We learned how to make pasta, triamasuri, and a chicken Marsala. It was a great experience that I would highly recommend. The best part we got to eat everything! We also had a nice salad. Chef Vivek was very good and patient explaining everything.

My wife and I signed up for "Italian Classics and Tiramisu" with Chef Vivek at his place. He was super pleasant and very welcoming. He was extremely professional and taught us a lot, even about the history behind the dishes. We had a lot of fun and the food was amazing. Words cannot describe how great the food was. We will be taking more classes with Chef Vivek and highly recommend him for your own experience!

I had an amazing experience with my CozyMeal chef Vivek! The Mediterranean dishes were absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. Every detail was thoughtfully prepared, and you could truly tell the chef is passionate about their craft. Not only was the food incredible, but the entire experience felt warm, welcoming, and professional. I would highly recommend this chef to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable Mediterranean dining experience. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience!
