Chef At Home

History

With roots in San Francisco with the Fusion on The Fly parties, I am now in NY. Fusion on the Fly is a party concept (still available) where 4 guests or couples each bring two items of food. They can be anything and they are encouraged not to talk to each other or coordinate. With available pantry items (in your kitchen or mine) I create a menu, and write recipes in the first few minutes. We assign tasks and within 90 minutes are sitting down to a full, often multi course meal. Many of those dishes created at those parties have become standard in my house and those are what I share in the classes, along with techniques for getting a perfect roast chicken, a delicious shrimp marinade and some Pestos you may never have heard of.

Specialties

I teach private customized improvisational cooking classes for groups of up to 4 only. I don't cook, I supervise and taste, the students do all of the cooking. When you leave you will know from hands on how to make a dish, not just handed a photocopy of a recipe. We make a full meal and serve wine (gratis) at dinner and sparkling at brunch and lunch. Groups of 4 can choose vegetarian, gluten free, or meals for diabetics.
