Fun time and great lunch - Great Time with Emily !!! Have caught lots of fish and it is always a good idea to know how to cook it. Here you get to cook it and have a great lunch afterwards.
Great Views of the Tongass Narrows in Ketchikan and very close to many of the cruise ships.

Delicious in every way! - Ketchikan local here. I did the class with visiting family and another local friend. We ALL loved it and can’t stop talking about it. From the moment you walk in the door everything has been thought of and ready for you. I learned so much about ways to prepare and enjoy salmon, a staple in our home. I left with a new sense of excitement for the kitchen and full from the amazing final product, the meal! Emily and Danielle are excellent hosts. The vibe is relaxed, yet polished. You won’t regret booking and I encourage you to do so! Delicious in every way!
