This was truly an amazing experience. My partner and I were lucky enough to have Jordan all to ourselves for our cooking class. We used all fresh ingredients and he showed us how easy it was to make a healthy flavorful meal. His welcoming attitude made us feel like we were right at home making our fresh pasta. The class experience was educational but most of all so much fun. We really enjoyed our time and look forward to learning other cuisines from Jordan

Chef Jordan and his partner Mary we’re so welcoming into their home for our last minute booking on Christmas Eve!! Chef Jordan was amazing and explained everything very well. We felt so comfortable and the food was absolutely amazing! His home is about an hour away from the San Diego but the drive is beautiful! Thank you so much!!

We had such a lovely time at Chef Jordan’s cooking class! Chef Jordan is knowledgeable, warm, and inviting. The food was fresh and professionally made and my boyfriend and I enjoyed getting to learn new cooking skills. In particular, we loved Chef Jordan’s new twist on a Caprese salad!

Chef Jordan made Mother’s Day perfect for me and my two kids. His house is in a beautiful location and the food was absolutely delicious. He had everything prepared for us to get to work. My kids loved the hands-on work and the Chef was happy to explore any and all of their questions - many well outside of the menu - with expertise and a kind manner. Thank you for the wonderful experience!

Jordan was extremely knowledgeable in his craft. The balsamic reduction was AMAZING and since he gave us the recipes to go home with, I'm excited to make my own! I'm now a fan of all things lemon, lol! Who knew it had so many uses - thank your for enlightening me. You will have plenty of food to go home with as well - a great time was had by all! Thank you so much!

My fiance and I had an incredible time with Chef Jordan. He is friendly, patient, and a joy to learn from, and the food was DELICIOUS! Plus we made enough to last us for 3 more meals - you will leave with plenty of leftovers and a great set of new skills!

My husband and I received the pasta making class with Jason as a gift for our wedding anniversary. It was such an amazing experience! We not only learned how to make pasta, but he taught us many other useful “kitchen tricks.” Jason was very accommodating of food restrictions and dietary needs. It was a perfect weekend away from San Diego in scenic Julian. A must do! Fun date night! Thanks Jason! We highly recommend him. Book it!

Chef Jordan was awesome! We had an Airbnb that had pretty minimal utensils/ space but he made the best of it! He was super nice and friendly, and allowed us to cook along side him. My boyfriend couldn't stop eating the panna cotta :) Thanks again Chef Jordan!!

My husband and I went to Chef Jordan's house last night and we had such a great time! His place is right near Lake Cuyamaca and it was beautiful. We live in San Diego but made a day trip to Julian for this. Chef Jordan was very thorough in explaining how to make each dish, and everything we made was absolutely delicious!! We will definitely be booking him again. Thank you!

My 17 year old daughter and I had a great time. Chef Jordan was interesting, organized and paced the experience well. The recipes and food was excellent, I would cook these recipes again at home! Very hands on learning.

Our experience with Chef Jordan was enjoyable, comfortable, and all around excellent. He is passionate about the craft and is clearly gifted in teaching the craft as well. Aside from learning how to make pasta from scratch, my wife and I learned many simple tips and tricks that are definitely going to raise the bar of our daily cooking experience. I couldn’t recommend Jordan enough! I would take this course all over again.

Despite the glowing reviews, our night with Chef Jordan was a little disappointing. We weren’t offered any crudités with hummus as shown in the menu, and we’d have been a lot happier if we’d been able to help more with the cooking. He showed us how to chop the vegetables and then left us to do it rather than correct our errors, and we helped with the pasta machine, but we weren’t involved at all in the desert, which wasn’t even the same desert that was advertised. We weren’t even offered aprons, which seems basic, though from the little cooking we did, they weren’t really necessary. Chef Jordan was pleasant but lacked enthusiasm. My sister remarked that it felt like we’d been invited to someone’s house for an okay dinner, but that it was obvious that the host didn’t really want us to be there. That is exactly how it felt! It’s a shame, and the food we did have was nice. It was just far, far too much money for a subpar experience.

I am not one to write reviews, especially bad ones, but I thought that it needed objective feedback. We thought of it as an opportunity to get away from the city and tried to justify the price for the experience. Don't get me wrong - definitely a nice guy and good food. But was it worth $300 for the two of us? No. He showed us how to chop and explained what he was doing as he was cooking, but nothing about the experience was "farm-to-table." We thought it was probably the season - we went when it was coldish. But if that was the case, the posting should have made that very clear. I would say I had reasonable expectations given the price and others' reviews, but I came out of the experience disappointed. It also said it would last about 3 hours, but we were done in 1.5 hours. We are thinking maybe we are just a one-off...? Anyway, if anybody asked me, I would say spend your money elsewhere. It wasn't worth it for us - the time and the price.
