David B. says, "We recently had the pleasure of having Chef Anthony prepare a full meal for my wife, our kids, and me, and it was an absolute delight from start to finish! Chef Anthony was incredibly professional, easy to communicate with, and a true joy to work with. He took the time to understand what we were looking for and delivered a meal that exceeded all our expectations. Every dish was beautifully presented, packed with flavor, and perfectly suited for a family dinner—our kids loved it just as much as the adults did! The food was fresh, creative, and restaurant-quality, but with the comfort and warmth of a home-cooked meal. It felt special and celebratory without being overly fussy, which made the evening truly enjoyable for the whole family. If you’re looking for a private chef who is talented, reliable, personable, and makes the whole process seamless, I highly recommend Chef Anthony. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily book again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Chef Anthony!"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.
