What You’ll Do

With Chef Dwayne as your guide, you’ll learn how simple techniques can create dishes that feel rustic, elegant and full of flavor. Start by whipping creamy ricotta with rosemary, then serve it with honey and crisp crostini for a sweet-savory appetizer. Next, practice searing chicken until golden before building a rich Marsala sauce with mushrooms and fresh herbs. You’ll also prepare lemon-garlic green beans topped with Parmesan for a bright, savory side. To finish, you’ll make basil-lemon granita with mascarpone cream, a refreshing dessert that feels light, fragrant and unexpected. Reserve your spot today!

Everything I've tried has been fresh, balanced, and incredibly delicious. What really stands out is his ability to create meals that feel both comforting and elevated. Whether it's a familiar favorite or something more creative, every bite reflects his skill and passion for cooking. He's also incredibly professional, easy to work with, and genuinely cares that people enjoy what he creates.

Hiring Dwayne was the best decision of the entire trip. Genuinely one of the best meals we’ve ever had, and he made it so fun and easy. He made a three course vegan meal that all party members loved, vegan or not. If you want an impressive meal with excellent presentation, Dwayne is your guy.
