Catalina was nice enough, but I had concerns about the meal and cleanliness of the kitchen. The paella ingredients were not fresh and were overcooked. The oil used to cook the croquettes looked and smelled as though it had been used several times. The kitchen and cooking utensils were not clean. The stove and hood were quite dirty. Counters were not clean either. I will not be booking with Cozymeal again. Truly a disappointing experience.

Very friendly environment and very knowledgeable chef! Was a little less hands on than I expected, but I understand you can't have 10 people working on the same stove. Very great class for someone wanting to learn basics of cooking and some fundamentals of French cuisine.

Highly recommend: My girlfriend and I don't often do cooking classes, and I'm kitchen illiterate. Chef Catalina and her curated experience was helpful for both beginners and seasoned kitchen folk. Arriving in her home, I wasn't sure what to expect but her kitchen had everything you'd want for this experience while having a homey and hospitable vibe to boot. After folks settled in, she was warm, approachable and open to questions (specific or general) about her craft and improving our own. We opted for the French cuisine and were not disappointed. This experience is perfect for a date night, getting out, or just doing something different from the routine. Thanks chef!

Wow! Chef Catalina planned an amazing evening. She is a true professional, a great host and teacher and loves what she does. My party of two was part of an 8 person group. We did not previously know one another but we quickly formed into a team working together in the beautiful and well-equipped kitchen, prepping all of the ingredients and then cooking several courses. The Spanish menu, with paella as the main course, was wonderful and we enjoyed our meal family style at the dining room table. I learned some new-to-me knife techniques and some tips on sourcing some of the ingredients we used. I look forward to getting the recipes so I can recreate some of the dishes at home, especially the potato croquettes with red pepper ailoi and the paella of course! I would recommend this for couples, singles, families or a group of friends.

Ditch the stuffy kitchens and impersonal chefs! Our French culinary adventure unfolded in Catalina's warm kitchen, filled with the aroma of coq au vin, ratatouille and so much more. The menu was a delicious trip through the French classics, but the real magic was Catalina's contagious passion. Her knowledge flowed effortlessly, transforming each step into a fun, shared experience. We laughed, cooked, and finally gathered around the table to savor the fruits of our labor. It was more than a class; it was a magical evening. Highly recommend Chef Catalina!

Chef Catalina is amazing! She is a gracious host and excellent chef. We signed up for the Mexican Street food class. Our family has a wide age range (grandparents, adult kids and teenage/young adult grandchildren) and food allergies. Chef Catalina showed us how to make adjustments and prepare a fabulous meal. Everyone left full and happy. We canвЂ™t wait to try other cuisines with Chef Catalina!

Homemade fettuccine, fantastic Fritto Misto with Lemon Aioli and assorted veggies, lovely salad, and the Best Tiramisu I've ever tasted. Thank you Chef. Oh! And don't forget to pet Remy!

Chef Catalina's class was exceptional in every way. Her kitchen was clean, inviting, cozy; everything was preprepped and laid out with plenty of room for all 10 of us. She taught us all as one and split us into groups that she rotated so we all had hands on experience in all stages of our meal. She was very conscious of knife/hot oil/cooking safety for us and cleanliness. The food was wonderful and she sends the recipes to your email so you can just enjoy the experience of the class. We all sat down at the table after cooking was done and enjoyed the lovely meal we all helped prep. My husband and I would do a class with her again! :)

Chef Catalina blew me away!! She opens her GORGEOUS home to groups, and provides a fun, clean and educational environment to learn! My husband and I just attended her Italian cuisine cooking class, and were paired up with 2 other couples. Chef Catalina made sure there was something for everyone to do at all times, whether it is whisking up whipped cream, making homemade pasta, or hand-mashing roasted tomatoes. She created a "dinner party" environment where each member of the class got to sit around the kitchen table and enjoy the meal that we all cooked together. I definitely plan on taking one of her many other classes, and would HIGHLY recommend this experience to others as well. Seriously, this was one of the most fun experiences, and is perfect as a birthday gift, date night, or really any occasion. Thank you , Chef Catalina for such a wonderful experience!!

We arrived at a beautiful house not knowing what to expect. We were met at the door by Chef Catalina and immediately welcomed in. Her kitchen and dining space are perfectly setup to accommodate small and large groups. Chef walked us through the menu and got us setup and we began. Throughout the whole process she talked about the various ingredients being used, and took the time to answer any questions we had and made making the experience very enjoyable. Overall, a wonderful experience guided by Catalina, and the food at the end was delicious. Highly recommend any cooking/dining class with Chef Catalina.

My partner and I found Chef Catalina's class for Thai and neither of us has ever cooked Thai. We both are somewhat experienced cooks in other kinds of food, so we had a lot of fun learning what all goes into Thai cooking. Chef Catalina makes it easy to follow along, and the food was amazing. Plus, we had a ton of leftovers.

Very fun class! I love cooking and wanted to learn more recipes or kinds of meals to makeвЂ”and this class was worth trying. Thai Curry is a dish I love. I usually either make Japanese, or red and yellow Thai CurryвЂ”and was hoping to learn how to make green Thai Curry since IвЂ™ve never had or cooked it before. The green curry we made was deliciousвЂ”IвЂ™ll totally add it to my list of recipes to make for dinner :) The mango sticky rice was delicious too. Very rich and hearty dessert! Loved it! Thank you, Catalina for the lovely class. I will definitely sign up for another cooking class in the future :)

Our experience with Chef Catalina was incredible! We got to understand, sniff, and taste many of the unique ingredients in a Thai cuisine before they became part of our curry or pad thai.

Cooking with Catalina is not only educational, but such a pleasure. From the moment we started she made us feel comfortable. Her home is so welcoming and set the tone for a more personal experience instead of a standard cooking class. The ingredients provided were local and fresh, and she let us know where to get items that may be harder to find. Catalina walks you through each recipe and demonstrates techniques or processes while still letting you be the one to cook. She really takes the time to help you learn about why certain ingredients are used, and the intentionality behind why flavors go together. The entire menu was easy to learn and well thought out, which made for a well-rounded meal IвЂ™d love to try again. I canвЂ™t wait for another class!

We had so much fun! Almost felt like an interactive dinner party, more than a class. Italian is my favorite, and Chef Catalina didnвЂ™t disappoint. The food was delicious! And though I know it wonвЂ™t be as good as hers, sheвЂ™s given me the confidence to try this again on my own. I can honestly say, she exceeded all my expectations. And IвЂ™m looking forward to trying her Thai class next. Thank you, Chef!
