We had a great experience at Hipcooks. We took the sushi making class. We made several different sushi dishes which included a tofu pocket, smoked salmon stacker, hand rolls, sushi rolls, and nigiri. We used salmon, tuna, and hamachi for the rolls. There was also a super fun culinary challenge between students. We each got one main ingredient, one spice element (heat), and then could use anything else in the kitchen to make our dish complete. The group that won the challenge was awarded an additional beverage. The included beverages for this class were Japanese beer, and hot & cold sake. The dessert was mochi. We would definitely take another class at Hipcooks. Its a great date night.
Joe was a terrific chef who really took his time to make sure that everyone in the Zoom call had a good time, knew what they were doing, and left with a pasta dish they were proud to share with their family. His story about how this pasta is special to him because he made it growing up was sweet too. I would definitely recommend Hipcooks virtual cooking classes!
A huge shout out to Monika/Kristen/Joe- the virtual classes are truly AMAZING! Today, the hand-made pasta was 100 % perfect for dinner and beyond. It was a huge huge hit. 2 sauces- lovely pasta and what an incredible meal and experience!I thank you all so much for helping to keep Hipcooks a part of the positive step forward.Love love love each and every class!Katherine
My son treated me to my second class at Hipcooks. The food was amazing and Kat was energetic and fun. I loved it and I’ll be back! I went to a Tapas class before yummy and now I feel more passionate and creative in the kitchenThe vibe here is so great. .
I was gifted a class. It was so wonderful. I cooked Spanish tapas. I do cook a lot, at home. I learned a few new tricks and the overall vibe was great, fun, and others in the class were super friendly.
I went to a pasta class and it was so fun! I never knew that pasta could be so fun. When I have more time to cook I will use these pasta recipes and do this at home!
Never knew making pasta could be so easy! Went on a date night with the girlfriend. Tina made the class so much fun. 11/10 Would go again.
I have taken several classes at Hipcooks in Portland. It has made me cook with what I have at hand and taste and season as I go. I enjoy having their recipes, which you get a day or so after class to remind you, but knowing full well you can adjust them at your liking.
Learned a lot in a short time. I did feel a weight loss vibe that I didnt like and some classes over lap the same recipes from one to the next. Overall a great experience. Went back 10 times.
This company treats their employees very poorly. They hire them as independent contractors so they dont have to pay taxes or benefits. Instructors get $100 for a class, including time shopping, prep work, class time and clean up. Do the math people! They end up making about $7/hr and then pay small business tax on top of it. Thumbs down for this company.
We did the Greek class. So much fun! Tina was amazing!
Such a great experience. Did the sushi making class and it was amazing
