About The Business

Sur La Table is a well-known retailer specializing in kitchenware, cookware, and culinary tools. Many of its store locations, including the one in Troy, Michigan, provide dedicated kitchen spaces for cooking classes. These classes aim to give participants hands-on experience in preparing various dishes, led by skilled instructors.

The class offerings cover a diverse array of cuisines, cooking methods, and skill levels. They are designed for different groups, including individuals, couples, and families, and can be arranged for private events like corporate functions or celebrations. The Troy store offers these interactive cooking experiences alongside its retail operations, allowing customers to expand their cooking abilities and discover new culinary interests in a dedicated setting.

Classes range from short workshops focused on specific recipes or techniques to longer series covering broader culinary topics. They are available for adults as well as younger cooks through kids and teens programs. The emphasis is on active participation, where attendees prepare the food they will later enjoy. The classes take place in kitchens equipped with items similar to those sold in the store, linking the retail and educational aspects of the business and allowing participants to use quality kitchen equipment while learning practical skills.

Avoid Gather & Forge – My Experience with Their Private Chef Services

September 12, 2025

I don’t usually write negative reviews, but I wanted to share my experience in case it helps someone else avoid the same mistake.

I hired Gather & Forge well in advance to provide a great private dining experience for guests I had flown in from across the country—two nights in a row. Both nights were a letdown.

The chef showed up 45 minutes to an hour late each night.

The food wasn’t hot. It came out lukewarm or even cool.

The quality of the meal didn’t justify the price. Honestly, I’d say the value was maybe 60% of what we paid.

I gave them plenty of chances to make it right, but they had no interest in doing so. As much as I think Brandon (the chef) worked hard, the overall service just didn’t live up to the cost or the expectations.

Bottom line: Gather & Forge is overpriced, underdelivers, and doesn’t seem to care about customer satisfaction. I really wanted this to be a great experience, but I would never use them again and highly discourage anyone from booking them for private chef services.

Fabulous venue for events & Italian cooking classes!

Our BYOB wine group had an amazing experience Saturday night at A Taste of Milan in the Southside with Chef Sidney and Katie! We learned how to make home made pasta and enjoyed her family recipes handed down from generations! Truly beyond 5 stars and it was a magical evening! Thank you Sidney and Katie
