This was the best way to take New Orleans with me and put it in the kitchen. The cooking class was hosted by a charismatic and humorous man. He gave us great history of the origin and making of the food. He was humble and yet made amazing food, which I look forward to duplicating in the kitchen. You even... More

My husband and I took the cooking class in April 2012. The instructor was thorough and entertaining, the classroom was comfortable, and the food was delicious! Can't wait to use what we learned to entertain our friends with an authentic New Orleans night! More

Again, I checked out a couple places offering cooking classes and I was very happy with our choice. Scott was great and his cooking style and conversation was perfect. We spent 2 hours it a beautiful classroom overlooking the river on the pier. It is located in the Riverwalk Shopping Center across from Harrah's and next door to the Aquarium... More

Nita, the owner and puppetmaster of CCC, does a great job of catering to the hords that flock in from conventions and cruise ships. What is most surprising is that she also does a great job of catering to locals and other regular folks who actually come here to experience the food that makes New Orleans so special. More

We had 16 in a class. Presentation was quite informative about local history as relates to the food, and entertaining in general. Food was tasty, and the recipe for our class could be prepared at home with substitutions (anyone have some crawfish available?). Do allow a few extra minutes to find the Crescent City Cookware Shop inside the Riverwalk Marketplace.... More

We really enjoyed this cooking class. The chef was very informative and fun. The food was the best I ate while in New Orleans and the chef told about the culture & history of food & New Orleans. The class overlooks the Mississippi River & our morning class only had 9 people so we got to really interact with chef.... More

We took the 10:00 - 12:30 course and really enjoyed it. Chef was very informative about both the technical aspects of the dishes as well as the culinary history behind them. Smaller class (~11 people) was good. Location is great, windows of classroom look right onto the river. You get to eat generous portions of everything demo'd - don't plan... More

My mother and I signed up for the cooking demonstration and were very impressed. The cost was $30 but we had a coupon so it was only $25. The cook was wonderful.. He explained each step and intertwined it with local stories and the history of the ingredients in the food. I came away with a great understanding of creole... More

My family and I arrived a few days early in New Orleans on our way to catch a cruise ship that was leaving from there. We've all been to NOLA before and we were looking for a new experience. My son in law found a place on the internet (www.crescentcitycooks.com) that gives a 3 hour cooking class, so he signed... More
