Testimonials

“Some of us grew up to know Lucy and Ethel, Lavern and Shirly and Thelma and Louise. There is a new duo in town, Lisa Lavagetto and Julie Steinfield… If you enjoy cooking and enjoy the results you need to know Chef Lisa and Chef Julie. My wife and I have taken numerous cooking classes (and enjoyed subsequent feasts) from Lisa and Julie. They are organized, informative, clean and educational. The hands-on classes gave us the skills and confidence to create great meals at home. If we are having a party to cater, Chef Lisa and Chef Julie would be our first call. They are a well (olive) oiled machine in the kitchen…”
“Lisa is an amazing chef who is so accommodating and fabulous at pairing her food with wine. She has cooked at our wine tasting events for many years and we get rave reviews on the food from our guests continuously. On top of all of that, Lisa is so nice and great to work with!”
Dear Julie, A brief thank you for the wonderful meal you prepared for our dinner party. Having the freedom to get out of the kitchen to be with our guests was wonderful. Being able to savor the fantastic food you prepared was an even bigger treat! Our guests were full of compliments.
