Desired cooking skills
Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Every catering service I have come in contact with has, what I call, a "base menu" that you can choose your meals from. I don't work that way. I sit down with my clients & try to get a feel for what they want and can afford. Then I work a menu around their specific needs. Very personal in my opinion. Because I'm an independent, I usually only work with groups of 20 or less for catering or. BUT, I have served upwards of 60, It all hinges on the needs of the customer, Pricing starts at $25 per hour plus groceries for meal delivery, $65 private cooking lessons including groceries, 85 p/p for a cooking demo in my home, $200 for a dinner for 2 served in your home and to $500+ for an event caterer. It all depends on the customers request. Simple - I love to cook!! It used to be cooking for my family would give me enough satisfaction. But even though 2 of the 3 live @ home, they're now grown & have their own lives. Cooking for other people, family or not, is my "passion!"

Sarah was great! I told her ahead of time what I needed help with. She had all the ingredients ready. I get very anxious when cooking and Sarah was great telling me relax and chill out. The food came out perfect! I was able to recreate it exactly at home. I look forward to learning more from her and bringing my sister for some pescatarian cooking.

Sarah's warm and friendly style of instruction was a pleasure. I was there for my first class with her to prepare a beef tenderloin roast and handmade rosemary yeast rolls which turned out absolutely delicious and will now be in my menu for Christmas Day. I not only learned how to master these dishes but while we were mixing, chopping, and seasoning, she casually revealed to me many other cooking tips From how to create some beautiful marinades, soup stocks, and flavored oils to presentation, and ideas for leftover meals, as well as how to take these specific recipes and transfer them to many other dishes in the future by changing one or two of the ingredients. I received a huge amount of information in a short two hour class. All of it in such a easy simple straightforward and fun way that I actually retained it all in my head and have used many of her additional tips since my class with great success. Sarah makes cooking fun and creative and I left there with not only a fantastic meal, but a renewed excitement toward cooking in general. The one class has opened my eyes to the joys of cooking. Sarah, I can't thank you enough. I will positively be returning for many more classes!

My girlfriend and I had a lesson with Sarah. We both had a wonderful time and felt the experience was well worth the money. We are already planning to schedule another lesson.

    Be as specific as possible as to your needs. Forinstance, how many guests, any special dietary needs, the date, time & facility where the event will take place, if you want a specific recipe to be included etc.
