    I was a little nervous being a single person going to this event.. everyone present was so welcoming, and being able to interact with all the other small groups at the event, made it extra special .. I was blown away with the flowers offered, to us to make our flower arrangements ..
    The class in their gorgeous vintage classic Chicago Brick bungalow was a delight to explore.

    This was an absolutely awesome event and the hosts were amazing. I'm a little obsessed with gifting experiences rather than items so we took our mom to Drumlin Supper Club for a floral arranging event and brunch! The hosts were fantastic and everything was perfect. Food was amazing and we loved the class. Our mom loved it! We will definitely be watching for more events with Michael and Sarah in the future.

    Our hosts were very welcoming and prepared. The whole experience was smooth and well organized. Our favorite things were: our instructor was knowledgeable and encouraging, and made everything easy and the ramen add-ins (especially the pork and soft boiled eggs) were impressive. In spite of the amount of participants, we got one-on-one help as needed. We highly recommend this class!

    I attended the Drumlin House’s Flower Arranging Brunch with a friend and we had such a good time! Sarah and Michael are very welcoming, yet casual, hosts – we felt right at home with them and the other guests. It was easy to find the location and there was ample street parking for guests. The brunch bites from Michael were really tasty (I’ll be back for more avocado toast). And the flowers we took home are gorgeous. Sarah shared some great tips to try out, so I’m excited to keep building my flower arranging skills at home.

    We were welcomed into a gorgeous Chicago bungalow on a pretty tree-lined street. Felt more like an invitation not an event. We enjoyed Prosecco Rose and appetizers while waiting for others to arrive and it gave us a chance to roam around and marvel at the home. The activity involved creating a bowl of ramen. We all made our own noodles from scratch and cooked them. Great broth and varied toppings allowed us to customize our ramen bowls. Good conversation as we ate our ramen and enjoyed one another's company. Michael and Sara are tremendous hosts. Well worth the time.

Not only was this class educational and delicious, but we really enjoyed sitting down to eat with both of them and the other two class attendees. We felt like we were at a friends home, having an intimate and friendly dinner, instead of at an event. These two make you feel so welcome and we will most certainly be back!!

    I reserved a ramen cooking class with my mom & my nephew (M. 13). This class happened to be exactly what I was looking for (my nephew really loves ramen!). Michael & Sarah were excellent at communicating in advance of the class and were welcoming from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. My family learned about the meal, ingredients, and even working in a top restaurant from Michael's interesting stories. We were sent home with homemade hot sauce, a spice rub & all kinds of leftovers from our cooking adventure. So generous! As soon as we sat down in the car to go home afterward, my mom said "You're writing them a 5+ star review as soon as we get home." The value was incredible, the experience was fun, hands-on, engaging, and overall SO pleasant. I've already planted the idea to some friends' minds to return & enjoy pasta making and BYOB. Take a class with this pair!

PS- This class is in an apartment building which was confusing when we first arrived; however, their apartment is adorable and can accommodate a large group well.

    The ramen class was pretty great! The broth was good and I loved the add-ins! This class was mainly a ramen noodle making class instead of hands-on with the broth and toppings (mainly because those take like 30 hours), but I still really enjoyed it for that it was. I will definitely be making these noodles myself in the near future.
