Private Chefs in Cincinnati

Amazing instruction! I felt that I could ask questions at any time and not feel dumb for asking them. Chef Rebecca was very knowledgeable and funny! Would definitely have a class with them again

The food was dry and Kate had done great cooking tips

I already tipped our guide.

Love the class and learn a lot of new cooking techniques

We worked with Rebecca and she was awesome! We had a great time. Rebecca taught us kitchen tricks and cooking techniques. We loved her sense of humor. We felt comfortable and welcome. We will definitely be taking more classes with Rebecca!

Rebecca was a ton of fun and the food was absolutely delicious. It was my son’s birthday gift and we had a great time!

Had a very good time and learned a lot. Very well organized and the instructor was very good and patient, If there is a negative, it was that there were 3 in our group and I thought it would be couples.

Chef Gary was amazing. Very patient and knowledgeable.

My friend and I had the pleasure of taking Chef Jamie’s Southern Comfort Food class and we LOVED it. She was patient, prepared and passionate about teaching our class. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking to learn how to make amazing food!!!

We did this for a date night (A Night In Paris) and loved it! Chef Jamie helped us to create a delicious 4 course meal. We had a great time and learned several different cooking techniques we had never used before. We have even discussed going back to celebrate my mothers birthday in the spring. Only minor downside was Cozymeal had shown the location as Cincinnati but it was actually in the Lebanon area. It made our drive a little further than we had hoped but it was still worth it. We hope others will enjoy the experience as much as we did because we can't wait to go back to learn more in the spring.

Chef Larry's Bistecca Alla Fiorentina might be the best thing I've ever tasted. He served this "family style," cut into strips on an oversized wooden cutting board with a dollop of homemade butter he made while casually carrying on a conversation. The Seared Day Boat Scallops were vibrant, spicy, and delicious. A nice twist on a traditional seafood dish. His food was bold, elevated, and fun. I would highly recommend Chef Larry for a warm and contemporary experience with food.

Chef Marquita provided a warm and inviting culinary experience. Her appetizer, a crisp and colorful chopped mint salad transitioned beautifully to the bold and flavorful Jamaican curry. Her flavors are bold and complex, yet traditional. I truly felt that Chef Marquita's food comes from the heart.

Chef Jamie provided me with a warm and inviting experience through her food, personality, and her home. As a chef, her food reminds you of the joy of sharing a meal together. I would recommend Chef Jamie to anyone looking for cuisine that balances between comfort and elegance. P.S. Her Triple Layer Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie is unbelievably delicious.

This was definitely an unexpected experience all around. The cooking class is hosted by Sur La Table. About 5 minutes after the class was scheduled to start, all ~16 students were standing outside the room waiting to go in. The chef finally came out with a roster and she actually yelled at people to “hurry up” and get inside. The class continued with some of of that same chaotic energy and a few “unprofessional” comments (“the pans are ribbed for her pleasure”) given the crowd (father/son). The food was tasty, but nothing incredible. My partner and I both felt like we didn’t learn anything new, but enjoyed our time there.

The experience was not at all what was described on Cozymeal's website. Overall Maybe this was my own misunderstanding but Cozymeal lists the experience we booked as Steak Dinner for Two. I expected a fun date night with my wife where we cook something new together, drink some wine, and then enjoy a nice meal. In reality, it's just a cooking class where we cooked and ate I'm groups of 4. The other couple at our table was great, but I wasn't expecting to double-date with strangers. Menu I picked this experience in particular because my wife LOVES steak frites. Cozymeal said we would be making steak, fries with a garlic aioli, and a chocolate lava cake. The only accurate part of that description was the steak. It tasted ok, but only after sitting through a 10 minute sales pitch for the Sous Vide system the chef used. The rest of the menu was good (pear and arugula salad, baked potato, and chocolate mousse) but completely different than promised. Drinks Water was the only beverage provided. If we wanted coffee, we had to go into the store and get a sample from one of the espresso machines they were selling. Summary If you want a cooking class, book directly through Their website is more accurate. If you want a fun date night activity with some quality time with your significant other, use a different service.

The other couple in our class was lovely, but the chef seemed confused about the dish and we didn’t actually cook anything beyond searing some shrimp.

Disappointed to say the least. The entire class felt like I was being rushed which made no sense as we got done over 30 minutes in advance. Everytime I turned around someone was standing there waiting to take items off my bench. We were also told that we could eat the remaining ingredients if we didn’t use them all in the rolls but those all got taken away as well. Why add sushi rice to the menu if we aren’t even going to able to enjoy it? This class was not as it was advertised.
