My kids have done a couple of summer camps here, which they really enjoyed. Today we had my sons…read morebday party and that was such a wonderful experience. It was 13 8&9year old kids and the 3 who hosted the party were so happy, patient, they really enjoyed the kids and the cooking. Lots of places have paid helpers who do their job at parties. But here, they were so engaging - it really made my sons friends feel welcome. Spills and loud voices didn't phase them, they all had such a kind way of redirecting the kids who needed some guidance. The best part for Mom and Dad was that we walked in and needed nothing. They did it all. Water, lemonade, snacks, decor, cupcakes, candles. Even a lollipop party favor. On a busy Fall Saturday with kids sports in full swing, this was a huge blessing to my husband and me. I would highly recommend this studio for camps and especially parties!

I delayed writing this post in hopes that by the end of the weekend Angie would have sent me an…read moreemail or called with an apology, but that never happened, so I'm here to leave my review on our experience at her place of business. I booked Flour Power to host my daughter's 11th birthday party with 15 children, and the entire experience was a major letdown. From the outset, communication was disorganized. The pricing listed online was misleading--what was advertised as a 16-guest package actually only covered 11 kids, with an extra $25 charge per additional child. The venue was tiny and cramped, far from what you'd expect from a business specializing in children's parties. I was given minimal time to set up my own decorations, and the limited space made it feel chaotic from the start. The cooking class was poorly planned and executed. Only four dough-making stations were available for 16 girls, forcing groups to sit and watch rather than participate. The activities were basic and boring, with little to no effort from staff to keep kids engaged. After the dough session, half the girls lost interest while waiting. Next was sauce-making and garlic bread, which was just spreading butter and Kroger parmesan on a store bought French loaf--another "group activity." The girls then sat bored for about 20 minutes while the sauce simmered. I asked Angie multiple times to play music to liven up the atmosphere, but the music was barely audible and she never fully fulfilled my request. A staff member's rude attitude stood out. Several mothers privately told me about her eye-rolling, glaring, and bossy tone toward the girls. Even some older girls commented on her unkindness. I considered addressing it during the event but wanted to avoid interrupting or causing anymore negativity. When it was time to check out, I asked Angie if she could show me my remaining balance. She opened her laptop and quickly clicked through a few screens. Before I could say anything, she landed on a page where she told me I could leave a tip. At that moment, I hadn't yet discussed my overall experience or shared feedback from myself and other mothers and athletes. This feedback was important hoping she would consider it to improve future parties I was caught off guard because nothing in the email confirmation mentioned gratuity, the party itself was already $700 and the way she pushed the tip in my face struck me as both unprofessional and tacky. Given our concerns about the evening and how forcefully she insisted on a tip, I told her we wouldn't be leaving one at this time. That's when things took a turn for the worse. She gave me a disgusted glare and said, "Are you serious? You're not going to tip us? Who does that? Don't you think we deserve a tip?" As a luxury business owner myself, I couldn't believe how she handled the situation--especially in front of my 11-year-old daughter and her friend. I was left speechless. Then, she slammed her laptop shut and said, "I'll just take it out of my own pocket!" I requested a private conversation away from children and staff to voice my concerns, all of which fell on deaf ears. Angie then continued to openly berated me in front of my daughter and staff as I made my way back to the front, questioning why I wouldn't tip even after insulting me multiple times during our private conversation. When I mentioned I'd leave an honest review based on her unprofessional & erratic behavior, she threatened to leave one about my business despite having no prior knowledge of me or my business. My daughter and her friend both left visually upset by the interaction & were even brought to tears on our way home. Overall, the event was overpromised and underdelivered. The space was cramped, outdated, the activities poorly managed, staff were rude, and Angie handled the situation unprofessionally. I would not recommend Flour Power for children's parties. EDIT: Added message in response to Angie. Angie- Your response contains several inaccuracies. The girls were engaged with each other, not the cooking class. During an attempt to address my concerns with you privately, you raised your voice and berated me for not wanting to leave you a tip based on our experience. Your behavior that evening included unprofessional remarks directed at me in front of your staff, my daughter, and guests. While I have documented the full series of events on my phone, the focus here is on the factual recounting of what occurred. To state that tips are appreciated but not expected is simply untrue. Given how the situation was handled, I'm sure you must feel embarrassed. However, responding to my honest review with denial and misrepresentation is not the professional way to address these concerns. I trust you will consider this feedback seriously. The best path forward is to acknowledge and address issues professionally rather than denying or misrepresenting how the event unfolded.

