I enjoyed this mosaic class! Located in a convenient spot in Brooklyn, we were given just the right amount of guidance whilst also having lots of unguided time where we could explore our creativity and have a chat. The little mosaic pieces were fun to work with and I’m pleased with my creation, I gave it as a gift for my mum and she loves it (I’m not a good plant parent myself). Would rec  + more

Cyril Scovens Ii




Elena was an amazing instructor very kind and patient. I purchased this class as an anniversary gift to my girlfriend and I. Everything was provided from the smock to the painting utensils. You learn how to sketch from a reference photo, how to mix paint to make colors lighter or darker, and of course how to paint using oil based paint. Elena was a hands on instructor not shying away from helping you  + more

We went for a friend's bday present experience. The instructor was great! He demonstrated what we had to do and made sure we were on track. We had a fun time, and the macarons came out well! Thanks for a great experience!

Mary Anne McTiernan




This was the best present ever. We created three delicious pasta dishes, salad, and dessert following the instructions of two incredibly warm and talented chefs. Great atmosphere! Beautiful people! I highly recommend.

This was a gift for my son and his girlfriend. They had such a great time, and you even got my son to try things he never ate Thank you! Thank you! Regards, Marie


Michael Shea




Great value. You get drinks, an awesome teaching session, and the tools to make drinks at home. Host makes sure all people are having a fun time and the bar has a great vibe. Overall an amazing gift or experience!

Bona Jeong




Melanie was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions in details and thoughtful manner. I always wanted to learn about candle making for hobby, and this amazing birthday gift from my sister gave me this chance! This specific venue got a little noisy in the end as the customers started to come in for lunch. Other than that, I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who has interest just  + more

I brought my husband here for his birthday to make a survival knife. I did the buddy up option since he would be the one mostly working on it and it was great. Honestly, the best time ever. He enjoyed the entire process and we may even go back to create more items! Our instructor was pretty cool and really sweet, made sure we were getting our desired shape of the knife. Our end result looked amazing! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for unique gift ideas or date nights!


Paul Oh




A wonderful and educational class! EunYoung is very knowledgeable and patient as a teacher, she was so helpful teaching us all about matcha and how to make a proper cup. She went through the history, origins, types, and instruction on how to prepare matcha. I bought this course as a gift for my wife’s birthday and she enjoyed it a lot. I would recommend anyone who enjoys matcha to try this class. The shop she teaches in is cute too.


Evan Jaffee




My partner Beth, who spent several years living in France after college (and still speaks French fluently) had long wanted to learn how to how make croissants so I purchased this class for her birthday. In all the years we have been together I think the class may have been her favorite birthday present thus far which says something. Our instructor Emily was incredibly patient, friendly and wasn't pretentious like so many other professional bakers in New York are. You could also tell she was passionate about her craft which is always great to see. I  + more

My all time favorite store to shop and browse around when in Bushwick!!!! The atmosphere is always so cozy and they’re always playing the tunes! My partner and I recently did their candle making class and it was probably one of the best experiences we’ve done this year. The candle making studio is so nice and intimate, it’s perfect for a date night! Cristian and Britt were very helpful and  + more

Great class. Christmas gift to share experience. Loved the atmosphere. Great pesto recipe!! Chef and assistant were awesome.


Amanda Cepeda




Took my mom for s mother's day gift and it was very cute and great small class allowed for extra attention. The instructor was very sweet and well informed!


Edwin Froehlich




I got this for a gift for my girlfriend for valentines day. I printed out ClassBento and let her pick the class of her choosing. She landed on Red Inside Pasta Class and she could not have chose a better class. 100/100. I cannot wait to take another one of their classes! The two chefs were incredible and full of knowledge. Awesome experience, highly recommended.


Christopher Hutton




This was a xmas gift for my partner and we both enjoyed it. Teacher was great spending enough time with everyone to make sure we did not struggle. Venue had enough wheels, space and materials and we did learn the basics as set out. Yes I would recommend this class to any beginners.


Orri Cohen




Very fun and easy to learn. Great birthday gift for my wife and I to do together.


Pamela




This class was a gift from my daughter. Our teacher was engaging, informative, knowledgeable and entertaining (funny)! The professional kitchen was clean, spacious, and well-equipped. We (a class of 16) had plenty of room to observe, participate in demonstrations, and do the work of the class - making dumplings! We learned how to roll a spring roll with rice wrappers, how to make dumpling dough, and four ways to roll and shape dumplings. Our teacher's demonstrations were detail-oriented but not overly complicated. Our creations were steamed and  + more


Carson Elrod




This is a GREAT time. I was given this class as a Christmas present and it's one of the best gifts I've ever gotten. The class size is small. My teacher was Gerard, and he was warm, nurturing, enthusiastic, encouraging, skilled, and patient. This is a no-nonsense class where you really learn by doing. There's a quick hello and then you're geared up and pounding on molten pieces of rebar like you're a Viking blacksmith forging a sword. After hammering, shaping, quenching, grinding, and weaving, four hours later you leave the workshop with a knife  + more


Sabrina




Got this as a Christmas present and I loved it! We got a feel for the clay and were able to just have fun and make little pots and bowls. Definitely want to go back for another class


Clara Smith




The class was great! Instructors were super friendly and helpful! It was a gift for my mom, would recommend.
