    We did my 7-yr old's birthday here. It was such a hit with girls and boys. It's a beautiful space with natural light. The cooking area is right in the center so the parents could sit back and watch while the kids enjoyed the cooking activities. Chef Paulo was great with the kids, keep them entertained and in line. Highly recommend!
