We had a fantastic experience with our chef yesterday. He prepared a French-inspired menu that included cheese soufflé, haricots verts, chicken cordon bleu, cheesy potatoes, and tarte tatin — and he even surprised us by adding French onion soup. Everything was delicious, and there was definitely no shortage of food. In fact, there was so much that we were all in a bit of a food coma by the end of the evening. Instead of a traditional sit-down dinner, the evening flowed more like a progressive tasting experience. He cooked each dish one at a time, explaining what he was doing along the way and getting us involved in the process. We ended up hanging out in the kitchen together, drinking wine, laughing, and learning as we went, which honestly made the night even more fun. We learned quite a few techniques, including how to properly slice onions, how to dredge chicken for cordon bleu, and even about fermented garlic and how it adds depth to dishes. It felt like a relaxed cooking lesson mixed with a dinner party. My favorite dishes were the cheese soufflé and the tarte tatin. They were both incredible. By the time the chicken cordon bleu was ready I was already so full that I only managed a bite, but it was excellent too. One of my favorite moments was just standing around the kitchen together while the soufflés came out of the oven, watching them rise and then tasting them fresh while the chef explained what makes them work. Overall it was a great experience and we would absolutely recommend the class. It was interactive, educational, and a lot of fun — a perfect mix of learning, great food, and a really enjoyable evening.

Chef Timothy was wonderful. He came fully prepared and made a fabulous meal. He will let you participate as much or as little as you like. There were only 2 of us and the amount of food he made would have fed several. We will definitely enjoy the leftovers. Thank you for a fun evening!
