Every bite was better than the last, culminating in an extraordinary dining experience! Chef Robert was personable but professional, he arrived just a few minutes before start time and cleaned as he went. Highly recommend!

Chef Robert was an absolute delight! He arrived early and was ready to go in no time. He was extremely patient with us and so helpful. I was writing down recipe information so I could cook it again, and he never got frustrated for having to repeat directions, measurements, or ingredients. He was so polite and funny -- just really personable. The food was AMAZING!!!! OMG the seasonings were on point! There were two of us (me and my daughter) who received the Modern Surf & Turf in-home class. He told us of other classes he does and we can't wait to use him again!!! I HIGHLY recommend Chef Robert if you want to learn to make a tasty meal that is not just pretty food, but also YUMMY food! I am so excited to make the menu soon. He also told us we could contact him in the future if we have any questions or need any help! THANK YOU CHEF ROBERT!!!!

Chef Rob is great and professional, I had a Birthday dinner for my Mom with my siblings and dinner was prepared in less than a hour and shortly after desert was served. I'm definitely going to ask for Chef Rob again in the near future.
