I had an amazing experience at ABC Bartending School in Greensboro, NC! I attended the 2-week night…read moreclass (4 classes total) and was actually able to complete the course by class 3 because of how well everything was taught. Tevin was extremely thorough. He didn't just teach us how to make drinks -- he broke down how to properly run a bar, handle real-life bar scenarios, and navigate challenging situations professionally. The hands-on training and realistic examples really made a difference. He also made the class fun and engaging, which helped everything stick. I created my own study guide from the notes I took in class, and as long as you pay attention and take good notes, you will pass with no problem. One thing I really appreciated is that they allow you to come back as often as you like for additional practice. That shows they truly care about their students being confident and prepared, not just passing the test. 10/10 experience. I left feeling knowledgeable, confident, and ready to step behind a bar. Highly recommend! Great experience from start to finish!

We attended the Summer Vegetarian class. Kate gave a brief intro to what each station entailed, and you could pick one that you wanted to work on. Kate and her assistant would walk around and help as needed, and call everyone over at certain parts to show how things were being prepared or cooked. Most of the food she was as using she had bought at the farmers market. We had some appetizers while finishing up the cooking, and at the end we all sat together in the dining room for a full meal. All of the food was delicious! Kate sends the recipes out via email after the class. I will definitely be trying some of them out at home, and looking to take a class in the future. Don't expect to master any of the recipes during this class, but you will gain some tips and come away with a full belly and some new recipes. You can bring your own beer and wine, and she also provided water and lemonade for us. Our class ran about 30 minutes over, so depending on how many dishes she has planned be prepared for class to go a little longer.

Classes are out of her home in a residential area, so follow the directions she sends you. She had done most of the prep work, showed us each recipe, and then let all of the participants wash their hands and get to work. Everyone wore a mask, and outdoor seating was available for anyone not comfortable dining indoors just. We got to rotate through various stations and Katie did some of the more intensive cooking, like the deep frying. She was very helpful with tips and checking to see how everyone was doing. After everything was cooked, we sat down to eat. Boy, there was a lot, and everything was delicious! We made gnocchi, pierogies, momos, potstickers, samosas, and apple dumplings. Water was provided and you can BYOB if you like. It did take a little bit longer than scheduled but not too much so. She followed up a few days later by emailing the recipes to us. A great experience for foodies!

DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY. I had my wedding last weekend and…read morethis company was supposed to cater and bartend. Well, first they showed up 2 hours late. We had agreed on them showing up between 1-2 pm and they showed up at 3, 30 mins before my wedding started. Then we were supposed to have a hot chocolate and apple cider bar (that we paid for) and they only brought hot chocolate. In our contract they were supposed to provide coffee pumps and did not bring them. Instead we had to resort to using the venues (thank goodness they had some). They refused to set up the hot chocolate bar that we paid for them to do, they handed the hot chocolate to my coordinator and made her do it. Second the menu we had agreed on was wrong. We were supposed to have chicken as one of our entrees and they did not bring any, only steak. This resulted in the venue coordinator running to foodlion to go get some so they wouldn't run out of food for the guests. The sides we ate were not of the quality that we had at the tasting. Seemed like they went to Walmart and got frozen sides and made them right before. Third, we paid for there to be desserts and they only brought one of the three we paid for. Then they put the one dessert they brought out with the appetizers so it was gone before it could be put on the dessert table. This resulted in the venue coordinator going to foodlion to get desserts so something could be put on the table. Fourth, the bartender refused to put the beer on ice so it was warm while being served. My coordinator had to tell him multiple times to put it on ice and he finally did so right before cocktail hour. I made multiple signs for the menus to be placed with the food and we were only able to use one because everything was wrong. They only send 2 employees for a 125 people wedding. Over all the professionalism of this company is subpar at best. We have pictures of everything and receipts from when the coordinator had to pay out of pocket to fix their mistake. Before the wedding, their office manager was emailing me back very fast to confirm the menu, set up times, and to make sure they had all of the information correct. Now they will not email me back and I have only heard from them once regarding the issue. I was trying to talk directly to the owner and the office manager was the only one to respond to me. She said "she is trying to resolve the issue"... there is nothing to resolve the wedding already happened. We just want our money back. Paid way too much for this TERRIBLE service. Save yourself the time and DO NOT book this catering company.

