I had a wonderful experience at Chef Alekka’s knife skills class! She provides a welcoming and comfortable environment and I walked away with a ton of new information while also having a blast. I will definitely be returning for a future class!
Wonderful knife skills class tonight! Chef Alekka was sweet and funny and so knowledgeable! Learned so much and made a wonderful stir fry! We will be back for another class!!!
You should absolutely take a class from Chef Alekka! My partner surprised me with a visit from her to our home, where she taught me and a few friends how to cook a full dinner using food we rarely cook ourselves. The menu my partner surprised me with was Nashville hot chicken sandwiches, cornbread, bread pudding, fried green tomatoes, and my favorite, she crab bisque! Not only did the food turn out amazing, but she was so fun to spend an evening with. And she was really good and assigning tasks and giving us various tips and skills along the way that we could use going forward, like various knife skills, working with oil, things like that. She even helped clean up! Honestly this was a really cool birthday gift my partner got me, so I wanted to leave this review to encourage others to book her, as it was a really fun, unique, and special evening that happened in our own home.
We cannot recommend Chef Alekka enough. Such a fun way to celebrate any event and learn a new skill. Alekka is easy going and great for all skill level. We were so pleasantly surprised at the GREAT VALUE; not only did we make and keep boxes of puff pastry, we each made our own puff pastry dough to freeze and take home to try on our own. Will definitely be booking again for other occasions!
Spending time with Chef Alekka was a joyful and educational experience!!! Our entire party had a fabulous and delicious evening. We made perfect puff pastries with Chef Alekka’s guidance. Her down to earth and chill vibe encouraged us to have a lot of fun across all of our levels of past cooking experience. What an incredible value for money as well!!!! Give it a shot - you will love it!!
Amazing experience!!!
I just can't complement Chef Alekka enough! We had an amazing experience celebrating my bachelorette. Not only was the food exceptional with some of the best, intentional, flavor pairings, but she is a wonderfully kind, fun person who is passionate about cooking and the unifying power of a shared meal with the people you love the most. She quite literally caters to you though her tailored menu options and your level of participation. She is a fantastic teacher who is more than willing to guide you in a shared cooking experience, or you can sit back, relax, and eliminate the stress of everything that comes with hosting and enjoy an incredible meal. We loved her and will find any excuse to invite her to our next gathering!!
Chef Alekka gave my family and me a truly wonderful experience making pasta from scratch together. She was a very helpful and engaging teacher who made the whole experience very enjoyable. Also, the pasta was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be reaching out to her again for future cooking lessons.
Chef Alekka was so entertaining and fun! We also learned a lot from her. It was the perfect event to celebrate my birthday with friends and family.
Chef Alekka helped me celebrate my wife’s 40th birthday by cooking an amazing meal for friends and family at our home. Every step of the process leading up to the dinner was so painless, from the menu selection (she customized everything to include my wife’s favorite foods as well as a gluten allergy), the setup, serving and clean up. She did it all. Even offered help pronouncing some of the wines that were chosen for the meal. Her interactions with everyone in the house, both adults and children, made it a night to remember and we had a lot of laughs! Highly recommend.

Five stars! We had a great experience with Alekka and appreciated her knife skills class. We walked away with a great afternoon experience, practical skills, and a delicious meal we had prepared together. Her class made for a great family gift!
Chef Alekka is the best! From Bibimbap to cake decorating Chef Alekka teaches us skill, great knife technique, and other useful tips when it comes to concocting a delicious meal! Knowing Chef Alekka for almost seven years now I know that she is a great teacher, and a friendly person that will always make you laugh! Lastly she taught me to be a better person and chef! Thanks Chef Alekka!!!!
My family and I had such a great experience with chef Alekka! We made fettuccine from scratch for Father’s Day, and we even made extra to save for another day. She came to our home, brought all the ingredients, and more recipes. She was extremely personable and helpful. So fun!!!
Our cooking class was amazing!!
We enjoyed having Chef Alekka in our home to teach us how to prepare Sea Bass en Papillote, French Vinaigrette, Fondant Potatoes and Crème Brûlée. Learning various knife skills was invaluable and all of the food was delicious.
Chef Alekka made every step fun and interesting.
