"Quite possibly the best evening I've had in 17 years of coming to NOLA.

Energetic, frolicksome and amazingly informative the evening flew by so fast that I have to return just to see what I might have missed.Cannot recommend Langlois enough. It would make a great Christmas gift!"

"It's apparent that Chef Amy is doing what she loves.

She has the perfect personality to keep everyone (from young to old, to the not-so-knowledgeable to the experienced cook) interested from start to finish. "

"We loved the staff & the experience. Such a great cookbook by Chef Amy!!!!!

I bought it and sat at the Hotel Monteleone poolside reading the whole book! Gives me as a northerner such a different view if what Katrina did to our favorite place to visit!"

"This hands-on class taught me more than a year's worth of watching the Food Network.

Great fun, great food, and lots of new friends. Thanks Chef Amy and Chef Mel for the best afternoon of our week in New Orleans. See you next year!"

"Had an amazing time! Great food, Wonderful people and excellent experience!

I've never been to a cooking class but would recommend to anyone. The chefs were so easy to talk to and I felt like I could duplicate the amazing meal we prepared!"
