Hipcooks Portland absolutely knocked it out of the park with Indian Food Night! Lead chef Lacy and…read moreassistant Annie created an experience that was equal parts informative, fun, and unbelievably delicious. From learning techniques and spices to understanding the "why" behind the dishes, the class struck a perfect balance between hands‑on cooking and approachable instruction. Every dish we made was incredibly tasty, and the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and full of great energy. It truly felt like a community‑building event, not just a cooking class. My wife and I had a fantastic time and left inspired (and very well fed). We will definitely be back for future classes. Highly recommend Hipcooks Portland--and huge kudos to Lacy and Annie for such a memorable night!

If you are lucky enough to find out when the South Salem Culinary Arts Program has their "Bistro…read moreNight" you will be in for a real foodie treat. What waits for you is a fixed price menu of several courses designed by Chef and the South Salem HS Culinary students. I have had the pleasure of dining in what can truly be one of Salem's best dining experience on two separate occasions. Both times the Menu included two entrees, two desserts and creative starters, soups and salads. The best part of the dining experience is that you can be your own "Iron Chef" judge and provide useful feedback to the students on each course. If you like a "Chef's Table" experience where you are part of the foodie learning process then this is it! The servers are the students themselves which so far has translated into an impeccable level of service. I am looking forward to the next time. I would rather keep this an underground secret, but something this fun needs to be shared. Keep up the good work!

There were some dietary restrictions & that was a non issue. Ingredients were super fresh and of the BEST quality!! Some of the simple prep was done previously (thank you!) and we didn't have to clean up so we could really enjoy the experience of cooking & enjoying a meal together. Thank you Claire! I understand this has been a thing for a couple years now and there is talk of moving on over to Division in a larger space so more people can be accommodated at once. How exciting!! I just can't say enough how glad I am to have had this experience and I'm sure I'll be back for a drop in class!!

I attended a private cooking class last week as a corporate holiday event. It was a blast! The…read moreteacher was organized and thorough with her preparations and cooking instructions. We had a group of around twelve people and everyone was kept occupied with some task, but not so busy that they couldn't sip their wine and chat. Once our meal was prepared, we sat down at one long table and enjoyed the fruits of our labor. I will certainly return again on my own, and I highly recommend this as a group activity. What's great is that Class Cooking is not only next door to Burnt Bridge Cellars but the same couple who owns Class Cooking also co-owns the winery. They utilize both spaces, at least for our private event. And the wine is delicious!

I cannot say enough about John and Dyann at the Refuge Chef! They provided the amazing catering for…read moreour small wedding at the Overlook House in north Portland. It began with a personalized menu based on our preferences and ideas, tasted at their home in Ridgefield. We were immediately impressed with their responsiveness, creativity, and the focus on fresh, quality ingredients. During the wedding planning process, Dyann was helpful and friendly, offering to do many of the day-of tasks that I needed at a somewhat DIY venue. She put me at ease as she was very knowledgeable about timelines, flow, and keeping everything beautiful. They made it easier, providing table cloths and other materials, so we didn't have to search out as many bits and pieces for a single use. On the day of, everything ran perfectly smoothly. The food was beautiful, and many of our guests mentioned it was the best wedding food they'd ever had! The attention to detail demonstrated a care and thoughtfulness that belies their passion for their business. The menu included smoked salmon, beer-braised short ribs, and beautiful salads and sides. At one point, I noticed that the bubble wands I'd brought never made it to tables, and I commented on it as I walked into the house. I came out perhaps ten minutes later, and what magically appeared? Bubbles! Dyann heard me mention it and kindly took care of it! I recommend them without hesitation.
