We had an amazing time! It was the perfect way to spend some time together for an all virtual team and connect during the holidays. Allan was great at explaining step by and patient with us. We now have a full kit to contiunue doing this on our own! The only regret is that it didn't last longer!

NEW Class - Vintage Cake Class with Christina
Perfect activity for a girls’ night out! Christina is such a fun instructor with lots of great suggestions for perfecting your cake decorating technique and correcting issues. This class built nicely on the foundation from Cake Decorating 101 and introduced fun new piping styles. The finished cakes were the cutest ever!!

My friends and I had a great time! Monica was lovely, she came around to help if someone needed but otherwise let us enjoy the time and a bunch of adults in their 30s got to act like kids at craft time!

Wine Pairing Dinner with Small Vineyards
Incredible experience! The food and wine pairings were excellent. Generous food portions and wine pours. Not only was the food delicious, the presentation was beautiful. Jamie and the team took great care of all of us!

Brunch with Benji: Chunky Scarf Workshop with My Dog
We attended with a dog group and even though I am notorious for not being able to knit or crochet, I left with a gorgeous scarf! The instructors were kind and helpful; highly recommend. I’m excited to receive the video tutorial via email so I can try again before returning for a different project class!

Character Macaron Making Class
I'm so glad i found this class while constantly scrolling through instagram. Jesse is such a wonderful teacher, very kind and patient as well. I certainly had a wonderful time piping all these cute macarons. Highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to spend an evening learning a new skill in a fun and clean environment.

The instructors was knowledgeable and enthusiastic, guiding us through various techniques and offering personalized advice. The class provided all the materials, including fresh greenery and a variety of decorations. I loved the creative freedom we had to design our wreaths, and the small group size made it easy to get one-on-one help. The holiday snacks and beverages were a nice touch, too. By the end, I had a beautiful wreath to take home and a newfound appreciation for wreath-making. It was a fun, fulfilling experience that I'd highly recommend to anyone looking to get into the holiday spirit. Can't wait to do it again next year! + more

This is such a fun class. Amesia is a great teacher and provides PLENTY of festive greenery. Bottle Bacchanal is such a cozy spot too and it's easy to get carried away shopping for all kinds of wine, spirits, and non-alcoholic aperitifs. Would do this one again next year!

Cooking Class: Chinese from Scratch
We had a great time in Grace's cooking class, making dan dan noodles, pastel de nata (portugese egg tarts), and also chili oil. She gave a brief overview of what we would be making, and then guided us through making each step. She was also able to create a gluten free version of the recipes for our group as well.

Afterwards, we were able to eat and everything was delicious (partly because we made it ourselves!) Since we made everything from scratch, including the puff pastry for the tarts, and the noodles, which we made using a pasta machine, it was quite involved, and there were several moments where all of us were focused on different tasks. I look forward to trying to make some of these foods at home sometime. Thanks Grace for a fun and delicious evening of cooking and learning. + more

Anytime Party Appetizers with Kristi Fountain
It was a lot of fun. We took a class on appetizers and canapés. It was very professional. The setting was really nice, and I learned a lot. On top of that it was fun and it was great to be able to order a drink and enjoy cooking with a friend.

Then she taught us how to make the meringue and we got to practice "folding" the meringue and mixing it with a color before piping. The macarons are so cute! There aren't many baking classes out there that teach cute characters/shapes so this was such a fun and unique experience. Highly recommend! + more

Pasta Making 101 with Jake Thompson
The first section of the class was preparing the marinara sauce. This part is not hands on but has great information for future use. He also prepared a white sauce ahead of time and provided recipes for both of these sauces. Then we got down to the pasta making while the sauces slowly cooked.

Then we got down to the pasta making while the sauces slowly cooked. One thing I love about these cooking classes is that the ingredients are already measured and ready for you to use. After making our pasta dough, we used machines to make the desired thickness and cut into spaghetti or linguine noodles. We then cooked our fresh pasta, chose our desired sauce and plated it with a salad and focaccia bread that Jake brought to share. Jake was an enthusiastic and friendly instructor and he did a great job for his first class... especially his timing for introducing the materials. He was eager to answer questions and was knowledgeable with his answers. His enthusiasm for pasta and sharing his love of making it definitely came through. Thanks Jake! + more

Joan is a wonderful teacher. She covers basics that no one even thinks to mention, like how to most effectively clean your brush. I had taken courses before and still learned a lot even in the first lesson. She's also encouraging without being condescending, and encourages creativity. I would definitely take classes with her again!

Pasta Making Class: Hand Rolled Cavatelli Pasta
Wonderful class—can’t wait to try another! The chef was so pleasant and helpful. The pasta we made came out delicious. We left with some really helpful tips on what to look for while shopping for ingredients and how to maximize flavor. I never knew how easy it could be and I can confidently say I’ll be making pasta from scratch from here on out!

Cake Decorating Basics Workshop
I had a great time learning basics of cake decorating. The instructor was so easy to follow, perfect for a total beginner like myself. She was so attentive and talked to each group and/or person individually giving feedback and tips. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn the basics.

Thank you for offering this class. This is my third class at Kitchen Connection. I take each class with a different family member. Each class has been fun and engaging.. I wanted to learn how to make pasta, I did. Jake was very organized with all of our stations, showed how to make the pasta step by step. He made two sauces for the class to put on our pasta, made foccacia for us and a kale salad.Thank you for offering this class. This is my third class at Kitchen Connection.

Character Macaron Making Class
This was my third time taking Jesse’s macaron class! This time, my boyfriend (who has had no prior baking experience) tagged along, and we made Christmas themed character macarons. Jesse is always patient, and her classes are always time managed very well. I highly recommend Jesse’s class for a perfect weekend date, or if you want to learn something new!

A fantastic creative outlet for kids, and for nurturing their creativity. My daughter loved finger knitting a snowman, and can’t wait to return to create more beautiful crafts.

Watercolor Painting Class: Koi Carps
Really personalized class with a knowledgeable and personable teacher. A reference picture was provided, as was a glass of wine, and instruction! Loved the final picture. I would have preferred a little less hands-on help during the main process myself, but it was great to have someone able to paint the fish fins.

The Crafty Lounge is becoming my daughter’s favorite place. The items she has made here are cute and she feels really proud of what she creates.
