Chef Yapo graduated from San Diego Culinary Institute and quickly learned that he loved talking about food with the customers more than working in the restaurant, so he started working for people directly with local and organic foods in 2009. Chef Yapo enjoys handmade pasta, unique flavors and global fusion flavors, and is very passionate about no-food-waste-cooking and teaching others how to do it.

Chef Yapo is great! He was so gracious with his time and even offered to walk my girlfriend and I through the entire process of the meal! We learned so much and are excited to do some more cooking on our own :)

Chef Yapo provided a great experience for my family! We bought the cooking class for my dad as a Christmas present because he loves cooking and being with family. He was extremely thorough. Brought all of the ingredients and everything that we needed. He provided us a lot of education about cooking and the ingredients. We never knew how much work it was to make ravioli but Chef Yapo made it easy! My dad and family loved the class! Thank you!!!

Chef Yapo was a consummate professional and a lot of fun! We got to make pasta from scratch - need I say more?! It was a very hands-on experience, we all got to participate and learn in the process. And the food we made was delicious! Good time had by all!

My husband and I learned so much from Chef Yapo about how to peel ginger (iвЂ™be been doing it the hard way for years), peel and chop garlic, and how to season fresh fish. Cooking was fun and didnвЂ™t feel like a chore. The menu he selected was delicious. We were both so proud of our time in the kitchen and canвЂ™t wait to do it again with our family and friends.

Chef Yapo is a true inspiration. I won't ruin the surprise but he has a back story that will knock your socks off. He's a wonderful chef with LOADS of talent and excitement and passion for his food. His gnudi is light and soft and his excitement is palpable. Take his class, you'll learn a lot!
