The essence of this place is that it is a cooking school. They have a superb selection of wines, cheeses and meats, and a very interesting menu that always includes a fresh soup of some type. That said, the cooking school has a restaurant that offers some very, very good food. Therefore, I would rate this not as a cooking... More

On Saturdays they have a great wine tasting. Might be finnished for winter but consider it for summer. They also have a great selection of wines for sale as well as cheese.

We love having our meeting at the Laguna Culinary Arts Cafe. The choices for the cheese platters are plentiful and their wine shop has great deals. Buy yourself a selection from their limited menu and sit and enjoy.

Go on Saturday and enjoy the wine tasting - price is right, at least until you buy a bunch of wine! Very nice.

I have not taken classes here, only visited and been treated to a wonderful meal. The wines and cheeses are also worth a trip. Great find for a unique dining experience

The chef instructor was excellent and knowledgable about the techniques and cooking methods. I learned a few things and reviewed a lot. Thank you for... More

We stopped in on a Saturday and enjoyed the wine and cheese tasting. This is a really cute shop with a great selection. I highly suggest it for spending an hour or two on a Saturday afternoon. Fun!

We walked out and I notice two other customers also left right behind us. I was thinking it was a trainee or intern. Today went in to get some cheese, same person... More
