We had THE BEST time with Chef Chris. We loved his method of instruction, and walked away feeling like we could do so much more than just follow a recipe. The food was absolutely delicious and I can’t wait to make pasta at home now! Hands down one of the best date nights we’ve had!!

Chef Chris - Thank you for having Jimmy and I in your home! We not only immensely enjoyed learning how to cook the different cuisine, the conversation took us around the world of places you have visited and it felt as if we had been there with you! Please forward to me the recipes as promised, especially the dessert 🫶🏽 to Npeden55@gmail.com! Again, thank you so very much and we will be repeat customers! Blessings and grace, Norma and Jimmy Martin
