I've had Gio's cooking on several occasions, and every single time I was impressed. Having him as a private chef is a great experience because not only is the food always delicious, but he is also naturally charismatic, accommodating, and a great person to be around. I would highly definitely recommend his services to anyone I know, and I look forward to experiencing his dishes in the future.

Gio was nothing but a 5-star experience! From picking high quality ingredients at the grocery store to breaking down each step and answering any questions during the cooking class, it was a fun and collaborative experience. I would highly recommend Gio to any friends or family looking to take a looking class to expand their knowledge of dishes. It was first time booking a class with Gio and it definitely won't be my last!
