Fran is a very capable teacher. She runs an organized class with clear explanations and she allows time for questions and feedback. This truly was the best steak I've made. The potatoes and onions were amazing. My husband has asked that I make this menu once a week!

Aside from the audio being spotty at times, it was a good experience. The instructions were clear and the potato technique was interesting.

Fran is east to follow and takes her time making sure you’re caught up and ready for the next step. Also explains why things are done a certain way.

I really appreciate the way this chef uses the down-time for one dish to make progress with another dish. What looks like a very complicated meal gets done in what seems like a short amount of time. I also enjoy the tips she shares from her Cordon Bleu experiences. This Bordelaise wine sauce was delicious and I look forward to making it on my own using her methods.
