David war super freundlich und hat die Cooking Class entspannt und humorvoll gestaltet, sodass eine schöne Atmosphäre entstanden ist. Alles wurde freundlich und in gutem Tempo erklärt. Wir haben die Gerichte problemlos zubereiten können und es hat unglaublich gut geschmeckt! Wir hatten viel Spaß und würden auf jeden Fall nochmal teilnehmen!
