Chef David was funny, personable, and an excellent chef and teacher. The end result was the best ceviche and lomo saltado we have ever eaten. It was an evening we will remember forever.

Chef David’s class is an experience in tastes. He is so knowledgable about how various ingredients add to the final total flavor. We learned a lot from him, information we will bring home and try to incorporate into our own cooking. Plus he’s a very warm and friendly man. We enjoyed the entire experience with him!
