal - you won't be leaving hungry. It's a fantastic date night or gather a few friends & cook together.

The chef explained each course and came around to answer any questions. We left so full!!!!

It definitely broke up the usual Columbus activities. We did paella night and it was a blast. They are BYOB so you can bring drinks/wine and they have all the glassware and openers needed!

The building itself and their garden is stunning. Go!!

Baking macarons is a tricky thing and Damaris did such a good job breaking down all the steps. She gave us lots of tips and tricks for our home baking, and you can see her passion for what she does. That said, I have been to several of the cooking schools in Columbus and this was my least favorite overall attendee experience. It was more expensive, yet very "basic" for lack of a better word. All of the cooking classes I have attended come with some kind of amenities - a welcome cocktail, wine bar, cheese and crackers, hot coffee/tea, etc. Something. This class was three hours long and there was nothing offered but water and iced tea (on a 20 degree day). We also did not receive any kind of information prior to the class, so parking was like solving a mystery (hint: the parking lot is behind the house down a side alleyway)

I like this location much better than their old location and the space works better for them than it did for Williams Sonoma. The staff is friendly and offered to help me determine which set of knives I may want to upgrade. I decided to just sharpen my old Wustoff set and maybe get some new pans another day. It always pays to invest in quality cookware. If you take care of it they often last a lifetime. If you look at it that way the items in this store cease to be expensive and become a great value. While there I noticed Sur La Table had knocked out some of William Sonomas walls which elongated the store and also allowed for a much bigger cooking class area. The store was beautiful. Nice job relocating. The store is gorgeous and fun to shop at. .

I took the class by myself and had enough food to make a meal for 4 and have left overs. Everything was measured out for us when we go there. Only thing I really had to do to prep was chop the veggies. The teacher was informative. I think this class was really great for people who maybe don't have a lot of experience cooking. Or good for someone who cooks a lot but maybe wants to try and master a recipe. I've made pasta before but it didn't come out near as good as when I made it here. It gave me the opportunity to try out a pasta rolling machine with out having to buy one. Definitely worth buying one by the way if you're wondering. With our pasta we made a flavorful Bolognese sauce and a side salad. The teacher packaged up all of our stuff for us once we were done and sadly my vinaigrette didn't make it into the bag and I didn't notice until I was getting ready to set the table. I luckily had most of the ingredients at home or some variation of the sort so I whipped up a new batch but was not as good as the original. So highly suggest you check your bag to make sure it's all there. Also, you do get a 10% discount that you can use the day of class in store. Aprons were provided. I suggest wearing comfy shoes since you'll be standing for approx 2 hours give or take some time.

A "date" can be almost anything. So, don't feel like you have to have a special date, but it is a great way to spend the evening together, learn something new and share in a meal. You can bring your own bottle of wine along, if you wish. The cooking class lasted two and a half hours. The chef leading the event was quite knowledgeable, kept us on time, checked-in with each team regularly answering questions and sharing suggestions, while sharing personal stories to make the event interesting. It was fun! Met some new folks and swapped travel stories. Class size tonight was 13 people. Learned about some of the different kitchen tools as well as techniques. (I can poach an egg now!) They provide copies of the recipes so you can make the meal again later. The staff here at Sur La Table were wonderful. Made us feel right at home! You do get a 10% off discount for purchasing any merchandise in the store after the class. Plus, they will give you a $10 discount for each individual, if you sign up for another class that day. I signed up for another class as there are so many more fun classes to choose from. It's a great way to get out of the house and spend time with friends, family or a special some one.
