Creator's Key Takeaways

I really had a good time great foodie experience as you know I'm a big foodie it is a lot of fun a lot of food

the chef is going to come out and interact with you and in our videos and and the different shots we have we didn't really capture that amazing part of the experience

one of the better Seafood bis I've ever had

it was a lot of fun yeah and you know um one of the other joys of the chef's table is you get to meet all these wonderful people
