About
I've been in business for 4 years, and have over 14 years experience working with some of the top food establishments in Los Angeles and Austin. My focus is on Mediterranean food-- my family is from Calabria, Italy, and I have lived in Portugal, Jordan, Oman, and Greece. My passion is using seasonal, quality, fresh, LOCAL ingredients together for incredible meals, or teaching you how to in a cooking class. My job is to give you a special experience to remember!

Chef Kristina was like having a family member in our home. Her food and personality were amazing, and it was wonderful to get sit and enjoy and not have to worry about anything. We also thoroughly enjoyed watching and learning how to make pasta dough.

I had the most perfect birthday dinner thanks to chef Kristina. She created the best experience for my friends and I and every dish was delicious. We learned so much and had a blast. She was such a good teacher and put together a one of a kind experience. 10/10 would recommend and re-hire her every time.

I did a dinner party cooking class for my friends virtually, and we had a blast. Kristina has a very fun and personable attitude which adds to the overall event. I’ve never made my own dough for anything and she was very patient with me lagging behind the others! Our dishes turned out delicious. Such a fun girls night treat!

Sam, thank you so much for the kind words! You did so great-- the best thing about the pasta gods is that they are very forgiving lol! Can't wait for our next one!
