It was a great experience...

Published on Feb, 2025

It was a great experience and our gumbo was better than some restaurants. We can’t wait to make it at home.

Amazing experience with Chef Maria!

This was an awesome experience. Booked this with my husband and had a great time with Chef Maria V. She is fascinating to listen to and was great at helping us cook a pork chop (something I was pretty intimidated by!). Met some great people in our class as well, only had 6 ppl in our session so it was pretty intimate. Food was amazing, portions were great. Would highly recommend this experience for anyone visiting NOLA!

Wonderful! Highly recommend for locals or visitors

Wonderful experience with Chef Cindy! Anniversary activity couldn't have been better! Learned how to make local dishes and most importantly an amazing roux.

Deliciously satisfied

Chef Maria was amazing. Food we cooked was delicious and what a great group to cook with. Will book again next time. I urge you to take a cooking class at the New Orleans Cooking School in the French Quarter. You won’t be disappointed.

Fun and delicious activity for couples and small groups

We did a hands on cooking class and it was fantastic! Chef Tom gave us a great overview of the history of New Orleans food. We made seafood gumbo, crawfish pie, and crepes with bananas foster. The class size was 10 people and each group of two had a cooking station. It was really fun and delicious!
