WHAT YOU’LL DO
During this hands-on cooking class, Chef Andy will guide you in preparing Chinese takeout meals with a vegan twist. You'll also learn cooking techniques that can be used in a variety of recipes.
Start by folding a mushroom-broccoli mixture into potsticker wrappers, which you'll cook and pair with ponzu sauce. For the main course, Chef Andy will teach you how to make orange tofu topped with simmered scallions and served with white rice. And for dessert, you'll make golden fried Chinese sesame seed balls filled with a sweet red bean paste.

5 hours agoChef Andy was fantastic! My wife and I have done a few other cooking classes in more commercial settings, but this was much more enjoyable. We had a small class of about 5 people, so all of us were getting plenty of personal attention and tips, and I've already seen my knife handling skills increase considerably in the two days since we took the class. It's fun, a great environment, he played great music, and we actually learned a ton. We also ended up having a great meal! Everyone got along super well, so we ate our creations together and really bonded as a group. Chef Andy's recipes were amazing, and everyone was raving about their own dishes. The portions were huge, so I actually had enough left over to make a tasty breakfast out of it as well. We did a vegan cooking class that night. I'm not one, but my wife is vegetarian. He taught us a ton about nutrition and the benefits of plant based diets, but was in no way preachy or judgemental to those of us who weren't practicing vegans/vegetarians. He created a welcoming, warm, and fun environment for us all to learn and play in. I can't thank him and his assitant enough for their hospitality. And I haven't even mentioned how accomodating he was, as we had to reschedule TWICE after we had a whole lot of life hit us and make it so we couldn't keep our first appointments. He was just like, "No big, that happens. Here's my next few availabilities." If we take more Cozymeal classes in the future, I'm checking out Chef Andy's page first. He seems to have a great head on his shoulders, and I have a feeling he'll be a big shot chef in the not so distant future. You should definitely sign up for a class with him before he gets too big. Thanks again to you both, and good luck in future endeavors!

Booked the event Making Pizza by Hand with Chef Andy in Chicago (Chicago Loop)
I was in Chicago for a conference and as a sales rep I am usually asked to host business dinners which can be boring and lame at times. Instead, I invited a bunch of prospects and clients to a cooking class with Chef Andy and he was INCREDIBLE! We had a wide range of abilities in the class and he did a great job of breaking up everyone into teams so that those with less skills could still feel included. The venue was beautiful, the food was delicious, and all of my prospects and clients literally said this was "the best conference sidebar event they had ever been to." I was ecstatic with the experience!

Booked the class Mexican Kitchen with Chef Andy in Evanston
Five stars is not enough. Chef Andy and Chef Coco gave us a wonderful experience from start to finish. They came to our home and taught us how to prepare an absolutely amazing Mexican meal, and everything about the evening exceeded our expectations. They were warm, friendly, very instructive and fund. They made the cooking process feel approachable, fun, and memorable. What really stood out was how they combined great teaching with genuine friendless and a desire to teach. We learned a lot, ate an incredible meal, and truly enjoyed having them in our home. Remarkably, they even left our kitchen cleaner than it was when they arrived. I would highly recommend Chef Andy and Chef Coco to anyone looking for a special, delicious, and well-run private cooking experience.

We had a wonderful experience hiring Chef Andy and his sous chef Coco for a private dinner in our home. The meal was absolutely fantastic- beautifully presented and delicious from start to finish. Andy and Coco were professional, organized, and made the entire evening feel effortless and fun. They handled everything seamlessly and even left the kitchen spotless. It truly felt like having a fine dining restaurant experience in our own home. Highly recommend Chef Andy and Coco if you're looking for a memorable private chef experience!

Chef Andy and this class were amazing. We learned really useful knife skills and received great instruction on how to roll sushi. To add, the end-product was amazing, and we will certainly be trying this out ourselves. He is a great person and made the class a blast.

Booked the class Sushi Adventures with Chef Andy in Chicago (Lower West Side)
Date night with my boyfriend and Chef Cocoa was a lovely experience. I gifted him this Cozymeal sushi class, and we had so much fun prepping and rolling sushi. It turned into a very filling dinner — we even had to take some to go. The class was well organized and easy to follow, with a great group of people. The ambiance at Chef Andy’s place was great, plus easy parking. Overall, a great experience. Highly recommend :)
