Testimonials

Dalia Brem

“I have taken several of Mimi’s classes and I can tell you, it only gets better. We have fun while learning. Highly recommend for couples, friend groups, bridal parties or just someone who wants to learn to cook a new dish.”

Amanda Fitch

“Every class is a dive into fun and learning. No experience required- just a plan to have fun and enjoy some delicious food!

These sessions are good for all ages- my six year old enjoyed making pad Thai and loved eating his creation. If you are hesitant, don’t be. It’s so much fun and easy. I meet new people each session and feel so welcomed at each class.”

Mandy Flores

“First time taking any cooking class. Mimi set the bar pretty high. Knowledge with a touch of humor and a lot of experience; it’s obvious she’s doing what she loves. I had a wonderful time and the Pad Thai was delicious if I do say so myself.”

Barbara Maughan

“I have been loving these classes! It’s been a great learning experience in a fun and interactive environment. Noemi (Mimi) is very talented and really cares about each participant. The sessions are kept small to allow for some one-on-one instruction. Every dish we have created thus far has been spot on and absolutely delicious. I highly recommend Mimi Kitchenboss!!!”

Michael Schneider

“100% recommend Mimi Kitchenboss. She's a tremendously talented cook and presenter. Her classes are very easy to follow-along. She has a great personality and is super kind and informative. The classes have all been such a blast so far!”
