  I got this class as a birthday gift for my cheese loving best friend. We couldn’t have been happier with the experience! Chef Joe is a lovely person and a wonderful teacher. He is knowledgeable and extremely personable, just as happy to explain technical details as to chat about life. We made 2 different batches that were equally delicious, and Chef Joe really broke down the process and made it totally doable for us to try at home. We had a blast and are looking forward to trying some of his other classes soon! Will definitely be recommending to our friends and to anyone else interested in cooking.

  A truly wonderful class. I took my girlfriend here for a surprise date night. We learned loads from Joe. It was so much fun would highly recommend. Would recommend arriving as close to the start time as possible as the event venue doesn't open until the class starts.

  I took this class with my son and my mom. It was great! Joe was so informative and we learned so much. Plus the cheese was great! We even received a recipe book for 19 cheeses to make at home! Highly recommend! (dress warmly if it's a cold day)

  It could have been called “Cheese Making and Assorted Stories.” The evening was filled with hands on experience, detailed information about cheese, and wonderful stories. It was a great mixture of information, community, laughter, and fun. Highly recommended.

  The cheese making class was great! The information was spot on and easy but the real gem here is the Joe the instructor. He knows what hes talking about and even better, full of fascinating tangents and fun stories. He engaging and an entertainer and truly cares about sharing an experience with his guests. Highly recommend taking this class! Its perfect for a quick date night or night out with friends. We for sure will be back for more of his classes in the future.

  This year for Valentine's day, I was looking for an activity for my partner and I to do, and since I'm a sucker for anything cheesey (puns always intended) I was happy to find this course. Now, the issue was that I accidentally bought tickets for the wrong dates the first time around and instead gifted them to another couple we know and then bought the correct dates. Sharing the tickets was easy, and the other couple enjoyed the class.

  The day of, we had a little trouble finding the space since it is a smaller venue. For other first timers, look for the small brick building just next to First Slice Cafe on Balmoral and Ashland; there should usually be a grey van out front. Once we came in, we were greeted by the instructor, Joeseph, who warmly welcomed us into the venue. Quickly, we realized we were the only two for the class that night and had an impromptu private class. From there, Joe was nice enough to tell us about the space, and the class and we dove right into the process of making cheese.

  The content of the course itself was very accessible but also allowed for some scalability in case we wanted to get serious about making cheese later down the line. During this, there was plenty of time for questions, and we all got to talk and share some fun stories. In the end, we were able to make two variations of delicious cheese from just a half gallon of milk and some other basic ingredients that we could do all at home. To top it all off, we got to try our newly made cheeses with a lovely platter that included some tasty balsamic, fresh bread crackers, and a phenomenal boozy jam/compote that was from another class they offer (and we'll probably take in the future). Indirectly I guess I already reccomended this to my friends but I'm glad to refer this to others as well!

  PS Brief note about the space; it is a cozy space that was previously a bookstore and flower shop in a small brick venue that is roughly 7' by 18' total. Accordingly there is no restroom in the space itself, but you can easily go next door to the friendly folks at First Slice cafe next door, or pop into one of the bars on Clark that are open later.

  Great, intimate class. The location is cozy thus the name of them - mL. The classes hold about 6 people so you will absolutely get to interact, ask questions and do some hands on learning! It is byob and although they don't sell any wine, there is a shop about a block away. They have classes, bottle openers and a fridge on hand so just need to bring the vino. Tom was enthusiastic and passionate and made for a great host. Even though there is street parking you may want to use spothero (we found a spot not too far for only $5 for 3 hours) or there's a lot next door but you'll have to try the Italian restaurant beforehand so they validate your parking. Overall great class and learned a lot!

The cheese making process was really interesting and surprisingly easy, and the best part was getting to devour our homemade cheese! Joe was able to easily answer all of our questions so we can make more at home, and he was friendly and fun and sweet. Definitely planning to take more classes at mL! And to make this cheese at home.

  Since I love cheese, I knew I'd love the class! It was an enjoyable experience and Joe was very helpful and provided tips if we decided to make cheese at home. However, if we wanted to drink wine we had to purchase a bottle in the store. The class for the price (in addition to the cost of wine) seemed a little steep, as we also did not get any cheese to take home.

  The teacher was well versed in the art of cheese making and this was a fun, "something different to do" class! I'd note that there are no snacks or wine provided, which is something that I think would really elevate the experience. Since the class is held in a wine store, you can easily purchase a bottle of your choosing, but the $50 ticket price seemed a little steep for the two hours.
  Separately, I noticed that the store runs a bunch of promotions e.g., 10% off champagne on Sundays (bring your own OJ :) that sound like something I'd go back for!
