Cooking With Class

The idea of this place is great, but the execution, not so much. The class I went to was clearly over-booked and I ended up being crammed in a corner in which I could not see anything going on as far as cooking. It was nice that they had mirrors on the ceiling to watch the cooking, which is what I had to do, but that's not that much different than watching a cooking show on TV. I wasn't able to truly see what was going on and every meal tasted the same due to the addition of the same 2-3 unique ingredients in each dish served, even the dessert. The class I went to was a wine paired one, but we received less than half a glass of mediocre sparkling wine. I specifically took a taxi to the event because I figured we would be trying a bit more than that. It was not really a true wine tasting/pairing as advertised. The class wasn't cheap either at nearly $100 dollars. To top it all off, the elderly lady that owns the place was not very pleasant and she was extremely rude in her correspondence that my jaw actually dropped. I really wanted to like this place and learn some new techniques, but sadly I learned absolutely nothing from this class and the food was very average. I found myself scrambling to take notes the whole time to try and absorb all I could from the chef, but I didn't get much from it. Hopefully others had an appropriately booked class and actually learned something.
