We booked a cooking class at this reputable cooking school on our visit in February and we were certainly not disappointed. Recommend doing this one of the first days you visit New Orleans. The staff are very informative, knowledgable of the history of the area and of how the different foods came to be! Family run school. So lots of funny stories of family and of people who settled the New Orlean area. We did a morning class and loved the lunch that we watched being made -Shrimp Creole and Chicken and Andjoule Gumbo with Banana Foster for dessert! Portions are large. Great experience and would definitely do it again! Gift store is reasonably priced and picked up quite a few gifts - ( not just the touristy gifts you can find everywhere )for family. LOVED IT!!!

We were four women on a "girls" trip for our annual trip to New Orleans. We are always looking for different things to do. One off the women had done this and really didn't mind doing it again. This is a cooking class where we watched the chef, Scott, prepare shrimp creole, chicken fracassee and bread pudding which were all delicious. He was funny and told many interesting stories while cooking. And we were also given pralines which might be the best in the city. The owner, Nita, also participated and was delightful. I definitely recommend this one.

This class is amazing. Even if you have no interest in learning to cook, the demonstration in fun and informative and the food is AMAZING. Loved the shop and everything in it, loved Cheve our instructor, loved Nita the owner and loved eating gumbo, shrimp Creole, bananas foster and fresh pralines.
