Recent reviews of Thai Cooking: Beloved Noodle Dishes with Angie Pitini

• 5/5 from Kathy Peteron, attended Nov 2026: What a fun class! Great instructor and amazing recipes. Loved being able to watch the process prior to actually cooking each recipe.
• 5/5 from Marie White, attended Nov 2026: Over all great experiences! Every dish was fun and flavorful. Very hands on and fast paced.
• 5/5 from Colleen Byrne, attended Nov 2026: Amazing teacher, excellent instructions class moved along. Hands on chopping, wok cooking and lots to eat. Suggestions on local restaurants and Markets.
• 5/5 from Meryl and Bob Gersh, attended Nov 2026: I learned great wok technique and the differences between several Thai noodle dishes. Also the differences between Thai sauces and other Asian soy sauces. The food turned out delicious, and fed us for two meals x 2 people! I never realized that you could "char" noodles - that was a great addition. There was plenty of food/ingredients and space to work. Angie was enthusiastic and projected her voice which I appreciated. The class was quite rushed, though, and perhaps you'd consider a 2.5 hour class so folks could plan accordingly. Also, Angie provided us with her suggestions on local Thai restaurants and dishes - but these are hard to spell so I suggest she provide a handout with them along with her recipes. All in all - a fun and worthwhile class. I look forward to trying the dishes at home and using Thai Light (Seasoning) Sauce for more than just Thai dishes.
• 5/5 from Jennifer Hentges, attended Oct 2026: The class was very organized and Angie was a great instructor! Such a fun class.
• 5/5 from Ryan Faulkner, attended Oct 2026: Definitely fast paced but a little slower than the noodle making class I took the last time which helped. What I probably saw the most in this course was the difference in the methods of cooking the wide rice noodles and I appreciated finding out how to prepare them for the cooking without a microwave.

• 5/5 from Linda Johnson, attended Jul 2026: My son and I loved learning how to cook new dishes from a different part of the world than where we live. Our chef Angie was a great teacher, entertaining and so full of interesting and helpful information. Her passion for cooking and her love of her homeland sparked excitement in the room and made us want to learn more. Thank you for the wonderful experience that my son and I can continue at home as we try out our mew Thai recipes.

Prefer this model for sure! We will definitely be taking another! Love that it was on a Sunday too! Much more accessable for our busy schedule. Thank you!
• 4/5 from Karen Hoffman, attended Jul 2026: I think the class was a little too fast pace. And if that ingredients could have been listed in order on your sheet of how you use them would have been very helpful. It was hard to take notes and listen to the instructor at the same time. We really liked the instructor. She was very friendly and knowledgeable.
• 5/5 from Shaun Reeser, attended Jun 2026: The Thai noodle cooking class was great. We learned some easy but delicious recipes. I really appreciated the instructor for giving options to customize the dishes (more sweet, more sour, less heat, etc.). I also appreciated her sharing her knowledge of the Thai culture and her favorite sauces to use. I would definitely recommend this class and would take another from her.
• 5/5 from Tracy Aitken, attended Jun 2026: Very knowledgeable and gave good extra tips. Good was delicious!! Always have good classes at The Kitchen Engine.
• 5/5 from Mark Bales, attended Jun 2026: We learned to make three Thai dishes, one common and two less so. I learned how to properly separate that rice noodles, which had eluded me before the class. The dishes we made were tasty and simple to make once the basic steps are understood. We also learned how to control the amount of heat so that each person can season to their preference. Our teacher was clear, straightforward, and loud enough to hear clearly over a class where cooking teams were (understandably) talking as they prepared the dishes. We'll definitely be taking other classes at The Kitchen Engine!
• 5/5 from Kaila Schmidt, attended Jun 2026: My husband took Angie Pitinis class and she was such a joy! She is so sweet and knowledgeable. We love Thai cuisine and she gave us so many tips and tricks. The food was so delicious and had so much fun. She made the steps very easy to follow. We will be signing up for another class very soon! We highly recommend this as a fun date night :)

• 4/5 from Sherran Croy, attended Jun 2026: Learned how to stir fry with a wok using new ingredients from Thai cuisine. Loved that the teacher gave background about country and shared foods each region was known for. Very tasty food choices for class. And so much too.. only suggestion is make it 2 hour class so more time given between each dish. It felt very rushed tasting and then cooking next dish.
• 5/5 from Alyssa Johnson, attended May 2026: We did a birthday date! It was our first time going to a cooking class! The dishes we made Kuay teow Kua Yum woon sen Pad see ew These were delicious! I was surprised on the Thai chilies they were not to spicy to the point were i could be a dragon. But instead made me want to eat more for more of the zing! I an some of my family will definitely come back again! Date night family night or even just a you night! Try it you might be surprised at how much fun you have!

