The cooking class was not as advertised. Not as the picture advertised. Only one person taught the class. The location was not clear on your website. There was no bus to pick us up. The location of the class was way out of the way and so hard to find that 4 people could not even find the place. Only three of us showed up. We took taxis to get there and back at a cost of $60. The web site advertised wine and beverages would be served. They were not even offered. A disappointment all around.
