Erika S. says, "Working with Destiny was an absolute pleasure!! I hired her to cook for me and my friends for my bachelorette party, and she exceeded all of my expectations. My friends and I loved her warm and personable style, and we were all blown away by her talent, experience, and absolutely AMAZING food! From the beginning, Destiny was quick to respond, incredibly detailed, and set up an initial phone call right away. Based on my brief description of what I was looking for (seafood and veggie forward dishes with some fusion-y flavors) she immediately described a menu that was EXACTLY what I wanted. Her pricing was very reasonable, and she gave me options that stayed within the budget I had given her. From the moment she arrived at the VRBO, we were incredibly impressed. She literally brought everything with her - fresh fish from the harbor, plates, utensils, linen napkins, and everything else needed for the meal. It happened to be a very hot weekend and the house had no AC, but she somehow managed to barely even break a sweat! Each course had so much depth and delicious flavor, and we loved learning about all of the components of each dish and how she created each unique element of the plates. Everything was beautifully plated, and we loved the food so much that every single dish was wiped clean! The hamachi crudo with passionfruit vinaigrette was a particular highlight, but everything she made was phenomenal. We also thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Destiny throughout the evening. She shared stories about her background and culinary experience, as well as the influences behind her favorite styles of cooking, which made the whole experience feel even more special and personal. When she was finished, the kitchen looked immaculate, as if no one had been there at all! Every aspect of hiring Destiny as a private chef was wonderful. She was truly one of the highlights of my bachelorette weekend, and I could not have asked for a better chef, a better meal, or a better experience to celebrate with. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an incredible private chef!"See more

Esther S. says, "This meal by Sandra exceeded our expectations in every way—from the incredible flavors to the thoughtful choice of ingredients and the beautiful variety of textures throughout the meal. My husband and I were thoroughly impressed. Sandra prepared a lobster tail dish that was perfectly cooked and deeply flavorful. We also enjoyed a uni pasta made with fresh angel hair, accompanied by generous bonus pieces of uni on the side. The vegetable dishes were equally memorable: a kale salad with watermelon radish and a vibrant green sauce, and a warm sweet potato salad that was comforting and well-balanced. Each dish could stand beautifully on its own, but together with the lobster and pasta, they created a truly cohesive and satisfying meal. We couldn’t be happier."See more

FAQs

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

You can take private cooking classes to have fun, to learn a new skill, to improve your health, to bond with your partner, to enjoy a playful first date or to have a unique birthday party experience. Nationally the average cost of private cooking lessons ranges between $100 and $150. Prices can vary, depending on where you live, the type of cooking class you’re taking, the ingredients the chef provides, and the reputation of the chef. Cooking classes with Anthony Bourdain will clearly cost more than classes with a local restaurant owner. The number of people in the class will also affect the cost, with group lessons often priced per person to account for the cost of ingredients. For example, for group lessons, a brunch workshop may cost an average of $70 per person, a steak dinner with sides could cost an average of $80-$85 per person, and a sushi lesson could cost an average of $100 per person. Ingredients play a major role in cost, as the chef will pre-purchase the food you will be working with. Weekday classes will usually cost less than weekend classes.
