This was a Christmas gift for my husband who always wanted to take a cooking class. We felt right at home in Dan's kitchen. It was a great mix of showing us techniques and allowing us to try but also keeping things moving. The food was delicious and Dan was an excellent teacher and host. We would highly recommend.

After graduating from culinary school, Chef Daniel completed an internship in Umbria, Italy and became a sous chef shortly afterward, partnering with Iron Chef Jose Garces. He's spent the last five years as the go-to chef for a selection of eateries within a restaurant group that has helped elevate a neighborhood in disrepair into a desirable upscale destination.