• 5/5 from Aaron Stromberger, attended Mar 2026: Really enjoyed this class. Learned a lot about Thai food and how it should be made. Flavor was out of this world good. Fun environment. Nick was fantastic and led the class well. I feel like we definitely got our money’s worth. Can’t wait to do another class sometime!
• 5/5 from Ruth Schmidt, attended Mar 2026: As in the last class I took from him, he provides background information about the culture of the dish, its cultural origins and context for understanding the flavors and how to prepare the ingredients. He is excellent in instruction and very willing to answer questions. The setting for the class is perfect for watching the food prep and the students preparing the dish. I especially appreciate the 4 or 5 helpers that are great in assisting the students and more than pleasant to everyone. A+

• 5/5 from Jaclyn Numata, attended Mar 2026: Nick was a fantastic instructor. You can tell how knowledgeable he is about cooking concepts in general and he does a great job explaining in a manner that is easier to follow (for those of us who are beginners). The phad see ew was the best I have ever eaten and really fairly simple to make at home. The Kitchen Engine is a lovely venue; very comfortable with great instructors and helpful support staff. Would definitely recommend this class!

• 5/5 from Roger Reese, attended Feb 2026: I learned 2 dishes using rice noodles, Pad Thai and Pad See Ew. Nick Ivers was engaging in how he brought everyone into the experience of Thai cooking. Additionally he demonstrated making a dressing for a noodle based cold salad. The kitchen/classroom is, as always, exceptional. What I like most is that you are invited in to a well prepared and taught class that leaves you wanting more
• 5/5 from Karen Will, attended Feb 2026: Really enjoyed the Thai class. Nick was very informative and entertaining. Loved the hands on cooking. It’s always great to learn from professionals like Nick. Thank you.

• 5/5 from Debbie Leamer, attended Jan 2026: Our daughter got us a gift certificate for Christmas. We learned a lot about Thai cooking. We actually think we can replicate the recipes at home and expand our menus. Our teacher was great. Explained without getting too detailed, personable, great sense of humor, allowed questions, very positive and made the cooking class very enjoyable. Very professional kitchen and very organized. The assistants quietly slipped in and took care of us. It was nice that all ingredients were premeasured and in their own containers so we didn't fumble. It was nice to order a drink too.
• 5/5 from Ken & Elsa Johnson, attended Jan 2026: This was our 2nd class with Chef Nick. He did an amazing job of explaining each process. He's fun and engaging! We'll be back for another Thai class. The staff helping out did a wonderful job also.
• 5/5 from Kyle Lampi, attended Jan 2026: We really enjoyed Nick’s class. He was very knowledgeable and created a fun environment
• 4/5 from Kallie Neal, attended Jan 2026: Loved the class! Joined it for fun with a few xoworkers, low key and easy to follow along.
• 4/5 from Luke Qualey, attended Jan 2026: We loved the class! Nick was great, funny, and informative! We recommend the Blanc Lime white wine to order while you cook. The only thing that could make this class better would be a Thai inspired desert, but otherwise amazing! Definitely reccomend!
• 5/5 from Jennifer Mills, attended Nov 2025: this was our first cooking class and we're hooked! Chef Nick was great at explaining and demonstrating and we learned a lot! We are excited to try some Thai dishes at home and even feel brave enough to venture into the Asian Markets in town with our new knowledge of what to look for. I'd recommend this class or any of his classes....honestly thinking about the curry class he was talking about.
• 5/5 from Linda Penfield, attended Nov 2025: Learning to cook two Thai dishes, both favorites of mine was the part I enjoyed the most. The finished product tasted like it came straight out of an authentic Thai restaurant! Nick Ivers was a great teacher. I had the privilege of sharing the stovetop, since I was attending the class alone. I had never attended a cooking class of any kind, so it was a real treat to work in your venue. The staff was terrific! I'm already signing up for more classes at the Kitchen Engine, including another "Nick Ivers" class.
• 5/5 from Brian and Cathy Yates, attended Nov 2025: Excellent class! Fun, informative, and yummy results. Great venue and instructor. Hope to return for another class.
