    I am extremely upset that this class was such a rip-off. While the instructor was nice, to say that this was a “cooking” class is a HUGE overstatement, and quite simply a lie. Upon arrival, you are placed at a table with 3 other people (4 in total) where you are presented with a bunch of pre-measured and pre-distributed “ingredients” (which are mostly seasonings [pepper, salt] and condiments [ketchup, mayo, and tomato paste]). By this point, it becomes completely evident that you will NOT be cooking a meal, but rather splitting pre-done tasks among the 4 individuals at your table to “prepare” one meal that you’ll share. For $79 per person, you’d think that they could provide each individual with the opportunity to create their own meal. I say “create” because no actual “cooking” was done by the participants… 95% of the cooking was done by the instructor, (not you!), including food that she pre-cooked and prepared before we arrived. As a student, you WILL NOT touch an oven. To think that cutting onions and dicing tomatoes is going to be fun, informative, or educational for grown adults is absolutely absurd. Since there are not enough tasks for all four people, most of your time is spent watching someone else stir the “sauce” in a bowl. You will not walk away from this class having learned anything that you did not already know prior to coming. If you’re hoping to learn how to cook, you WILL NOT LEARN anything useful in this course. If you are looking for a fun and playful date night out, again, I stress, you will NOT get that here, as everything was primarily hands OFF and painfully rushed. At the very least, if you were looking to walk away having eaten a “semi-decent” meal, I am sorry to tell you that you will NOT have that here either. (One of the sauces you learn to make is literally ketchup and mayo mixed together!!!!). This class “taught” ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that any person capable of reading a recipe can’t already do themselves… DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE!!! They will rob you of $79 to do nothing more than chop vegetables, pour condiments, and stand around watching other people stir a mixture of basic ingredients… SAVE YOUR MONEY!!! THIS IS CLASS IS A COMPLETE WASTE!!!!

    VERY disappointing! Before you waste your money, let me warn you, as a "Beginner," I learned absolutely NOTHING. You share a table with 3 other people (4 people in total), and for the most part, you just stand there, watching OTHER people "cook." I use that term loosely since you'll do NO ACTUAL COOKING!! Everything was already pre-measured for us, and we never even used the oven!! All we did was mindlessly dump containers of pre-measured sauce, seasoning, and other ingredients in, and mix. The patatas bravas were a COMPLETE WASTE of time. All we got to do was stir mayo and ketchup in a pan until it turned into a weirdly warm, condiment swimming pool... Meanwhile, the potatoes were already cut, peeled, AND PRE-ROASTED! I'm sorry, but how is that even REMOTELY better than following a YouTube tutorial, which is Free?? If I'm spending $80 DOLLARS, I should not be forced to stand there, pointlessly, WATCHING OTHER PEOPLE perform the tasks because there is NOT ENOUGH for us to do!! Seriously: If you're ACTUALLY trying to LEARN something, DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE. You'll waste a ridiculous amount of money to STAND AROUND and CHOP TOMATOES!!!

    The class was good in general. Food and instructor were great. My one comment is that the cost per class is a little high considering you're sharing the cooking process with multiple other people (not in your party). There was a decent amount of standing around and watching other people do things. We still had fun though and everything was delicious.

Question from kashmira a.
Hi, is this a hands-on class? Are we going to cook independently?
Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse Staff
Hi Kashmira! Taste Buds Kitchen specializes in hands-on group cooking classes where each table will have about 4-5 participants cooking together. Students will cook for about 90 minutes or so and savor the dishes they've created the last 20-30 minutes family-style with their table. Hope this helps!
