We had a fantastic cooking class with Matteo! He was very communicative and tailored the menu to our preferences. We left with plenty of leftovers and recipes I will definitely make again.

We did the cooking class at the beginning of our trip to Tamarindo, which was great because Matteo gave us plenty of recommendations for places to eat and things to do during our time here. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Tamarindo!

Words cannot even explain how happy I was with this experience and Matteo he was extremely accommodating great communicator and he was able to come through on a very last minute booking he put together an incredible vegan Birthday Dinner for my mom who’s an extremely tough critic and a Leo might I add and she loved it it’s hard to find good vegan food or restaurants for her and I’m happy we found Matteo I’m not even vegan and I enjoyed the food just as much and I was full ! I cannot thank him enough we loveddddd it !

Chef Matteo and Anthony were lovely and created a menu to satisfy all of us and our children. It was wonderful to have a healthy, chic, locally sourced and beautiful home-cooked meal on New Year's Eve. The experience was fantastic, the food was delicious, and Matteo even helped us with booking some other local excursions. We are SO happy we did and so very highly recommend!!

I messaged Matteo after I had searched for a chef experience for our AirBnB that was inclusive of my wife as she's vegetarian, and everyone gave us a great Tico menu for the party members that are meat, but the vegetarian options were abysmal, and I was left wondering how I could cook and go celebrate my wife's birthday while having a special meal.

Matteo to the rescue!
he gave us Numerous menu options that all sounded incredible, we went with the tico inspired experience.

Everything was plates with exceptional style and looked packed full of flavor.

There was so much talk of this is my fav, okay, this one, no wait. We all had our expectations met and bested.

Matteo's lime crema made with cashew milk was such an analog for proper creme freche but better.

I really cannot speak highly enough of Matteo, his conversational friendliness was awesome, everyone had a nice bonding moment, his hosting was perfect.

COMMUNICATION! Such a lost art, he responded fast, and checked every single box above and beyond what I was looking for.
He gave us an experience we won't forget, and it was the perfect end to my wife's birthday.

Thanks Again,
Eric
