Fantastic Experience - I attended this class recently in the evening with Brett as the host. I am traveling solo and in this class was myself and just one other couple. With a small group it was ensured that we all got to fully participate and we also had a nice chat. It was a 3 hour experience and an absolutely lovely way to spend an evening, snacking and drinking throughout and ending with a great dinner and dessert. I really got to feel like I did something fun and immersed in the culture. Brett was fantastic, guiding us through various dishes cooking or if prepared already telling us all about how it’s made and where it comes from. It was fun to learn some Czech history through food and drink. Completely worth it for me, one of the highlights of this trip. If you’re hesitant, don’t be! Book it! :)

A thoroughly enjoyable experience! - A thoroughly enjoyable experience! Chef Brett offered wonderful stories and information on the history of Prague, the food and the wines he served. We, together with another couple, cooked 3 delicious recipes and Chef Brett cook the absolutely scrumptious Hungarian goulash. The whole atmosphere was cozy as if we were at a friend's house for a dinner party!
