Where do I start!! This was the absolute best birthday surprise that I have ever had!! The food was amazing! Chef Damon educated us throughout the entire experience. He accommodated the request of vegetarian dishes which were all flavorful. I wanted to do a little dance after every bite! Thank you again Chef Damon!

My husband and I attended our very first cooking class, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! Chef Damon was the most amazing host—warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the class fun, engaging, and easy to follow. The group we shared the evening with was wonderful, which made the experience even better. We laughed, learned, and connected with some great people while preparing a beautiful four-course Italian meal. Though my husband and I aren’t new to the kitchen, this menu and experience were new to us—and we can’t wait to recreate these dishes at home. Every course was absolutely top tier—from the fresh and flavorful Tomato Bruschetta, to the rich and savory Chicken Marsala, the perfectly creamy Risotto, and the decadent Tiramisu to finish. Every bite tasted like something from a fine dining restaurant! We left not only full and happy but also inspired and excited to try these recipes at home. If you’re considering a cooking class, don’t hesitate—this is the one to take! Thank you, Chef Damon and Danni, for such a memorable evening! We’ll be back soon!
