Unimaginable to have more seamless evening of kitchen play, exquisite food, with a more knowledgeable, witty, kind-hearted and beautiful mentor. Thank you Chef Ted. You're a delight.

We had a blast cooking with Chef Ted Fondulas. We learned new techniques, plated a beautiful French meal and it all tasted heavenly. It was such a unique learning experience to have a professional chef watching details like the sauce simmering, or the potatoes browning, advising exactly what was needed. I can’t wait to do it again!

For my mother's birthday my sister and I booked the Chowder and Scallop cakes class with Chef Ted. We had a fantastic time! I haven't had that much fun in the kitchen (while working with others) in a long time. Not only was Chef Ted engaging and entertaining, he took the time to really teach valuable cooking skills. Skills far beyond what is just necessary for the dishes we made together. I will be looking forward to learning (and eating!) more from The Chef and The Dish.

We have never done a cooking class before but it was informative and we learned
things we could take home. All the food was fresh, crazy fresh, and delicious. We would
definitely take another class.

My sister and I loved working with Chef Ted to cook Cioppino! He delivered high quality instruction, shared personal tips, and made the entire experience fun and stress-free. We love seafood cuisine but prior to the class have not had experience cooking it. If you like seafood, have experience or not cooking it, and want to work with a great guy, take Chef Ted’s class!

I feel like I walked out knowing so much more than I knew prior. Ted was so funny and
so friendly, not to mention very professional. Absolutely loved everything about the
class, especially including the sticky toffee pudding. I'd absolutely recommend to
anyone looking to improve their cooking expertise or to just have fun!

My husband and I had such a great time! He’s definitely the cook in the family and even
I was able to get into it and learn a few things! Ted is very knowledgeable and a great
teacher. He makes you feel very a part of the process and equips you to make these
dishes on your own at home.

Wonderful experience. We were looking for a unique experience and found it. Brought
our 3 kids who participated in the cooking, and they loved it. We made a wonderful
stuffed chicken and devoured every morsel.
