"We had the absolute pleasure of having Chef Zé host a cookery class at our engagement party, and it was truly unforgettable. He guided us through the preparation of a traditional Portuguese cataplana with such passion, knowledge, and charm that everyone felt involved and inspired. Not only did Chef Zé teach us the secrets behind this iconic dish, but he also created a fun, relaxed atmosphere that made the whole experience so special.
Our guests are still talking about the delicious flavors, the laughter in the kitchen, and how unique it was to share such a hands-on celebration. Chef Zé turned a beautiful Portuguese tradition into a memory we’ll treasure forever. We couldn’t recommend him more highly for anyone looking to add authenticity, flavor, and joy to their occasion."
