Booked the menu Exquisite Seafood Soirée with Chef Joshua Elias in Arvada

Chef Joshua was SUCH a pleasure to have in our home. The night flew by via an onslaught of excellent food and fun conversation. Chef shared cooking tips and tricks (in addition to what we were making) and entertained us with many stories of his adventures in the field. The food itself was outstanding - we could tell the ingredients were fresh, the recipes were unique and everything was truly made with love. I would recommend Chef Joshua to anyone interested in this type of experience.

We were curious students of the game and he answered all of our questions about the pasta-making experience. We made gnocchi a few days after his visit based on his guidance and it turned out excellent. I would highly recommend this to anyone with an interest in learning more or honing their craft.

There was a mixup with scheduling. My daughter set up a lesson for 1/5/24 and gave it to me for Christmas. When I tried to redeem the gift card, I couldn’t find the scheduled lesson. I did online chat and explained I was to have chef Elias on 1/5 at 6pm. They sent me a link and I confirmed appointment but I didn’t notice that they changed the date. He showed up on 12/29 when I was out of town. My wife explained that it was supposed to be 1/5 and he said no problem, I will return next week. Except he did not show. My daughter paid $200 for nothing. I have to pay again to get lesson. I am very disappointed and would never recommend this service to anyone!!!
