I hired Erika for a custom home cooking lesson as a Christmas gift for my girlfriend and she certainly lived up to the billing as a 5 star rated chef/instructor. From scheduling to preparing the menu and lesson to being exceedingly personable and helpful in our little kitchen, Erika was extremely professional and easy to work with from beginning to end. I would highly recommend Erika to anyone looking for either a personal chef or in-house cooking lesson. She is knowledgable about a wide range of food and cooking techniques, flexible with menu choices, a friendly and outgoing presence in the kitchen, and most importantly, she is a tremendous chef! We learned a ton, had a great time, and had plenty of leftovers that we enjoyed for a week afterwards.

Chef Erika is very easy to work with. She took the time to understand our family’s needs and collaborated with us to come up with the right menus. The food is delicious, healthy, and more than met our expectations.

Details: Regular meal • 3 - 5 guests • Dinner • Standard (basic ingredients) • American - casual • Italian • Mexican / Latin American • Mediterranean / Middle Eastern • French • Asian • Meal prepared onsite • Weekly • My home, venue, etc.

I booked Chef Erika for my dad's 70th birthday. My parent's can be a little picky but the food was phenomenal and we had a wonderful time. The menu was worked on between us and they loved it. I would recommend Chef Erika and will use her again.
