Had an absolutely wonderful time at Hailey’s cooking class! Her positive energy and encouraging attitude made the entire experience so fun and welcoming. Hailey did a fantastic job making sure everyone felt included and had something to contribute, regardless of their cooking skill level. We made pho, bun cha, spring rolls, a fresh salad, and wrapped it all up with an incredibly delicious egg coffee. If you're looking for a fun, inclusive, and delicious cooking experience, I highly recommend Hailey's class!

We really enjoyed the class! If you are looking for a fun activity, good food, and learning a bit about Vietnamese cooking, would highly recommend. We had Vy as our instructor, and she was very good at directing the class and making sure everyone was included. She went above and beyond to be a good host!
