He began by holding private classes for anyone with an appetite to learn the art of cookery—including beginners and self-proclaimed pros. Chef Frank moved onto orchestrating and conducting both hands-on and demonstration classes in Parma, Italy, but has now settled in Chicago where he uses his gifts of teaching and cooking in school settings.

WHAT YOU’LL DO
Learn how to craft the perfect pie dough to form the foundation of four courses!
In this hands-on class, Chef Frank will show you how to make an easy, foolproof, deliciously flaky pie crust that will work as the basis of the four different pies and tarts you will prepare in this class.
Once you've made your dough, you will begin the pie and tart extravaganza with the creation of a classic chicken pot pie. Then, you will prepare a homemade fruit compote for a double-crust pie, a sweet walnut filling for a walnut crunch tart, and a streusel topping for America's favorite apple pie.

Joanne B.
We enjoyed a wonderful afternoon cooking pies with Chef Frank. He was knowledgeable, personable and gave us many helpful cooking tips!
We had a great time and learned a lot today. Thank you, Chef Frank!
took the pies and tarts aplenty class. what was supposed to be an endearing learning experience was instead an absolute shit show. we were not provided proper tools. all the ingredients for the filling of the pot pie obviously came in a can. we made enough crust for one pie, the rest of the dishes were made with pillsbury. yes, the kind you buy in the freezer aisle. he tried to send us home with uncooked quiche as if liquid just stays where it’s put. felt rushed the entire time. horribly disappointing experience overall, couldn’t even bare to stay the full 2.5 hours.

Booked the class Pasta From Across Italy with Chef Frank in Niles
My wife and I had a great experience cooking with Chef Frank. First time ever making handmade pasta and it was phenomenal. 3 dishes in total and a ton of food including leftovers. Very knowledgeable and fun chef. Would highly recommend!

Booked the class Nutritious and Delicious Vegetarian with Chef Frank in Niles
My partner and I took the vegetarian dinner class. Chef Frank was very welcoming and kind! He even accommodated us earlier than expected. He explained important information about how to prepare and cut vegetables, how to season food appropriately, and why it's important to use proper cookware. He also helped us make handmade pasta (huge bonus, we were not expecting that in this course). He demonstrated for us so that we felt comfortable each step of the way. He balanced instruction for a newer chef and one with more experience as well. We ended up with a delicious dinner to eat there, and two dishes to take home! We had a fabulous time, thank you Chef Frank! (The french onion casserole was amazing).

I had a nice experience with Chef Frank — he is an excellent host and his food is fantastic. His place is close to beautiful golf courses surrounded by trees and green everywhere — you feel calm and relaxed as soon as you enter, where he also offers a nice selection of music. His food was tasty and the portions were perfect. One of my favorite plates was the pork with red peppers because of the mixture of sweet and salty. I also liked the fish with olives...delicious. At the end, I enjoyed two desserts made with nuts and brown sugar, perfect with a glass of champagne or a cup of coffee. Frank comes from Chicago and so do his flavors. I highly recommend Chef Frank for your next culinary experience.

Frank was great. He was easy to schedule and coordinate menus with. Incredibly prompt, personable, with great food. An amazing value. Will definitely use Frank again.
Larry
This overall experience was quite good. Frank and I spent time designing a menu based on our initial conversation. Frank arrived on time, dove into my kitchen, was self-sufficient and 30 minutes later he was serving apps to begin the meal. Frank left the kitchen cleaned, filled the dishwasher, and put the leftovers, labeled and stored, in the fridge. I don't know if Frank "read" the clients to decide how chatty to be, but he was minimal with us, which was fine, but if you want more talk he would be good at that also.
