We had a totally plant based meal; an interesting olive tapenade over sourdough bread, delicious soup, roasted vegetables over mashed celeriac, an a coconut creme with red plums and pistachios. I learned many things about how to bring out flavors and how to mix flavors. There were four of us and we all had an outstanding time. Chef Joshua was a brilliant, kind and interesting teacher.

Chef Joshua was absolutely wonderful and he made the experience comfortable and fun almost immediately. The selection of the recipes was great and the food was delicious. He was very nice to talk to and we came away with some awesome new recipes, a ton of restaurant recommendations, and reading material to understand how and why certain foods are prepared.
Great experience, exceeded all expectations!

Already gave a tip. Appreciated the general food and cooking technique tips included in the session. Chef is very knowledgeable and willing to share that knowledge. Didn't feel judged for not being very experienced. Very supportive. The food was delicious.

Joshua was incredible! My boyfriend and I had so much fun learning how to make pasta from scratch. The food was delicious but the overall experience and culinary knowledge/skills we gained was the best surprise. Having chef in my home was so smooth - we will definitely be booking again!

Our Savory Jaliscan Cuisine private chef experience with Chef Joshua was incredible. There were six of us and the experience exceeded all of our expectations. Not only that the food off-the-charts good, our conversations with Joshua was so much fun. We look forward to more experiences with Joshua.

Joshua was prepared, authentic, and charismatic and it showed through his food, too! We were more than happy with what he created and how he explained each individual choice. If we could have Joshua 24/7, we’d offer him a room! Thank you again :)
