Mario is a very proud and fun Spaniard, yet born and raised in Paris. Family man he is, he learned to cook the Valencian paella to perfection; we have never experienced anything like it, the knowledge, flavors, simplicity and relaxed air with which he cooks are just pure elegance. Amazing meal and such fun conversation. Would highly recommend to anyone.

It truly was a “cozy meal” in the comfort of Chef Mario’s home. Felt the menu was delicious and authentic Valencia’s cuisine. I signed up for this to do something different for my boyfriend’s birthday and he is not a cook by any means. It was great to cook together and have him learn some easy cooking tips. I think I would maybe make a different appetizer since the potatoe salad with paella was really heavy. The paella was the best I’ve EVER had. I enjoyed the crepe dessert which I think was my dates favorite. Chef Mario was accommodating, professional and engaging. Overall fantastic evening and would recommend to anyone. Heading to Italy and BF is setting up a cooking class in Rome. I think he has the cooking “bug”

Chef Mario was awesome. Explained the techniques well and made the evening a very fun and educational experience. I am a non-cook and totally enjoyed the evening. The salad, paella and crepes tasted amazing. I highly recommend Chef Mario and the paella experience
