I did this cooking class with my adult son who is a real ‘foodie’ and loves to cook. We both really enjoyed the class which started with a trip to a local market followed by the cooking class and meal. The food was delicious and it was a great experience. We were picked up and dropped off to our hotel so the whole experience was great! Would definitely recommend.

My partner and I had a wonderful time learning from Wandee in her kitchen. The market visit beforehand was so informative and really added to the experience. The entire outing was charming and delicious as we got to enjoy the fruits of our labor. Wandee was featured on The World Cook Season 2 on Amazon Prime. We watched the segment after the meal, which added a nice personal touch.
