We were on vacation in Malibu and hoping for a night off from restaurants to enjoy the view from our rental. Rick made us a wonderful Mexican meal of halibut ceviche, guacamole, chicken tacos. Everything was outstanding, he was very nice and easy to work with.

We can't thank Rick enough for these incredible dinners prepared at our home. Not only was the food wonderful but it was presented as if our home was a top gourmet restaurant. Our friends are still about these dinners.

In September, Rick prepared a team fundraiser at my home, Rick came up with a fall themed menu within budget, did the shopping and prepared a delicious meal for 12 people and left the kitchen cleaner than when he arrived.

The Instructor was "world class" with supportive instructions and humorous analogies. Considering taking the class for a second time.
