This class: 5.0 out of 5 from 3 reviews

  • Pies, Tarts and Crostatas

    The class was excellent! I actually no longer feel intimidated at the thought of making my own pie crust for a sweet or savory pie. Each student left with a blueberry pie, 1 or 2 pieces of a savory tart, and an individual crostatas all made in class.

  • Pies, Tarts and Crostatas

    I'm very thankful for what the chef taught me yesterday. As being an overseas attendee, I couldn't catch up every single word the chef said, but I did pay full of my attention to her. She is such a brilliant chef. Of course a teacher, too. BTW, I went through the recepe and looked up the dictionary right after I got back to the hostel, I even can't remember when the last I STUDIED SO HARD. It could be a century ago. Thanks Chopping Block. Thank you, chef!

  • Pies, Tarts and Crostatas

    I loved this class, great instructor but also the fact that Chopping Block has such a relaxing atmosphere and friendly helpful staff. This is my 4th class there and I plan to continue going.
