Richie ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great time !!!! Very fun , noodles turned out great !!!!


Bruce ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Chef Mimi delivers an excellent class in pasta making. Despite the class size, she maneuvered the tight confines of the venue and assisted everyone to get great results from everyone. She also clearly demonstrated making Alfredo sauce, which was excellent.


Michelle ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Mimi's Class was so fun, and so easy to learn. My boys gave it to me as a Christmas present that we did together, made my heart full to be together. We definitely will be signing up for another class this spring to do together.



Whether you’re in it for date night, a fun night out with friends or just here to finally learn how to cook something that’s not dry, this cooking class is the perfect fit!
