Dining with chef Inga was a great experience. We made Italian salad, chicken Marsala and a strawberry desert. We enjoyed the fact that recipes weren’t overly complicated and can be replicated at home. The food was also prepared with healthy ingredients as well. Chef Inga was down to earth and shared interesting stories about her experience in the restaurant industry.

Chef Inga's Healthy Cooking class was a fantastic experience. Chef Inga was very welcoming, and I really appreciated how she took the time to explain the techniques she was using. I learned new ways to prepare and cook chicken, which were easy to replicate at home. I was so proud that the chicken I cooked at home later that week turned out just as juicy as the one we made in class together. I'm looking forward to taking another class with Chef Inga!

Chef Inga was absolutely delightful!!! My friend and I had an amazing time, and we are sure to visit again soon. Not only was she charming, she was oh so friendly and personable, and made us feel right at home! So many chefs focus on complex dishes that are difficult to recreate, but Chef Inga showed us how to make dishes that were not only beautiful in aesthetic, but that were also tasty and simple to whip up. Thank you for the fun evening!!!

Inga was a delightful host and made us feel at home. We loved her method of teaching and came away with the spirit of the experience. Anyone can read a recipe but turning it into a delicious meal is a matter of the senses and the process. She knows how to separate the road map from the trip and it was a wonderful trip. Thank you Inga. We look forward to our next excursion. Becky & Dennis

Everything was fantastic, the food, the experience, and the conversation. The dishes were tasty and easy enough to follow and re-create at home. It was a very private experience, just us and the chef. That made it easier and more comfortable to learn and ask questions. I will definitely be taking another class in the future.

Inga was awesome! I am completely new to cooking, and she was incredibly patient and kind. By the end of the session, I had learned so much, had the chance to eat the delicious food, and I can't wait to try the recipe when I return home. 10/10!

The Authentic Russian Cuisine class I took from Inga was fabulous, it exceeded my expectations in every way. Inga is absolutely delightful--not only is she a wonderful chef, she is a great conversationalist and puts thoughtful detail into everything she presents. She creates a very special ambience in her kitchen. I learned a lot, not only about cooking techniques and tips, but on an array of interesting subjects. This was a truly unique experience and I highly, highly recommend taking a class with Chef Inga. I will return for another!

Our family of 4 (including 2 teenage girls) had a wonderful Sunday evening taking a class with Chef Inga. She is very professional and passionate about what she does. The recipes were delicious and easier than we thought. The entire experience was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. I highly recommend to everyone!

We had such a wonderful time with Chef Inga! She taught us how to make some intimidating dishes we wouldn't have tried on our own, and we had so much fun learning about the history of each dish. We also really loved that she taught us how to personalize the dishes and what to do to change them slightly when we cook them at home, it's great to have options and we will definitely be going back! Thank you Chef Inga!
