I first cooked with Diane in 2013 for a team building event and had an incredible time shopping at the market for our ingredients, meeting the vendors, then heading back to Diane’s beautiful kitchen to prepare our lunch. Fast forward 9 years (!!), and I had the privilege of cooking with Diane again. To celebrate my husband’s birthday, I contacted Diane to host a cooking class for us and 6 friends. It was outstanding! Diane is funny, feisty, passionate and extremely knowledgeable about food. You will certainly leave having learned something new!
