About
Personalized teaching.
I enjoy the reaction students have when they realize they've achieved proficiency in something they've previously were intimidated to try and cook.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We probe to find out
- what the student wants to learn.
- what food likes and dislikes they have.
- how often do they cook and what they cook
From this information we customize a class for the student.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm self taught and have been a chef for 18 years.
I'm currently the "Best Of Brandon" 2020 and have been for the last 9 consecutive years.
I taught hundreds of students.
In the 5 years on Groupons and Living Social I held a 100% Satisfaction Rating.
I am an Cookbook author of Cook - Eat - Mingle!
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
The price is usually $100.00 per person from my standard menu class.
How did you get started teaching?
While executing Personal Chef Services, clients stated they wished they could cook this well. So I created a class based on what they wanted to learn.
What types of students have you worked with?
I've taught couples, groups, and one on one from all age groups and all experience levels from novice home cooks to professional chefs.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Recently, I was hired to teach the Cook - Eat - Mingle class as a gift for a 34 Anniversary present. And as if this wasn't enough of an honor, it was for a retired Air Force Veteran. What an honor.
This was the review:
It was a pleasure to experience a Hats Off To Dining Class to celebrate our anniversary. It was a gift from our children and we did not know what to expect. The food was amazing. My husband and I enjoyed the experience, in which we not only indulged in a variety of dishes, but also assisted in the preparation. Chef Anthony and his team were professional, we learned some great tips, and his sauces were divine!
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Everyone is capable of cooking great meals. Just have patience in the learning process.
Virtually every student has raved about how good the food was and I have to remind them that they prepared it.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Students should think about:
- what foods they don't like and why.
- what type of food intimidates them to cook and why
