Chris was professional, punctual, and considerate! We learned new techniques, got to ask any question we wanted, and he easily integrated into our family dynamics! He was especially kind to our 18-year-old son by getting him involved and teaching directly with him at times. On top of all that, the food we prepared was delicious! Some food items we would have never purchased at the store are now on our list to try again. He shared the recipes at the end of the night. Would definitely have him back again for more fun.

Chef Chris and his team were great. They showed up a little early to get set up and prepared. They were very kind to everyone but also focused on their craft. The food was amazing, everyone truly enjoyed the flavors and presentation. They cleaned up nicely and were out of there in no time at all. I would definitely recommend.

We had the best experience with Chef Chris. We hired him to cook brunch for my fiance's 30th birthday. He was on time, professional, and made great company during the time he was at our house. But the best part was the food!! Everything he made was delicious. The meal was even more enjoyable than what we could have gotten in a restaurant for the same money. We would ask Chef Chris to cook for us again without a doubt. Thank you Chef Chris!

We picked a meal that was actually too basic for our group. Chef was pleasant and friendly. Wasn't too fond of potato soup, lacked texture and seasoning. Liked using leak tops as garnish.

The “Stunning Seafood Spread” was fantastic! Chef Chris has a very nice “hands-on” approach to teaching — first demonstrating and then allowing us to take over. Every dish was delicious and beautifully presented. We would definitely take another class with Chef Chris!
