Chef Shailini was an amazing host and is very well versed in the culinary arts. We had a great time making several Mediterranean dishes and desserts. Chef Shailini has so many fascinating stories that she tells over the course of the night and captivates the group very well. I highly recommend anyone interested in tasty food and fun to spend an evening cooking with her. The group had such a great time that we stayed late into the night chatting after enjoying our lovely meals. Thank you Chef!
