He had great info on what to buy and where and things to look out for. I’ll definately be taking another class at the kitchen engine and from Nick!
• 5/5 from Emily Willet, attended Nov 2025: Our instructor Nick was great. This class was paid for using a gift card. I have some dietary restrictions, and Nick was proactive and accommodating with that. He was also a good teacher and made it accessible to cook Thai food. I'll definitely be using what I learned!
• 5/5 from Debra Hendrickson, attended Nov 2025: My friend and I came to learn more about Thai cooking. Very informative and enjoyed Nick as our instructor. Nice setting and felt very comfortable in our class. Food was really good!
• 5/5 from Sue Barden, attended Nov 2025: My first cooking class at The Kitchen Engine was Thai Curry Bases with Nick Ivers. I thoroughly enjoyed this class. Nick demonstrated techniques while continually interacting, answering questions and giving tips and suggestions aside from the detailed recipes received. The 3 meals were delicious! Nick’s class is 5 star!
• 5/5 from Marybeth Bryant, attended Feb 2025: I loved this class! Nick is a fantastic chef and instructor. I found the variety of information he graciously shared to be way more than I expected. From the best places in town to get fresh ingredients to giving to being kind enough to answer cooking questions outside the class's scope. I learned a ton and will look forward to more classes from this instructor in the future.
• 5/5 from Shelby Lambdin, attended Feb 2025: A group of us went for a friend’s birthday and had a blast! Nick did a great job breaking everything down in to simple steps and keeping the group engaged. Not to mention the food was amazing.
• 5/5 from Heidi Harris, attended Feb 2025: Nick is a great teacher! He is very approachable and patient in answering questions. He is very knowledgeable and his tips are very helpful. I would love to learn how to make drunken noodles and other Thai dishes. I will keep my eye out for any new classes that nick offers in the future.
• 5/5 from Justin Smith, attended Feb 2025: You make delicious curry in this class, which deepens my love for Thai cuisine! These recipes I will definitely be trying at home. The only thing that can be better is for the instructor to do a better job at announcing what ingredients he is demonstrating. There were a few times where the chef added an ingredient without telling the class what it was. This can make it confusing as to what step of the recipe we are on. Otherwise perfect class and an absolute blast :) I recommend for participants to take a photo of every ingredient used. This makes it easier to find them when shopping at an unfamiliar Asian grocery store.
• 5/5 from Kim Ruona, attended Feb 2025: Really enjoyed the class. Good explanations of the spices and herbs. I won’t be afraid to try Thai at home on my own. Lots of good tips. The only thing I didn’t like were the uncooked veggies in the Massaman curry. The carrots were large where if they had been sliced thinner it would have been better.
• 4/5 from Brett Gourley, attended Feb 2025: I felt that Nick was knowledgeable and helpful. The class description stated, "In this class you will learn how to create Thai Curry Bases, how to use fresh, how to freeze for later". I was disappointed that we used store bought bases to make curries, rather than make our own curry bases. That being said the demonstration for how to make bases was very helpful and took the mystery out of making these bases. I also learned what can be added to improve my own Thai curries at home.
• 5/5 from Samantha Brown, attended Dec 2024: Nick’s Thai classes are the best! I thought the structure of this class was well done with Nick preparing several curry pastes and explaining what makes each one unique, then having us use the different pastes to create our own dish. It broke up the demo portions of class nicely and gave us the opportunity to eat throughout class. This class also had so much food to eat! I appreciate the depth Nick goes into around ingredients and what they bring to a dish, where to shop/what brands he likes, and options for substitutions. Looking forward to more of his classes in the future!
• 5/5 from Stephenie Stephens, attended Dec 2024: My husband and I signed up for the Thai Curry Class as a date night because we love Thai food. Nick taught us how to make three different curries in the 2 1/2 hours we were with him and we got to eat all of them. He was a fantastic teacher and his knowledge of curry was impressive. We appreciated the opportunity to not only make our own dish, but also ask questions and learn how to customize as needed for taste and any dietary needs. We look forward to taking another class with him.
• 5/5 from Jennifer Brock Olson, attended Dec 2024: Nick was an amazing teacher and his curry dishes were so amazing! We are very excited to bring our new curry knowledge to those around us.
• 5/5 from Elizabeth Deruyter, attended Nov 2024: Thai cooking with Nick Ivers was great, the food delicious and the learning opportunity exactly what we wanted. We planned this as a fun social event with friends and enjoyed it tremendously.
• 5/5 from Mary Squires, attended Nov 2024: Had my questions answered on how to make curry and where to buy ingredients and what to expect when cooking with them. Thank you

• 5/5 from Patti Smith, attended Nov 2024: I learned a lot. Was a fun class. Nice balance of hands on participation and listening and watching.
• 5/5 from Sonia Wagoner, attended Mar 2024: We were gifted the cooking class for Christmas by our son. We picked the Thai class and it did not disappoint. The chef was very informative with fun tips, and the food was amazing. The class was relaxing as we watched him prepare the food and explained techniques and substitutions The barista came around and took drink orders. The staff were all very friendly and we had a great experience. We would book again.
• 5/5 from Christopher Deforest, attended Mar 2024: Nick was an excellent teacher, unstuffy, dealt with kitchen realities like I do, explained basic techniques as we went along and answered all sorts of questions on the fly. Oh, and the food was delicious!
• 5/5 from Denise Johnston, attended Mar 2024: I love a sunday class, it fits in nicely with my schedule. I enjoy taking classes at the kitchen engine, and I am impressed with the new kitchen for classes, it works really great to see the chef cook or prep on the screen. All the ingredients were fresh and we enjoyed smelling and feeling each item. I look forward to more classes with Nick Ivers. my daughter and I had been hoping for a curry or thai class so to have a thai curry class was the best class for us. He said he'll be doing other classes and I look forward to all the ones he's offering.
• 5/5 from Shelley Lewis, attended Mar 2024: Nick was great - food was delicious! Looking forward to giving it a try at home. Thank you!
• 5/5 from Janet Vaughn, attended Mar 2024: Great class- Our host, Nick, was personable, funny and knowledgeable. The 3 dishes served included a number of the unique ingredients found in Thai cooking so was helpful to learn where to find them and what to look for. The curry was a little spicy for my tastes, but the flavor was excellent. Loved the salad and sticky rice!

• 4/5 from Corrine Manes, attended Sep 2023: I had a great time and learned a lot but I felt that it wasn't hands on enough. Forn$85 I just wish we were able to cook the meals instead of them being cooked in front of us. Instructor was friendly and informative I just feel I didn't get my money's worth without actually cooking anything.
• 3/5 from Paul, attended Sep 2023: nick knew his stuff but it was obvious he did not have expereince with this presentation in this specific setting i would have liked to see more detail and how to do more dishes, it may have been me but i did not feel liked i really learned how to make a dish