We were huge, huge fans of Sammy G's previously and generally speaking everything is roughly the…read moresame but there have been some changes that really lower the review for me. I don't know if the ownership has changed or if they just made some decisions to alter things, but either way it changes our opinion of the place. First and most important for us, they used to be the only place we were aware of in NC to get Gluten Free Crab Cakes which was a major reason we frequented Sammy G's. That has apparently changed and the new Gluten Free menu is basically just the meats menu which is a real shame. It looks like they have made some other small changes to the regular menu as well, none of those were all that concerning but the loss of this GF treat is a real blow for us. If you are a celiac and found reviews about the GF crab cakes, please be aware they appear to be gone now. Additionally, the prices across the menu seem to have gone up by a few dollars. When you consider that Sammy G's was never a cheap place to eat, and given the state of the economy these days, that actually does come out to a noticeable change and makes it harder to justify going. However, with the loss of the old GF options, it's unlikely we'll come back anywhere near as often as we used to.

Upon entering the shop you are quick transported to a whimsical dreamland full of sprinkles and tiny pleasures. The lady at the counter was warm and welcoming, patient as I made up my mind. As I ogled the beautiful case full of perfectly iced creations, the choice was clear. Red Velvet. I was given my chosen cake in a cute box, a great touch I believe! The cupcake was moist, appropriately textured, but not too moist, for it would fall completely apart. When you break open the cupcake it remains intact, and doesn't crumble or lose integrity, this is key. Frosting was perfectly sweet and balanced, with the deep notes of the cream cheese. If you seek a perfect cupcake, come here and try a few flavors. You will not be disappointed!!

Pepper Moon Catering catered our 25-year high school reunion at Congdon Yards in downtown High…read morePoint. The food was tasty and service was good. If you're looking for a solid caterer in the Piedmont Triad region, I recommend Pepper Moon. Pepper Moon catered heavy hors d'oeuvres at the event. It was a simple setup: one long self-serve buffet of small bites. No passed trays, action stations, or anything like that. For us, it got the job done. From what I recall, we had teriyaki chicken skewers with sweet chili sauce, meatballs with marinara, biscuits (I think they were cheddar biscuits), black bean cakes with a yogurt sauce; a cubed cheese display with cheddar, Swiss, and pepper jack cheeses, grapes, berries, and assorted crackers; and a fresh fruit display with cantaloupe, honeydew, pineapple, grapes, and berries. There may have been a dessert/sweet as well, but I don't remember. We had a special reunion cake, but I'm not sure if it was provided by Pepper Moon. Just under 100 guests were expected, but only about half that showed up, so we had a lot of leftovers. There were boxes for us to take leftovers home. In general, the menu served was safe with several crowd-pleasers. My wife really enjoyed the food and went back for seconds. Her favorites were the meatballs (soft and moist) and black bean cakes. My go-to was the teriyaki chicken skewers. The chicken was tender and appetizing and I've been a fan of that sweet Thai chili sauce for chicken since I was little. There was a cash bar for drinks. I'm not sure if that was Pepper Moon, Congdon Yards, or another vendor. The Pepper Moon staff were formally dressed (the event was dressy casual), polite, and attentive. One of the employees was very nice to me and really made sure I was taken care of as I made my way down the buffet line the first time. I think they were expecting more guests, so they may have been a bit overstaffed. Whatever the case, they did a good job. Pepper Moon's offices and facilities building is located just south of the airport on the Greensboro-High Point city border.

Amazing! This has officially become our go to cocktail lounge locally here in Greensboro…read more We had excellent cocktails, super fun service, and the ambiance was exactly what we wanted for an intimate and classy evening out. Our bartender, LT, was so much fun. Every drink was spot on. An espresso martini for my wife and a bold old fashioned for me. On top of that, LT clearly knows his stuff when it comes to both cocktails and bourbon knowledge. I added a 1oz neat pour of 12yr Weller. Let's just say this place is a Weller lover's dream. The owner is a huge Weller fan and keeps the lounge stocked with pretty much every bottle imaginable. Something that's nearly impossible to find in Greensboro. And then there's the showstopper: a Weller Millennium bottle sitting on display. At $600 for a 1oz pour, it's pure eye candy for me. I'll just admire it from one of the comfy couches or large chairs and keep my wallet happy. Whenever we're looking for a classy evening out in downtown Greensboro, Muddle will be our first stop every time.
