Spring Camp for Our Daughter Sofia

"Our experience with the Spring Camp for our daughter Sofia was truly exceptional. Sofia thoroughly enjoyed every moment spent at the camp. She immersed herself in learning about quality foods and exploring the art of making delicious recipes :) One of the highlights of the camp was the dedicated and talented teachers who guided Sofia throughout her journey. Their expertise, kindness, and passion for teaching left a lasting impression on Sofia. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our experience at the Spring Camp. It provided Sofia with not only valuable knowledge but also unforgettable memories. We are eagerly looking forward to the next camp and the opportunity for Sofia to continue her culinary adventures. Thank you to the organizers and staff for creating such a fantastic and enriching experience for our daughter."

Great camp

“My son is 8 years old and he is not a big eater, very conservative, simple dishes, no interest in cooking. This camp was recommended to us by a friend. We had an idea, that working with food, cooking , kitchen kind of experience will help him feel more easy in trying new dishes and new food. My son loved camp, every morning he was rushing to academy, he told us , that he had lots of joy, he liked atmosphere and people. I was very happy to see him being so proud of himself, when he treated us with the food, he’d cooked. Registration process and communication with staff was very easy and smooth. Now I am thinking of taking classes myself.”

Amazing & Fun camp for kids!!

“Such a fun camp for kids! My daughter learned so many new skills and was very proud to come home and share what she learned (and made) in the kitchen. She even learned how to set the table for meals. It’s been a huge success. She is actually sad for summer camp to end and can’t wait to go back next year!”

Best Summer Camp

"My 13 yo son loved the camp!!! Coming from a kid who has done many specialty camps and always complains about them this says a lot. He woke up excited every day and looked forward to the day’s events. He has always had an interest in culinary skills, but he also really enjoyed the nutrition aspect of the program. He made friends at the camp and said the counselors were very nice. For me it is a win win! He learns to prepare healthy foods for us and is aware of nutrition and food labels. Maria and Arthur congratulations on your excellent program. We are reviewing our schedule to get him in more weeks! Thank you!"

    Arthur Cummins is one of my favorite people in franchising. He and Maria have really built an amazing franchise model. I'm excited to see the nationwide growth over the next few years!
  • Schualita Chong

    We had our daughter's 5th birthday party here and it was such a success. Huge hit with both the kids and parents. The venue was great and they took care of everything! The party went so smoothly - everything is organized, well thought out and the owners and chef were so accomodating with all of our needs/requests. Highly recommend.
  • HILSA MUSALI

    We celebrated my son’s 9th birthday at The Real Food Academy, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish! The kids had so much fun cooking their own pasta and decorating cupcakes. It was such a creative and interactive activity, and they felt like real little chefs in the kitchen. We also hired the magician they recommended, and he was a huge success! The kids were completely entertained and laughing the whole time. We actually live in Coconut Creek, so many of our guests drove almost an hour to attend the party, and everyone agreed it was absolutely worth the drive. The kids had a fantastic time, and the parents were very impressed with the experience. The staff was organized, friendly, and made everything run smoothly. It was truly a unique and memorable birthday celebration. I would highly recommend The Real Food Academy to anyone looking for a fun and different party idea for kids!

I felt ease and comfort knowing I didn’t have to do much and they handled everything from the moment we arrived. The kids, and even the parents, had a blast! Everyone loved this idea and how interactive it was for the kids. I’m so happy we chose Real Food Academy! 10/10

    Amazing sushi class — truly exceeded expectations. I learned so much, from knife skills to proper rice preparation and rolling techniques. Super hands-on, fun, and incredibly well organized. Huge thanks to Chef Toni, who was absolutely amazing — patient, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience both educational and entertaining. Highly recommend to anyone who loves sushi and wants to really understand the craft behind it. 🍣👏
