Recent reviews of Date Night Mardi Gras Magic: Taste of New Orleans Cooking Class

  • 5/5 from Giancarlo Bruni, attended Jun 2026: Our teacher was fantastic. She did a brief overview of their teaching philosophy; following professional kitchen procedures. We then got to demos and cooking our jambalaya, cornbread, and seared chicken. Everything was fantastic flavor wise. The chicken was overcooked but I blame the meat thermometer ;). Overall fantastic experience.
  • 5/5 from Monica L Bouldin, attended Feb 2026: Chef Jen was a fun, and patient instructor. She created a wonderful atmosphere with muaic and New Orleans party favors.And the food came out amazing. The only weird thing was that the cornbread didn't brown, but that wasn't her fault. The recipes were easy to follow and we will definitely make them at home. Would definitely recommend this class and may even take it again!
