Absolutely was a pleasure to learn and cook with Chef Ricky. Everything was setup perfectly, the vibes were immaculate, the food was delicious. We were so nervous because we’ve never done a cooking class before but this time spent with Chef Ricky was the most wholesome and genuine experience! Will be back with friends!!

I have been wanting to learn about sous vide for a long time. In fact, my husband and I are now looking at purchasing a sous vide and vacuum sealer! I recommend Chef Ricky for this class and others. I’m hoping to do a sushi class with him next. The food was delicious and the best part is I learned how to make it! Chef Ricky keeps you engaged in the process step by step and very entertaining with his knowledge of food and cooking. Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed.
