What an amazing experience! I went from a person who defers to the microwave too often to knowing how and having the confidence to cook really amazing meals. The food and instruction, team atmosphere, and overall environment were nothing short of incredible.
My sister, mother, and I took Culinary Boot Camp last fall. It was one of the most amazing and life-changing classes I have ever taken. I never imagined I would use this class in my everyday life as much as I have.
I took Culinary Boot Camp and felt it was a good investment of money and time. The chefs brought their industry experience and entertaining delivery. The group team assignments were done well—not only did I enjoy working with the teammates, but I learned from them too.
