We hired 2gether private chefs for our wedding of 86 people on 7/6/19…read more I really cannot say enough positive things about Amy, Eva, Jen and the rest of the 2gether team. Set aside the amazing food - their service and professionalism is top notch. They made the entire process seamless, from curating the menu to building out the timeline of events to even helping coordinate decorations. Instead of providing us a standard menu, they sat down with us and worked on the menu top to bottom based on "food memories" and our favorite flavors. It was so special to have an event loaded with delicious food that was either based on a memory (empanadas!) or one of our favorite dishes. It's been a week since our wedding and our friends & family are still raving about how good everything was. It goes without saying if I were to ever need chef services for any event big or small, 2gether would hands down be my first phone call. I cannot wait to work with them again!!

The class was only ten people and we were all seated around one large work table, so we were able to hear and see everything. The demonstration and hands-on parts of the class were both very well done. The food was delicious! We had plenty to eat during the day, and they sent us home with food. I can't wait to return for another class!

Jennifer prepared a feast for our small family (16 people) wedding in Harpswell. It was a feat of…read moreculinary wizardry that, occupying a kitchen formerly unfamiliar to her, she cooked and presented a parade of dishes, each one innovative and exquisite. We had in our mix a variety of eaters, including gluten avoiders, vegetarians, and omnivores, and we all were full of food and of compliments. My daughter worked with Jennifer and chose the menu, so I can't name all the things, but there was something with salmon, potatoes, and asparagus that I'm happily eating the leftovers of, and some amazing quinoa with roasted veggies. Super good.

I cannot recommend this cooking studio enough!…read more Our visit here was a birthday present for my girlfriend, and we both were very excited about taking a cooking class together. Well, we not only had a great time learning a new cuisine, but we made some new friends in the process. The studio is in a private home, so the setting is very intimate and private. So, if you have never touched a cooking utensil before, you are definitely in good hands here. If you have, then this becomes an art in learning new and exciting foods and the history behind them. After the food is prepared, we all sit down to dine together and engage in conversation over the meal in which we all took part in preparing. Such fun! Be aware that the studio is BYOB, but the studio does provide wine glasses and soft drinks. We had such a great time that we are hoping to do this again soon. If you enjoy cooking, have always wanted to try, wanted to experience food of different cultures, or all of the above, you owe it to yourself to go to HEAVEN ON EARTH !!!

My partner *loves* coming here because he usually finds exactly what he's looking for (... and a whole bunch of stuff he wasn't looking for, but it inspires him soOooOooo he has to get all of that too). For him, it's five stars. For me, the couple of times I've been to pick up/look for something... the employees have been so, so incredibly rude. Clearly, I don't give off an artsy vibe, and they know it. One particular time that haunts me: I asked about something specific and I used an alternative term for it (but still a correct term; I had to do a quick internet search after I left to see if I really had misspoken - I hadn't) and all four employees behind the counter just stared blankly at me. I repeated my question, explaining what I needed with context so they could visualize what I was talking about, and was met with "never heard of it", "that doesn't exist", "we don't carry anything like that". I eventually found what I was looking for on my own, and when I cashed out I was met with snickers and eyerolls. "Ohhhhhhh, you meant [other term]." I felt so ridiculed and awkward and unwelcome. For me, it's a one star.
