This was a fun (and delicious) class and we all learned a lot.

Chef Daniel was great! Learned some awesome tips on cutting and cooking this style of cuisine. The atmosphere was wonderful, and very conduscive of a "homey" cooking in the kitchen with my grandmother vibe. We had a blast in a group of six, partaking in the prep and cooking. All of us tackled many steps along the way, and Daniel was vocal the entire time. Daniel was very nice and struck great conversation both during and after cooking. My partner and I both love cooking, so this was a great insight and experience. Food was phenomenal, and the house smelled incredible. When asked about our favorite meals to cook, my partner and I just froze for whatever reason, but was still a very comfortable and welcoming environment (lol). I would do this again in a heartbeat, and would easily choose Chef Daniel again!

We had the best time with Chef Dan at our beach house in Stone Harbor, NJ for a surprise 30th birthday dinner. The chef was punctual and professional. We were a group of 9 people. Being such a large group, we know it is hard to please everyone, but each item on the menu was delicious and left us wanting Dan to come back again! All dishes were flavorful and described perfectly. We hope we can have Dan cook for us again soon! An added bonus is that he traveled over an hour to come to our house, which was so nice and generous. I'd recommend Chef Dan to anyone!

Chef Daniel was AMAZING! Not only was the food incredible, but he had us entertained the entire night. He told us stories about his journey to becoming a chef, which included many funny times that he’s had with friends and family over the years. He has a beautiful home and his kitchen was a good size for us to be able to move around. He had everything prepared for us to enjoy our experience cooking the menu. All of the ingredients were fresh and all of his equipment was first class. We really felt comfortable cooking with him, because we could tell he knew exactly what he was doing. This was more fun and gratifying than going out to a restaurant, because we go to eat so much delicious food that we were able to cook ourselves. We didn’t know what to expect going into it, but we’re sure glad that we gave it a shot. We highly recommend Chef Daniel as he far exceeded our expectations and we will definitely be back to cook with him again in the future.

What an incredible experience! Chef Daniel brought all the necessary ingredients and supplies right to our house. He helped us understand how to use what we already have to realistically cook an amazing meal. It was the perfect combination of letting us do some of the work without feeling overwhelmed or slowing down the process. Chef Daniel is very knowledgeable and it was fun to talk one-on-one with him. He clearly loves cooking, and we were really glad to share that with him!
