Chef Benoit provided an excellent experience, sharing his extensive experience preparing French cuisine in a relaxed and comfortable environment. He expertly walked us through the preparation of a relatively easy recipe that was both piquant and practical in equal measure. I highly recommend the experience to anyone who enjoys French cuisine.
Great date night! Chef Benoit was friendly, funny, and a fantastic chef. Our group cooked meal was fantastic to enjoy at the dining room table.

Chef Benoit’s class went above and beyond our expectations! We learned so much. Benoit taught & demonstrated new concepts, but then he let us make everything ourselves, so we truly feel like we’re equipped to make this meal (and others!) on our own. The food was incredible — I can’t believe we were able to make so many delicious dishes in only two hours! We will be back to try Benoit’s other classes for sure. Thank you!

Chef Benoit’s Elegant French Meal class was a delightful experience! He was kind, polite, enthusiastic, and welcoming to the class. He is not only an excellent cook but also an outstanding teacher! The class focused on French cuisine. Chef Benoit provided each one of the participants with a hands-on experience, one-on-one instructions on properly cutting the fish and vegetables, preparing a delicious sauce, and mixing ingredients, among other important details. He carefully explained each step of the process to create a tasty and delicate three-course dinner menu. The end result was a delicious dinner elegantly served by Chef Benoit in the cozy ambiance of his home. I had a pleasant, fun, and enriching experience! I learned a lot and greatly enjoyed Chef Benoit's class! I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in having a nice, enhancing culinary skills experience!

Attending a cooking class at Chef Benoit's cozy home was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, he was not only skilled and knowledgeable but also warm and accommodating, making us feel at ease. The ambiance was perfect—romantic and jazzy, setting the tone for an intimate and engaging evening. Every dish we prepared was delicious, but the highlight for me was the Apple Tarte Tatin—absolutely divine! If you're looking for a hands-on culinary experience with a talented chef in a charming setting, this class is a must-- just bring your wine! Highly recommend!

We decided to book Chef Benoit for a Valentine’s Day dinner/date. My partner and I came in with different cooking abilities and both found the experience enjoyable!
Chef Benoit prepared a delicious menu that was easy to follow while still exposing us to French cuisine and techniques! He was easy to talk to and was happy to answer any questions we had about the process. Overall, a very enjoyable time if you are looking to learn more about cooking and eat a lovely meal afterwards.
Great learning. Great food. Great company. Learned a lot without having to do to much. A fun and relaxing evening.

Today I celebrated my birthday with my daughter at Chef Benoit’s home. Him and his wife were very inviting and made us comfortable from the time we arrived. He was very accommodating by making changes to the original menu due to my diet restrictions, although it was last minute changes, everything turned out delicious!!! I would definitely recommend him for all cozymeal first timers or returning customers!! Thanks Chef Benoit for an amazing birthday meal!

My teen son and I had a wonderful time! We weren’t sure what to expect; it was a pleasure to meet Chef’s family and hear about his experiences as a professional chef, while we prepared delicious desserts. His delightful hospitality was a warm addition to our holiday season, and has inspired my son to explore more creations.
