The children made a wonderful Italian meal. They started off with their own creative Panini sandwich with a variety of cheese and meats. They were cooked to perfection and there were no left overs. Thank you so much Jr. Chefs.
Caesar salad was very crisp and the dressing was perfect.
Chicken picatta was so tender and delightful.
Vegetarian pasta primavera was creamy and full of wonderful vegetables. Mushrooms were the favorite of all chefs.
All your desserts were a work of art. Thank you for a fun evening of good food with fine diners. Chow for Now…

My granddaughter, Emily, had a wonderful time and was excited to win first place. She can't wait to attend another class. Since she was a young child she loved to cook/bake and help out in the kitchen, so now she can start preparing a family favorite, chicken picatta for the family. What a great learning experience. Thanks Sensei!!!

Eric had a wonderful time as always. He was very impressed with the cooking techniques offered and explained them to us in detail. He had fun preparing and eating the meal. We appreciate and love Sensei Kathi very much. It is very kind of her to educate our children on how to make healthy eating choices. Thank you so much Sensei Kathi!