What an amazing experience! As someone who has done a TON of mediocre teambuilding and engagement…read moreactivities, I cannot recommend chef tre enough. His ability to engage our large and diverse group while making it a fun and memorable experience for all was extremely impressive. Even people who normally roll their eyes at these sorts of activities were participating and having a great time. It didn't matter if you were an experienced chef, a novice, a senior leader, or a newbie on the team....everyone loved it! His location was a bit out-of-the-way for our company and took us about a half hour to drive to (which is not a distance we normally travel for dinners/activities). On the way there, some people were complaining about how far away it was, but THE MOMENT chef tre started talking with everyone there was zero additional mention of the drive (and it wasn't mentioned again a single time after the fact). Thank you chef Tre and team for an amazing night!

He is hilarious! The meal he and the other chefs prepared for us, was also delicious. Free-flowing, fun and laughter! Would definitely recommend this venue for other team building events.

The food was amazing, everyone truly enjoyed the flavors and presentation. They cleaned up nicely and were out of there in no time at all. I would definitely recommend.

I recently moved to Plano and have been researching fun activities to participate in. Running in 90+ degree temps with humidity will tire a girl out! Something needs to be indoors. Enter, an incredible pastry class. I'm no rookie when it comes to culinary classes. I love them! I love cooking and baking and always learn something new from a class. It's something I throughly enjoy. This experience was 5 STARS! Everyone was so warm, friendly, inclusive and kind. We really had the absolute best time. I've been trying to feel a sense of community after relocating and the other students, as one told me are "my people". My week days have been spent in an altogether different environment that regardless of if it's cultural has brought me down in a real way. I was looking for an afternoon of joie. The class was so inviting, hands on and fun! We made a bunch of items, shared snacks and our creations together. On break another student in class gave me a tour of Central Market since I'd never been to one. Grabbing coffee, exchanging business cards with others, bookmarking a ton of new spots to try and learning about other fun activities was truly worth every dollar spent to join this 4hr class. It felt exactly like what I had imagined moving to Texas with Texans would feel like. It attracted the finest residents. I can't wait to return. They have an all star line up of classes and August is hatch chili month. I will surely be signing up for at least one class a month. The florals are also totally worth mentioning, the store and class is adorned in the most incredible arrangements. It really was such a lovely class. Now if I can find someone to teach me Mahjong! The store is also gorgeous! I'm definitely at the age where I couldn't care less about local bars, show me a stunning grocery store! Coming from Los Angeles, dare I say it... Central Market might be better than Erewhon.

The Cookery is a great date night / group activity spot if you're looking for something fun,…read moreinteractive, and just different enough to make you feel like you have plans. I came for the sushi-making class, and overall, it was a really good time. The setup was smooth, the atmosphere was lively, and the whole experience felt more like a social night out with a little culinary cosplay which honestly, has its place. They also offered wine and sake pairings, and you can BYOB, which definitely helps keep the vibe festive. That said... if you're hoping to leave with the confidence to open your own omakase counter in a strip mall, this is not that. A lot of the components were pre-made or prepped ahead of time, and there wasn't a ton of actual teaching around technique, ingredients, or the food itself. So while you do "make sushi," it's less MasterClass and more cute, hands-on dinner activity. But honestly? That's not necessarily a bad thing. Not every class needs to end with a knife skills certification and a spiritual relationship with sushi rice. Bottom line: Come here if you want a fun, low-pressure experience for a date night, girls' night, or team outing. Just set expectations correctly: this is more about the experience than becoming the next IronChef.

Everything is split up amongst the groups so don't be scared thinking you'll be cooking the whole time. We selected the Cocktail Party event which consisted of appetizers and drinks. I wish I would've taken more photos but that would've required constant washing of the hands! Menu consisted of Sweet and spicy caramelized nuts( Amazing) Warm Crab dip Crostini( Spectacular, but I think we preferred it cold) Crispy Prosciutto Green Goddess Deviled eggs( probably our favorite appetizer..and she doesn't even like deviled eggs) Ahi Poke/Avocado Wontons( we might actually try the crab mix in the wontons) Chili Lime shrimp and Mango salsa lettuce boats( I thought it was excellent but she felt it was too spicy) Candied Orange infused Dark chocolate bark( awesome and the sea salt on top made it the perfect dessert). The drinks had a little something for everyone. I'm a whiskey on the rock kinda guy so the drinks were a little on the sweet side for me, but to each their own. Martinis, Magaritas, Gin Fizz, Old fashioned and a Caipirinha(yeah I never heard of it either but it was good!) I'm aware the price may be a little more daunting than your normal date nights but the experience and the quality ingredients made it well worth it!
