My private cooking lesson with Erika was amazing! We spoke in advance about what type of meals I normally cook and what I wanted to work on. Erika really was such a pleasure to work with. She focused more on making me comfortable in my own kitchen and using different ingredients rather than harping on knife skills. I was blown away by how great everything turned out - restaurant quality food that I can actually cook again on my own in my kitchen!

Erika cooked for our 11-person bachelorette party dinner and it was a complete delight! She really listened to all of our ideas when pulling together the menu, was quick to respond, and was a really nice presence at the dinner. We had gluten free and vegetarian restrictions, but you'd never know it! The food was amazing - and I'll be thinking of her almond cake until we work with her again! Thanks, Erika!

Cooking a steak dinner for a 12-man bachelor party is quite the task but Chef Erika went above and beyond expectations. All 12 of us sat silent and in ravenous awe of how delicious everything came out, spent hours talking about the amazing meal afterwards, and her tact and professionalism can not be understated. Highly recommended.

On short notice Erika and I put together a most wonderful evening for my wife on valentines day. Erika was willing to cook us dinner on her way home from another engagement. She was wonderful to work with when setting up our menu. She was able to shop for the necessary ingredients and work around my schedule. Upon arriving home, Erika had delicious appetizers waiting for us. The entrees and side dishes were amazing and cooked to perfection. Dessert was also fantastic. Erika's demeanor was pleasant and professional when engaged in conversation and her presence was virtually undetectable at other times. A lovely evening with great food and service. Thank you Erika.
