A fantastic day! - The chef, Eric, was so knowledgeable and fun. He gave us a nice historical overview about Cajun and Creole cooking. He was organized and made the experience very memorable.

An awesome family experience - This is a truly wonderful experience. We took my father to NOLA to see the WW2 museum and decided this would be a nice indoor activity. My dad loved it. The class was small and Eric, the chef, was so attentive. It was a lot of fun.

Class you don’t want to miss! - This was my first cooking class ever and I had a blast. Wanted to learn how to make authentic gumbo and mission accomplished. Chef Terri was not only great but the history she shared of New Orleans was fantastic. If I ever get back to Nola, I will definitely take another class…red beans and rice 😊.

History Class combined with cooking fun - Great hands on experience. Great history lesson on the style of cooking. O lu suggestion is to post the weekly calendar online when booking. They have a samole menu which might not be the same as the day u arrive. Overall cooking class was excellent.

Sad day! - My most memorable part of this story is the fact, that tour operator CANCELED this event 3.5 hours prior to the event. If I have to give 24hrs notice without penalty, what penalty does the tour get??? I believe I deserve something, if the airlines need to compensate for a 4hr delay, I believe these tour companies should be no exception. Totally unprofessional, and I am concerned about future tours.
