Cici น่ารักและตั้งใจสอนมาก สอนตั้งแต่ทำแป้ง ใส้ และการห่อ ทำให้การเรียนรู้ในการทำไม่ยาก สามารกลับมาทำที่บ้านได้อย่างง่ายดายและอร่อย ที่ตั้งของที่เรียนหายากไปหน่อย แต่สามารถติดต่อ Cici เพื่อสอบถามและได้รับการตอบกลับอย่างรวดเร็ว ซึ่งที่ตั้งอยู่ตามที่แจ้งมาแต่เข้าไปอยู่ตึกแรกซ้ายมือ ชั้น 3 เป็นห้องกระจกพ่นทราย แต่ไม่มีป้ายชื่อติด แต่ถ้าถึงชั้น 3 แล้วจะพบได้ไม่ยาก ไปเรียนเถอะ ถ้าคุณชอบและสนใจในการทำอาหาร คุ้มแน่นอน
