Chef Jess was great. She was engaging, kind, and patient. It was my first time doing any cooking class and I will definitely be coming back to take another class with her.

*This review has nothing to do with the Chef Charles.* Our lesson was canceled today. We had called ahead that morning and had been told that the class was still going to happen, despite the weather etc. We drove all the way out to it on a Sunday morning and had not been contacted by anyone at Cozymeal that our lesson was canceled because of technological difficulties they were having that were confusing they tried to explain to us. They said they had connectivity issues and electricity issues. This was a Christmas present to my husband and it was terribly disappointing that they canceled and did not offer to reschedule. We were supposedly given a refund. Will not rebook.

Class is good for beginners. Ramen noodles were good. Eggs were inconsistent. Mine was undercooked and my partners was hard boiled. Instructions were a bit fast. Final product tasted fine but we did not do our own broths. We also did not get instructor that we signed up for. A bit disappointing in the end.

The chef was nice but I didn’t feel like I learned how to use the knife properly. I did not receive much feedback and had no idea if I was learning anything. I did get to practice using a nice sharp knife but not sure the skills are transferable to my home kitchen.
