Our time with Chef Andrew was an amazing experience. We cooked and had dinner in his home which was extremely hospitable. We had never done anything like this before so this was very unique for us and didn't quite know what to expect. Andrew started us off with a short tour of his home and some Champagne. The magic happened in his kitchen where it was cozy but he had streamlined the process so that we weren't interfering with each other. I felt there was a perfect balance of what the Chef had prepared ahead of time and what we completed in the evening. For amateurs like ourselves, the tasks he had us do were not too easy or difficult. Chef Andrew made a point to explain things along the way as he hoped we would leave there being better cooks, which we are. After dinner, he prepared coffee and tea to our liking and served it to us in front of a fire (which he had managed to keep going all while we were cooking) in his beautiful backyard. Chef Andrew is a wonderful cook, teacher, and personality.

Chef Andrew was truly a pleasure to be around. He demonstrated an extreme amount of attention to detail, and he taught us a number of useful cooking tips. The food we prepared was healthy but still totally delicious. I was really impressed with the presentation of each dish, which all looked so beautiful. His place is perfect for entertaining — especially the backyard! Could not have been happier with our experience.

I booked Chef Andrew for a business event in my San Juan Capistrano home, and I'm so pleased I did. His warm, generous spirit immediately filled the room and helped to elevate my event. When it comes to food, he clearly knows his stuff, and he made sure each guest knew the history and nutritional info of each dish. All in all, I couldn't have been happier. Chef Andrew, thanks so much! I'm having another event in 2020, and I can't wait to have you join us!
