Overall, I enjoyed the class and experience. There are somethings I would note, such as arrival and set up time. Because I didn't want to be a "straggler" or a disrupter (my arrival interrupting a class already in progress), I planned to leave my home to account for traffic, finding parking as well as the location of the venue, since the instructions say to arrive 15 minutes before class starts to check-in. I was waiting well after 4:45PM check-in time and wasn't 100% sure if we were in the right place. I would've liked to have seen better planning and prep (taking consideration for commute/traffic and set up), so that when patrons arrive when instructed, they know they are at the right place. Instead, there was waiting and watching of prep and set up. It was also hard hearing everything that was being said. Another thing I would note is to let people know if they shouldn't eat all of the portions being provided for each item being made. I brought my appetite with me as well as my husband, for the class and toward the end, when it was time to make the Hand Roll, we were told to use what we had left over... there was nothing left over we were hungry! We and some other people had to go up and get more cucumbers and carrots - which brings me to another point - that we should not be going to get extra food ourselves. My husband actually saw a person go in with their gloved hands and grab rice directly out of the pot. Food should be controlled by the Chef and he should provide enough portions ahead of time and/or let the class know to save some of what they have for the next item being made. Another thing that comes to mind are the tables. Since we are sitting in a common area used by people looking for a place to sit down and eat their food (or just hang out) when there isn't a class, perhaps cleaning the tables before setting them with the items needed or using disposable tablecloths would be something to consider. Several times, the avocado slipped out of my oily gloved hands and onto the table. I am not writing this to be mean, just providing my observations and what I would like to see if I were to go to another class for an even better experience. Chef Thomas is very nice and friendly. He seems to enjoy what he does, which makes the class enjoyable.
