My husband and I had the privilege of participating in a private cooking class hosted by Chef Joe, and it was such a fun and interactive experience. He taught us several of his signature appetizers that are amazingly delicious and even more amazingly simple. He also taught us a couple of steak and shrimp entrees, and two yummy desserts! He let us practice what he was teaching us, from cutting prosciutto, peeling shrimp, and how to shape salmon cakes. He knew his stuff well, answered a lot of questions, especially the what-if's for the amateur cooks and chefs at home! He was a great sport and taught us well. We'd definitely love to be catered by him someday or take his class again! read more
