My husband and I have now collectively taken four classes with Chef Mellissa at Salt Kitchen, and every single one has been an absolute delight.
From the moment you walk through the doors, you’re welcomed into a warm, clean, and inviting space that instantly puts you at ease; whether you're a seasoned cook or stepping into a kitchen class for the first time.
Chef Mellissa’s passion for cooking and teaching shines in every class. Her energy is infectious, her instructions are clear, and her recipes? Surprisingly simple! The classes make you feel like you could serve a Michelin star meal. Cooking can feel intimidating, but Mellissa has a way of making it feel approachable, empowering, and joyful.
Shannon, who assists during the classes and helps run the shop, is just as fantastic. Both Mellissa and Shannon go above and beyond to answer questions and offer guidance, even when some of our questions were a little ridiculous! They never made us feel anything less than welcome and supported.
Beyond the classes themselves, Salt Kitchen is truly a gift to our little North Dakota community. It’s not just about food; it’s about connection, learning, and shared experience. We’ve not only gained confidence in the kitchen but also felt a genuine sense of community every time we’ve come.
We’re incredibly thankful for what Salt Kitchen is bringing to our area, and we can’t wait for more classes in the future. Highly, highly recommended!
