Alex K. says, "⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Unforgettable Cooking Experience with Don! My wife and I will absolutely book again right away!! Don went above and beyond in every way imaginable. He stayed over an hour past the scheduled time without charging us extra, and not once did he rush—he was patient, engaging, and incredibly thorough with his explanations. He came fully prepared with all the ingredients and food for the evening, which made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. Every single dish we made was absolutely delicious. The sauce he helped us create was hands-down the best homemade sauce we’ve ever had, and the quinoa was so uniquely cooked to add so much flavor, unlike any we’ve had before. Don walked us through proper knife skills and cutting techniques for a variety of ingredients, showed us efficient prep methods for each item, and even explained the best practices for pan placement and heat control on the stove. Don also left us with plenty of leftovers, which was such a thoughtful touch. The chicken was the juiciest we’ve ever tasted, and the presentation of each plate looked like something from a restaurant. Even my wife, who typically doesn’t enjoy asparagus, couldn’t stop raving about how good it was! This experience was not just a meal—it was a masterclass in flavor, technique, and hospitality. As crazy as it sounds, the food somehow tasted 100x better than it looked, and it looked amazing. Highly recommend Don for anyone looking to learn, eat well, and have a genuinely fantastic time."See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How much do private cooking lessons cost?

You can take private cooking classes to have fun, to learn a new skill, to improve your health, to bond with your partner, to enjoy a playful first date or to have a unique birthday party experience. Nationally the average cost of private cooking lessons ranges between $100 and $150. Prices can vary, depending on where you live, the type of cooking class you’re taking, the ingredients the chef provides, and the reputation of the chef. Cooking classes with Anthony Bourdain will clearly cost more than classes with a local restaurant owner. The number of people in the class will also affect the cost, with group lessons often priced per person to account for the cost of ingredients. For example, for group lessons, a brunch workshop may cost an average of $70 per person, a steak dinner with sides could cost an average of $80-$85 per person, and a sushi lesson could cost an average of $100 per person. Ingredients play a major role in cost, as the chef will pre-purchase the food you will be working with. Weekday classes will usually cost less than weekend classes.
