Saruj was the absolute best! The class was very beginner-friendly, with all the ingredients portioned out and ready for us to cut, prep, and cook. Saruj shared his personal experiences, made us feel comfortable as non-cooks, and immediately put us at ease. The recipe was delicious, and the portions were generous enough for us to take home leftovers!

Chef Saruj was fantastic! He did a great job teaching and made the class exciting. I love that he explained each ingredient in detail, where to find them, and what to use as substitutes if you don't have the exact ingredients available. This made it easy and exciting to try the recipe again at home!

The class was great! We loved that Saruj told us the story of pad Thai and explained all the ingredients very thoroughly. We had a great time cooking and the pad Thai tasted amazing. Would definitely do this again!

Saruj was so lovely and kind! He kept us laughing, walked us through everything in detail. I’m vegetarian and he accommodated me at every point, even showing me how I should change the recipe in order to get the same flavor and texture without eggs or meat. He was truly awesome. Excited to take one of his other classes soon!

Chef Saruj was personable, informative and taught the class in a way that makes a seemingly complex meal accessible to cook. My friends and I had an absolute blast, I hope to do another class taught by him again!!
