What a wonderful experience my husband and I had with Chef Greg. He was professional but down to earth and we enjoyed his company. Even though this event was a private dinner and not a hands-on cooking experience, Chef Greg was happy to share his knowledge and experience with any questions we brought his way. The meal was magnificent! We would definitely book him again for another dinner and are eager to try his cooking classes sometime in the future.

We enjoyed our evening with Chef Greg. Food was delicious and interesting, something that we wouldn’t try to make ourselves. He wears personable and connected well with us. He was more than willing to teach us cooking skills and answer questions from curious wannabe cooks. Would definitely recommend this experience.

I bought this for a gift for my business partner and his wife, they loved it and booked it for their Friday date night! They called me after the dinner and couldn’t keep talking about how wonderful the experience was and they even learned a few new things even though they both cook all of the time. They said the food was fresh and great too! The overall experience was great and I’m definitely going to get this as a gift for more people…I prefer gifting experiences vs actual gifts! Thank you Chef Greg!

Our evening with Chef Greg was outstanding and memorable. He tailored our daughter-in-law's birthday dinner menu to fit our request for a plant based meal. Chef Greg explained his recipes to us and invited each of us to participate in the dinner preparation. The end products were appealing to the eye and savory. I would recommend Chef Greg to anyone wanting to learn how to prepare foods that are tasty and healthy from a knowledgeable, experienced and personable individual.
