"ANYBODY CAN MAKE YOU ENJOY THE FIRST BITE OF A DISH, BUT
ONLY A REAL CHEF CAN MAKE YOU ENJOY THE LAST."
-- FRANCOIS MINOT

Andy has been teaching people to cook since 1998.
AndyFood opened in 2003.


Our recipes are developed, adapted, and taught with an emphasis on cooking technique and flavor. At AndyFood fresh ingredients, food presentation, and sitting down to eat the lesson du jour are always part of the good meal as art.
