Amazing! Chef Jelo was extremely professional and courteous. He took the time to pick ingredients I could easily purchase. He was very thorough in showing me techniques and explaining how to recreate what was cooked. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Chef Jelo for another instruction.

Chef Jelo did an absolutely FANTASTIC job preparing and serving a delicious sushi dinner for 10 people celebrating a bachelorette weekend. Everything about the meal felt special and stress-free. He easily accommodated different food preferences/restrictions and everything he served was incredible! I highly recommend hiring Chef Jelo for your next event- you will not be disappointed!!

  I went to Culinary Institute of Charleston and have been working in the kitchen and sushi for almost 11 years now.
