Chef Tina (who is also an ND and PHD!) is an absolute gem. Her energy is warm, bubbly and soothing, making our hands-on cooking class so enjoyable. Tina put thought into the ingredients she selected, being mindful of our dietary needs and considering the produce that is in season. My husband and I learned so much and the food was delicious and abundant. Thank you for such a special evening, Tina! We’d be delighted to work with you again!
