We cooked: -Ghate Garam -Red Lentil Soup With mire poix, bay leaves, chicken broth and cilantro -Chicken Tikka Masala and Basmati Rice Pilaf With tomatoes, yogurt and spices -Mango Rice Pudding With milk, sugar and essences Chef Avi was excellent. He gave us a lot of information about knifes and cutting techniques, we learned about new vegetables that we didnâ€™t know and had the chance to taste them. We also learned a lot about how to select vegetables and difference that we didnâ€™t know (like the sex of peppers

Chef Avi provided an absolutely delightful culinary experience. Extremely knowledgeable on many different cooking techniques from different cultures and was very friendly and communicable. Showed us many new tips and tricks in the kitchen and never hesitated to make the best use of a learning opportunity. Chef Avi came prepared and shared with us his experiences as a chef and business owner. He was very flexible in working with people with varying culinary skills, and was able to adapt the recipes to individualized palates. He is a 5/5 recommendation for someone looking to try Cozymeal's services and is a great representation of a professional and passionate chef.

Chef Avi was personable and a well of knowledge - he taught is a tonne or little tricks to improve the way we cook at home and provided a hands-on lesson in knife skills. The 4 course Indian meal was delicious and the entire experience was first rate. We would definitely do another event with Chef Avi!

I had cooked the Rustic french dinner with Chef Avi and it was so delicious; one of the tastiest chicken dishes i've ever had. Chef Avi was excellent, providing tips along the way as my cooking skills are beginner at best. He went out of his way to give tips about cooking in general and ways to eat healthier. Chef Avi was flexible in the method of the class, allowing us to decide how involved we wanted to be. I would recommend a class with Chef Avi to anyone looking to enjoy a few hours of cooking and great conversation. :)

Chef Avi was amazing. He was so patient with us, encouraged us all to interact, and we all left having learned so much. And the meal was outstanding. He really made it fun!

Booked the class Rustic French Dinner with Chef Avi

Great knowledge, very friendly. portion was amazing and we were so grateful for the extra food. Good value for money. It would have been nice to be more a part of the cooking as I did indicate that I would like to learn knife techniques and such. I only peeled a carrot. Appointment/event went 2.5 hours overtime and this was a struggle. We never eat that late and it inhibited my enjoyment of the meal. I could hardly eat anything due to usually being in bed before 9:30. I usually do tip but I needed to pay extra for the travel to Limoges. This is the only reason I did not tip.

I booked Avi as a surprise for my wifeâ€™s birthday and wow - he delivered! Not only was Avi a great conversationalist on a wide range of topics, he is incredibly knowledgeable about unique spices and ingredients that make a dish sing! He also is health conscious and provided valuable advice for places to buy high quality ingredients at bargain prices. We spent a lot of time laughing and my wife said it was was the best birthday surprise ever! #winning
