WHAT YOU’LL DO
Come see how easy it is to recreate a Mexican feast in your own home!
In this hands-on cooking class with Chef Rebecca, you'll learn how to make a few Mexican street food dishes packed with exciting ingredients and authentic flavor.
You'll start by hand-frying your own crispy taco shells and then filling them with beef, potatoes and all the toppings your heart desires, including a zesty avocado cream. On the side, you'll prepare and enjoy cilantro lime rice and frijoles borrachos, otherwise known as "drunken" beans. End the meal with classic sopapillas — crispy, puffed tortillas with cinnamon and honey. Buen provecho!
Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

We made beef and papa's tacos with an elote corn salad and cilantro lime rice and finishing the evening with sopapillas. Wonderful instruction, adapting to our skill set and praising my younger son (13), who is unsure of his abilities in the kitchen. Overall, an amazing experience!

We had the best time cooking with Chef Rebecca! She was so knowledgeable and patient and helped us cook an incredible meal! She was amazing.

Chef Rebecca was wonderful! She made our whole family feel a part of the cooking class and taught my two teenagers some excellent cooking skills. Her recipes were easy to follow, and the food we cooked was delicious. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fun family activity in the kitchen.

Rebecca was absolutely great! We had so much fun with her and learning her Dani’ family’s recipe. Although our group loves to cook on our own, we all picked up some helpful tips to add to our cooking skills bank. Highly recommend Rebecca and would love to take another class with her again!

While the chef is very friendly and has a nice home, that is not exactly what I expected nor paid for.
I did not make all that is mentioned in the advertisement. My husband and I made guacamole, beef and potatoes, the tortillas for the tacos, and was shown how to make the cinnamon sopapilla's. We did not make cilantro lime rice, avocado crema, nor frijoles borrachos. The event duration was about an hour. Do you typically make only certain parts? If so that should be mentioned when paying. I feel ripped off.
Also, the pictures of the food shown in the gallery for the Classic Mexican Street food depict a tortilla being made in a tortilla press, but we fried tortilla's from the store. That is very misleading. There was no "avocado crema" served with the tacos, just the guacamole we made so they were very dry and untasty. The cinnamon honey sopapilla's did not have honey as shown in the gallery as well. The chef fried the tortilla chips and shook them with sugar and cinnamon, no honey drizzle. I'm very confused as to how a menu can be shown that isn't followed.
This class is for people who REALLY can't cook, like at all. Save your money and watcha YouTube video.

My boyfriend and I enjoyed our experience with Rebecca. The meal was delicious, yet simple enough that we can recreate it ourselves at home. Her home kitchen was the perfect size and we appreciated her straightforward direction and friendliness.

Chef Rebecca was extremely professional and friendly, making our Cozymeal experience feel one-of-a-kind. She arrived on time and immediately set herself up in our tiny kitchen, explaining to me what she was planning. We had several people over and she made it feel like a truly deluxe offering, bringing out immaculately plated dish after dish, describing what they were, and sharing jokes with guests. We couldn't recommend a chef more highly! Such a lovely night!

Chef Rebecca was great! She was very communicative (asking about food allergies and being open to cooking at our place or hers), inviting (we cooked at her place), and friendly. Her recipes were educational (how to make regional Italian dishes), interesting (we could personalize our own flatbread pizzas), and delicious. I would definitely consider taking another class from her in the future and highly recommend her to others considering doing a Cozymeal cooking class.
