What Guests Are Saying About These Experiences With Chef Ajinkya

Lianna T.

09/29/2024

We can't say enough good things about Chef A.J. We absolutely loved the food and the experience. AJ was so warm, welcoming, funny, and so obviously passionate about cooking. We were most impressed with how he could work with the worst possible equipment in the Airbnb we rented. One of our favourite comments was: You know it's a good steak when you can cut it with a Dollar Store knife. We sincerely enjoyed our cooking class with AJ, loved his friendly manner, love of soul music, and great stories. Oh, and he brought aprons and chef hats for us to wear and keep! Highly recommended!!

Karen M.

Chef Ajinkya was so cordial and made the whole experience a fun event. We conversed and he was ready to answer every question. He listened to feedback and taught us knife skills. Great conversation and great food made it a memorable evening.

Natasha N.

Chef AJ was an exceptional host to our entry into Italian cooking. He has a really deep understanding of Italian cuisine. He was able to explain the techniques clearly for us to be involved in the whole process. Our dishes turned out amazing and it was a perfect evening.
