Chef Jerry and his sous chef have amazing personalities and skill, however, the meat served was so tough that I could not cut it.... poor choice. Please take me off of your email list.

My dad gave this experience to my mom for Christmas. My mom loves to cook, my dad - not so much. They called the next day raving about the night. They could not say enough about Chef Jerry! He was engaging and fun. He taught my parents so much and put my dad's nerves at ease. They tried food they had never had before and they are looking forward to cooking the meal again with all the tricks Chef Jerry provided. My parents are already planning to book another meal with Chef Jerry. Thanks for making it such a special night for the two of them!
