“Petra planned a fantastic barbecue/cooking class for a dinner party in my home. The menu was wonderful and her instruction was so much fun. Everyone had a great time. Petra even took me shopping for both food and fun things for my dinner table. This was a great experience for me and Petra was the reason! I would definitely do it again.”
