Lisa,

I wanted to thank you so much for the entertaining and informative class you taught on Saturday. I really enjoyed myself, learned a bunch, even stuff that had nothing to do with sauces! Your personality is electric and so inspiring and encouraging. Keep up the good work you do and soon you will be on Good Morning America! Best of luck to you and your business

As a retired Executive Chef / Culinary Arts Teacher (of almost 40 years), , I wanted to take a moment to tell you how much we enjoy your articles in Jewish Life. (I find it) sic important at this stage in my life to give that "pat on the back" for a job well done.

Your articles are entertaining, informative, and obviously well prepared by someone who loves what they do as much as I.

Thank you for your articles, and may I wish you continued success in the industry, and with your lovely family as well.

Respectfully,

Steven D. Levin aka....Cheflev

Lisa,
Sally and I were so so happy to have spent time on Saturday with you and truly enjoyed hearing and tasting the passions you have for food! (that eggplant!!...ahh!!) We just wanted you to know how special you made our evening, and we look forward to any opportunity to share LIsa Glickman at our family table in the future!! Here's to a peaceful and prosperous 2012!

PS. I'm emailing our friends too!! Private chefs like you are one of a kind!!

"Someone who cooks with passion can spawn something far superior than someone who may be educated and skilled in the culinary arts, but is just going through the motions.

And every so often I come across someone whose cuisine is imbued with that passion, that devotion, that intoxication with food. Her name is Lisa Glickman.

I'll never forget the first time I tasted her food. It rocked my world.

I left the party that evening with a swing in my step, taste buds that would dance the conga for hours to come, and the certain knowledge that I would worship Lisa's talent for a long time. Ok - make that 'all eternity.'"

"I asked Lisa to put together a very special brunch over the holidays. She had just moved to Central Oregon, so she wasn't well known, but I had a gut feeling that she would be very good. Well…Lisa put together a delectable spread…every bite was fantastic. And, she was a pleasure to deal with before and after the event."

"Lisa's ideas were great and her execution was seamless. This is not to mention the amazing food—a year later, I am still getting compliments on the lobster rolls and pulled pork sandwiches."

Shelly Ward, Wellesley, MA

"With many chefs, it's often 'my way or the highway.' Not with Lisa. She is incredibly versatile and is full of imagination. Lisa's best quality is Lisa. No pretentions, no attitude and no hassles."

Heidi Chames, Wilsonville, OR

"Lisa is the ultimate entertainer. From Chicken Pot Pie to a Mediterranean feast, the food is always fantastic.

Her meals radiate pure joy."

Gigi Van Rysellbergh, Portland, OR

"I left Lisa's party with a swing in my step, taste buds that would dance the conga for hours to come and the certain knowledge that I would worship Lisa's talent"

Simon Paddock, Bend, Oregon

"From the first phone call, I found Lisa a joy to work with. She is creative, responsive and totally reliable. My husband and I love great food and found Lisa to be very sophisticated in her approach. And, Lisa is on top of what is currently in the market, and capitalizes on it. Lisa and her staff are so good at what they do that I feel like a guest at my own party."
