My cooking classes are fun and filling. They are informal and affordable because they are hosted by my clients in their homes. The classes are 3 hours in length and include 4-6 recipes that I cook for you, from scratch. I am always reminding my clients to come hungry because I like to feed everyone well. You definitely get your money’s worth!!!
