I don't have enough good things to say about Chef Teri! I contacted her to inquire about doing a…read moreteam event with my direct reports, and she came to my house to do a cooking lesson with 7 of us. Everyone had the best time, and the food was incredible. Chef Teri was super responsive from my first email, and she made the booking process easy. I had my team peruse sample menus on the Eatsies site, and we landed on grilled flatbreads with homemade ricotta and strawberry napoleon. The grilled flatbreads can be done with figs, but they weren't in season, so Chef Teri instead showed us how to make the delicious Piatti's garlic dip. Chef arrived with everything we needed (all ingredients as well as equipment). She started off the class by showing us some basic knife skills, and she shared good stories, tips, and tricks throughout the entire lesson. She was great about ensuring each of us got to try out every step so that we would really learn how to make each recipe. The combo of the grilled flatbread with the homemade ricotta (SO good!) and the garlic dip (almost like a chimichurri) was scrumptious! The strawberry napoleon was fun to assemble, beautiful, and delicious. That vanilla lemon whipped cream was *chef's kiss! We all got to enjoy the fruits of our labor right then, and we had some leftovers to send home with people. I think each of us have already made at least one of the recipes again already. The garlic dip is also an excellent marinade on any kind of meat. The entire experience was just perfect. Teri is incredibly fun and engaging, she makes recipes and techniques easy to understand and execute on, and the final product was so good. We will absolutely do more with Chef Teri in the future, and I would recommend Eatsies to everyone!

Teri was incredibly accommodating with the scheduling and menu options. We learned new tricks, and also things we had been doing wrong forever! What an eye opener when you think you know how to cook. Teri is warm, intelligent and funny - and provided a great experience that we will forever cherish. Highly recommend.

So at 100% my fault I didnt anticipate how bad parking would be so I arrived pretty late. Everyone was already getting their dough ready when I arrived, and after a while the instructor came over to let us know what to do. He asked if we had ever made pasta, my wife said she had tried but not successfully, the instructor asked what happened she said it just didn't turn out right and the instructor kept trying to figure out where it went wrong. The instructor came off very cold, and the questioning felt more like an interrogation than friendly advice, I could see my wife was getting uncomfortable so I interjected that I had never made pasta. Without looking at me he quietly stated to my wife that she would be in charge of the table and he walked off. I really thought this would be a little more fun, and interactive but for the most part we were kind of left on our own and the instructor came by to give instruction very coldly. Once we finished with our pasta the young lady assisting came out and took our pastas to boil and we sat. The pasta was nothing special, didn't really inspire me to want to try and make some at home. Some bites were hard, like it could've stood a few more minutes in the water. Also both of our dishes had pesto stains on them Overall not as fun as it sounded, instructor left a lot of opportunity on the table to make this more fun. He was very cold with his instruction. The young lady assistant was very friendly.

San the Cooking guy is a big deal here in San Diego. What was once just a cool little cooking show…read moreon obscure Channel 4 has mushroomed this Canadian transplant-Sam Zien-into an uber-celebrity and "foodie" authority figure. I follow him on Facebook and appreciate that he doesn't Spam his followers like other celebrities are wont to do. Sam the Cooking Guy genuinely appreciate his fans and tells them so! Now all over the airwaves in a Cox Cable commercial, taking over Costco with various book signings, appearing on morning radio shows or doing cooking segments on TV shows-Sam the Cooking Guy is the man! Don't forget his kitschy little cooking show! It's also nice that he is a friendly and unassuming and makes cooking and BBQ-ing look so easy and painless. When you watch his cable channel show, it looks like Sam just opens his frig and throws together whatever is handy. Sam the Cooking Guy DEMYSTIFIES the fine art of cooking. He also does that in the classes he teaches at SD Kitchen & Bath. These "Not-in-the-red" Kitchen Classes feature: * holiday appetizers & drinks- nov. 19 * just things i like- oct. 15 and some other classes that have recently concluded such as BBQ kinda stuff, summer food, birthday menu, and Cinco de Mayo. Rest assured, they all end up selling out because these classes & Special Events are like watching the TV cooking show - but you get to eat and drink everything Sam makes. There's cocktails, tons of food, tons of fun and you'll learn a bunch of important (and unimportant) stuff. Me and my pal are going to take the holiday one to get us into that celebratory end-of-the-year spirit, As Sam likes to say: He is just an everyday guy -(with 12 Emmy's) who has "found a way to make cooking casually understandable. With no fancy equipment and by speaking English instead of 'chef-speak," Sam is a sort of "everyman of television cooking." A 5 STAR YELP Everyman!

I met Phil at a Christmas party where he was cooking for a friend of mine, and I was completely…read moreblown away by how delicious everything was. Every dish was incredible! Later I found out that Phil prepares and delivers personal meals for people who live alone or just want amazing home-cooked food without the hassle. Now he brings me a week's worth of meals every Thursday, and I honestly look forward to it every single week to see what he's made next. His pot roast was unbelievable--honestly even better than the one I make, and I consider myself a pretty good cook! Everything he prepares is thoughtful, flavorful, and clearly made with real skill and care. Phil also offers personal cooking classes. I'm planning a pasta night with a few friends where we'll make our own ravioli and sauce together, enjoy a bottle of Chianti, and learn from a truly talented chef. I can't wait! If you're looking for a fantastic personal chef, weekly meal service, or even a fun cooking experience with friends, Phil is absolutely the person to call. Highly recommend!

I couldn't recommend him more for your special dinner and evening. Among other reasons why: Communication: He was incredibly responsive and thorough from day one. He answered my questions and helped me prep everything from the food to the kitchen set up to make the night a success. Very professional and helpful. Kid-friendly vibe: Chef walked into a wild house with 6 fifth grade boys watching the Ram's championship game. He was so positive and there for it all! He adjusted his tip sessions during commercials and kept the boys super engaged even with so much going on. FOOD: He and Tiffany prepared creamy mashed potatoes, homemade herbed butter, multiple cuts of steak and fresh broccoli - all of it was INCREDIBLE. The flavors were some of the best we've enjoyed. Thank you, Chef Philly Phil and Tiffany!
