Chef Eli ran the kitchen and the ensemble of amateur chefs like a conductor directs and pulls the best performance from their symphony orchestra. And the result was an amazing and sumptuous three course meal of our own making, paired with the perfect wine.
I loved every minute of it. Thank you for the wonderful experience!
