We truly loved Chef Tess. We ordered her catering services (full-service/chef-attended) where she prepared a delicious Oxtail ragut alongside a bruschetta appetizer, a refreshing salad and a very tasty dessert. With every dish, she would give us a short introduction which made the experience even more special - like a chef's table. I give her 5 stars for service, food, and presentation.

We had a great time at this class. Chef Tess was very knowledgeable and passionate about cooking. We are pretty beginner-level, but she gave a mix of tips for beginners and for more advanced chefs. She was also a lot of fun to work with - telling funny stories and jokes and helping the whole group stay engaged. All of the food was delicious, and she provided all of the recipes so that we can make everything at home. We would take a class with her again. :)
