created created an amazing cooking experience that I would highly recommend to anyone! I had purchased a cooking lesson for my sister and Lamont exceeded all expectations. He is as talented as he is kind, patient, and personable. He made my sister feel comfortable and confident cooking a fancy dinner, from knife basics to sauce secrets (butter, the secret is butter). We had such a good time and I hope to use his services again in the future!

I booked Lamont for a little family sea boil. Boy was I blown away! The professionalism was so refreshing. You can tell he takes pride in his craft. Don’t even get me started on the FLAVORRRRR. Everything was GONE. Each bite had me wanting more. I highly recommend this service and will be booking again in the future! Please look at the photos provided.😋😋
