Our group absolutely loved the class and the food was so delicious. Our instructor was organized and so helpful when we were creating the food in our groups. I would recommend this class to everyone. It was such a fun night! Thank you so much.

PRIVATE CLASS: AN EVENING IN THAILAND on Fri 01/23

So, I detest cooking, but I didn't detest this class. I have a lot of anxiety around cooking but during this class I never felt like it was too much. Kalyn is easily approachable and is an excellent cooking guide. Dumb questions don't even phase her! Kalyn is happy to pass down her cooking secrets as though they aren't even secrets. I adored this class and you would too. Plus the food is phenomenal!

If you’ve always wanted to take a cooking class, Kalyn and Blooming Palate is the one to take it with! She is knowledgeable, personable, and chill! The food is fresh and all the dishes great! Everyone had fun chatting while we cooked and ate! I will definitely do it again!

CLASS: AN EVENING IN THAILAND on Thu 08/31

Enjoyed the meal and tips for preparation. Did not get to see what the others were preparing as well for this class but did pick up various tips and procedures beyond the recipe notes. Liked the variety of dishes that were prepared and the different tastes and textures of the dishes.

My husband and I enjoyed this class immensely. We learned a lot, had fun, and enjoyed delicious food. We consider ourselves "foodies" and good cooks, but we got new info and healthy recipes. Ed and I highly recommend Kalyn and this class. Janet

class was fun, learned several new ideas, and the food was great! Surprised at how good "healthy" could taste! class size was too large, 6-8 would be better.

CLASS: VIVID ITALIAN: BRIGHT FLAVORS AND FRESH INGREDIENTS on Thu 05/09

It was a lot of fun. I had been putting it off (going to a cooking class) for a few years whenever my wife brought it up. Never again. Kaylin (our cooking leader) was outstanding. She was informative, funny and patient (there were a lot of questions coming at her from many directions). We met a number of really nice people that had also signed up for the class. For some this was their third time back learning a different cuisine each time. As a guy all I can tell you is that if you want to score points with your wife or girlfriend, take her to a cooking class. The afterglow doesn’t wear off for a few days.

CLASS: FLAVORS OF THE MEDITERRANEAN on Thu 06/27

Chef Kaylyn's cooking class was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, she made the experience fun, welcoming, and easy to follow-even for those of us who aren't professional chefs. Her passion for fresh ingredients and bold flavors really showed, and every dish turned out delicious. Kaylyn explained techniques clearly, shared helpful cooking tips, and created such a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. The food was incredible(especially the fresh sourdough bread and humus!) and we left feeling confident we could recreate everything at home. I would recommend any class with Chef Kaylyn-it's the perfect mix of learning, great food, and a great time. We can't wait to take another class!

CLASS: VIVID ITALIAN: BRIGHT FLAVORS AND FRESH INGREDIENTS on Sat 01/31

Great class, excellent instruction, recipes and culinary information. The group was great fun, interesting and the meal we ate together at the end, allowed each group to report on the details of preparation. A great experience. The bread and hummus were incredible, the gnocchi's delicious, the salad superb and all those superlatives were deserved. AND, who knew that our host's banana ice cream can be eaten any day, any time? But it was special with the poached stuffed pears and date sauce?
