No direction in the beginning, no microphone so it was difficult to hear, only one food station and it was not ready so there was a lot of waiting and a VERY long line. Venue was freezing cold inside, had to wear a winter coat the entire time. Tables were set with 5 seats, guests had to rearrange so that they could sit 4 or 6. Not enough supplies for the number of people, had to share sushi mats and knives and cutting boards, etc.... Demonstration station was blocked by large plastic wrap box, hard to see. Avocados were not prepped, and when Chef Dan cut them, he did so in large chucks/slices, which was not ideal for sushi. Only one cutting station and one condiment station with sauces and such, more lines to wait in. Would NOT recommend. Will not take any more classes, very disappointed.

Chef Dan was amazing! He was personable, fun and incredibly enthusiastic. Conversation was fun and entertaining and we truly learned a lot about how to make sushi. We are excited to have him come do a private lesson at our home

Chef Dan was very knowledgeable and friendly. He took time to explain the process and help students with hands-on explanations.

We did a class with Chef Dan as a Manager Meeting Activity and it was so great! The event allowed everyone to participate but also allowed for networking and talking! He was also very accommodating in helping us find a venue for the activity!

Shout out to Chef Dan! He’s so charming friendly kind and knowledgeable!! I Took my best friend to this class and we both absolutely loved it! The food was incredibly delicious- some of the best flavors we’ve ever had! Don’t hesitate if you are wondering if you would like this class. Wear comfortable shoes as you will be standing a lot, eat a light supper Bf you come since cooking takes a few hours and if you’re afraid of Covid and germs just stay home and forego enjoying a fun evening of cooking with a true pro whose cooked for presidents and celebrities! From a mom whose cooked for years for my family - I wish I’d met Dan 30 years ago to learn so many cooking secrets!

Amazing experience! We don’t often splurge, but I’m glad we did! We joined for the fancy Italian dinner and it was so yummy! Everything was planned, prepared, and organized perfectly! We even got to bring home extra food & ingredients! Dan was a great host! He was kind and flexible and helped us do everything perfectly.

Chef Dan is an exceptional chef who has prepared meals for many high profile celebrations such as Frank Sinatra and his family, The Trumps, The Clintons and more! His love for cooking and teaching shines through his personality. With his experience he has so many stories to tell that he loves to share with his guests. I highly recommend taking a class with Chef Dan if you are in the area!
