Chef Eric very easy to work with, very fun, very experienced, shows skill and tips on doing things correctly during the food prep. Very patient and answers all questions. He can cook using what ever is on hand doesn’t need specialized gadgets. A true chef all the way. Appreciates flavor and texture and simple fresh ingredients. Teaches you to use your senses when cooking. Will be going back for sure. Use Chef Eric. He’s the real deal.
