I have taken one course with Chef Rachel and it was a very positive experience.  Chef is a great teacher and her recipes are sound and easy to execute.  I have emailed her for advice several times and she is very prompt in her reply.  Chef Rachel gets ***** Stars from me!  By the way, Rachel, my granddaughter Ava was at a cooking birthday party at your kitchen (8yr olds.)  and she loved it.  She feels quite confident in the kitchen.   Best, Natalie
