Gifted my daughter a mother/daughter evening at Maricel's Kitchen. We learned the basics of Tai Cuisine and it was a great experience.

Chef Maricel gave a GREAT cooking class to our team over zoom. The team found it really easy to follow and everyone really enjoyed the class. It was a great team building activity and a lot of fun! Chef Maricel had different camera angles so everyone could easily follow and see what to do. Highly recommend her programs!!

This class was intimate and fun. Maricel and her staff made me feel comfortable in the kitchen and excited to make and eat something new. The food was delicious. All the recipes we used were shared; we were walked through each step by step with love and care. It was the best cooking class experience. And the location was clean, convenient and beautifully decorated.

So much fun and informative! Maricel , Paul & staff are absolutely delightful. The food is beyond delicious! We attended the Filipino class and considering my Filipino heritage, I can't wait to make the recipes for my family. Thank you Maricel! We are looking forward to attending another class!

Had the best experience with Maricel in her kitchen learning Japanese soul food AND Korean hotpot! She is charismatic, engaging and incredibly knowledgeable, but more than that she makes the night fun and enjoyable. I highly recommend and look forward to my next class!

I took the Japanese Ramen and Gyoza class and it was so much fun! I learned so many tips and tricks that I would've never thought about and while I'm not a frequent cook, the way things were simplified and made accessible definitely has encouraged me to try the gyoza recipe at home. I will be attending more classes in the future.

Had a great time learning and cooking with my fiance. Everything was easy to understand, fun, and tasted delicious! I felt like there was a lot of value and I didn't have to go into the city for a fun cooking experience. We expect to be back and look forward to cooking here again!
