This is a demonstration, not a class per se. That being said, it was the highlight of a great trip to New Orleans. Make sure you go to the morning session so you get lunch provided - it is great !!
Our cooking class was perfect. It should actually be called a demonstration rather than a hands on class. Our chef/host Sandra was great. She also works as a tour guide, so she provided a lot of history with the class. She started with the dessert (bread pudding) first, so it could bake while she prepared the the other dishes. First course: Shrimp and Artichoke soup. Something I never would have ordered had I seen it on a menu. It was Delicious!! Main course: Crawfish Etoufee. Better than the soup!! Followed by Bread Pudding and fresh made Pralines. Generous seconds were available for all dishes. Also included were water, iced tea and beer. All in all, it was a delightful 2-1/2 hours. We went to the 10:00 am. class and could not eat for the rest of the day. We had to cancel our 10:00 pm. dinner reservations. We were still full. I would highly recommend this class. They give you all of the recipes. And, if you are the cook at home, it's always better to see the dish being prepared to learn a few " tricks of the trade".
cook Anne was stupendous...this was so entertaining...she cooked, told jokes, gave a history of the different cultures making up New Orleans, and we got to eat the meal with free beer...I will do this again next time I visit !!!
The only issue we had with the class is that there was a small child attending which was somewhat disruptive. I recommend you do not allow children to attend. Also, please make it clear in the registration that lunch will be included.
Excellent class! Chef Kevin was informative and entertaining! Two and a half hours went by way too quickly! The red beans and rice, cornbread and pralines? YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!! I would highly recommend taking this class ...you won't be disappointed! Oh yes...I forgot ...the biscuits w/steen ...WOW!!!
The class was outstanding and Anne was so funny and informative-we loved her presentation, and she is a wonderful cook!! We will come back!!!
I was glad that I booked this class :
- the food was delicious
- got to have biscuits and cane syrup as an extra
- even the drinks were all about NOLA, the Abita beer and coffee with chicory, and the usual sweet tea and lemonade
- it was nice to see how the food is made
- I learned a lot about the history and culture of New Orleans
- and you can buy the spices for the recipes right after the class at the shop
Fantastic class! Instructor was informative and entertaining, food was delicious! Also got recipes so we can try making the food at home. I would highly recommend this class
