"Love all the different techniques we learned to cut safely, efficiently and with finesse!! I have such joy now whipping out my cutting board and practicing at home. I was kindly corrected on poor mechanics I didn’t realize I had… like cutting with my wrist instead of through my elbow and shoulder. Appreciate the pointers and I do feel less fatigued after food prepping for the week."
"Fantastic class! Learned how to cut an onion the proper way, which in itself makes this class worth it. One of the best parts is trying different knives and getting a feel for what works best for you, not to mention the $50 credit you get towards purchasing the knife! Highly reccomend!"
"I truly enjoyed my time at the Cut like a Chef class. The instructor was very friendly and knowledgeable. I got to try out several different knives and now I can use various techniques to create nice vegetable shapes in a very safe manner."
"The ‘cut like a chef’ course was a really fun time! Colleen was so helpful and lovely, we learned so much and will be recommending the class highly :) Thank you to the whole team for an all together great experience!"
"Learned a lot about knife skills and am already using them in my cooking."
"We did the knife skills workshop today in Ottawa. Our instructor, Julie, was awesome. She was knowledgeable, approachable and I learned a number of new ways to use a sharp knife. I enjoyed being able to try a variety of knives during the session. We were able to decide on an excellent knife to purchase at the end of the class. Thank you so much."
"Small class size, so very personal. Great to be able to work with different kinds of knives. Learned very effective and efficient techniques for cutting. When done I had much of the ingredients for a stirfry and a tomato rice, chicken vegetable soup. A fun event. Ryan was professional, gracious and informative."
"I had a fantastic time. I learned new knife skills, cutting, safety, usage and how many bad habits I have :). Definitely recommend this class."
"Brian and Michael are great teachers and the skills you learn are incredibly useful. Every member of staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They will happily talk to you about their products without applying any sales pressure. We would definitely take more classes here."
"I signed myself and my son up for the class and we learned so much! Brian was our teacher and he was thorough, encouraging, and engaging. He took the time to explain and demonstrated techniques that helped us feel more confident and comfortable in the kitchen. I think everyone should take this class! Thank you for a fun afternoon!"
