Last night myself and my wife, Patti attended a class with Chef David in Philadelphia at his house. It was truly a great class and Chef David was outstanding. We were in a group of six people total and he kept us busy while really teaching us some great Italian style cooking. We all enjoyed the fruits of our labor as we sat down and ate together and Chef David made it seem that we all knew each other for a long time. The class flew by but we left knowing we learned so much that we will use at our kitchen in the near future. Well done, Chef David!!

I can't even begin to explain how worth it this class truly is! Not only is Chef David very knowledgeable and helpful, but he is also very inviting and charismatic; it felt like we were just hanging out with an old friend. His workspace is both warm and professional, and he makes sure that every person in the class is engaged and learning. The food was among the best I've ever had, and gave me a new appreciation for simple, homemade meals. I will definitely be booking another class and/or private party in the future!

My husband and I have never been to a cooking class. This was an incredible first experience! The recipes David taught us are recipes we believe that we could recreate! His own personal experiences and family history really made the experience special. There was so much food to eat, so go hungry! And you get to take leftovers home! I can’t wait to try out these recipes at home!

Chef David was incredibly personable and immediately made us feel comfortable in his kitchen. He was very knowledgeable and provided supportive feedback throughout the whole cooking process.
As a couple with limited experience with pasta making, his breakdown of technique, food culture and culinary science really provided a fully immersive experience. Chef David’s vibrant international background brought a level of authenticity that most foodies would be hard pressed to find in even their most favorite local spots.
As this was our first time trying this service, we can not recommend it and Chef David enough.

I brought a friend with me to learn how to make pasta with sauce and gnocchi over brown butter with Chef David last week. We had an amazing time while learning SO MUCH about the process of making pasta! When it came time to eating the pasta & gnocchi we truly savored and loved every bite! Chef David is such a natural Chef that it truly shows how much he enjoys all aspects of creating so many different foods! I highly recommend taking a class with him to anyone who wants to learn about making pasta as well as an amazing pasta sauce! For the last 25 years, I thought I was making a pretty good sauce but I NOW will be using new tips that Chef David taught us! THANK YOU, Chef David for being such a great teacher!

I was skeptical of this experience at first, concerned about the quality if the class and also the flow of it. But I am beyond glad I booked it anyway! Chef David brings more to the table than just the actual cooking (which was gourmet and delicious) and the teaching. He shares his knowledge, stories and experiences that liven the conversation and also provide more color to dish we are making and thoroughly enjoying. My fiance and I both agreed the entire experience was so much better than dining at a 'fancy' restaurant and we got to take home all the yummy leftovers! Thanks Chef David, see you again soon!

I bought a cooking lesson through Cozymeal with Chef David to have a special date night for our one year wedding anniversary. I was a little nervous about how it would go, as we've never done anything like this before. Chef David made our night AMAZING and one to remember :) He was welcoming, engaging, and a ton of fun. The food turned out better than I could have imagined, and Chef David walked you through each step. He has a true passion for cooking and good food, and it really showed! We wound up with a ton of left overs that we brought home and enjoyed for the rest of the week (and we still have some fresh pasta in the freezer!). I learned so much during our lesson, and we had such a great time!! At the end of the night, David invited us to finish our wine that we brought out on his back patio, and enjoyed hanging out! Overall, this experience was a true 5-stars and I would highly recommend it as either a date night or a girls night out!

I booked the Sicilian Fusion Night with Chef David for my boyfriend's birthday to do something different and the experience was absolutely fantastic!! I highly recommend this experience with Chef David for anyone who enjoys eating great food and learning about the food they are eating as well! The food was delicious and learning how to make pasta from scratch is something we will continue to do on our own. Chef David was very easy to talk to and had great stories about his experiences as a chef! In addition, Chef David was very accommodating to our dietary restrictions. My boyfriend can't eat seeds and Chef David adjusted the meal as needed without any hesitations, which made the experience even more enjoyable. My boyfriend has been telling everyone about the experience and has said that this was his favorite birthday yet! It's safe to say we will absolutely be coming back to work with Chef David again!

It was honestly such a pleasure to meet and learn from Chef David tonight. Not only are his credentials top notch, but his attitude, personability, and passion for his art are contagious. We could not have even imagined it would be such an amazing experience, and so comfortable. Highly recommend to anyone anytime.

My girlfriend and I were looking for a nice evening to celebrate our anniversary and Cozy Meal gave us just that. Dave is an excellent chef and teacher! While guiding us through different cooking techniques he also gave his fun insights on the history of Italian cuisine, from his perspective, as well as the insider scoop on what goes on in the kitchen of restaurants. He let us add our own touch to the meal and was super patient and encouraging. We’ve developed a whole new appreciation for culinary art and had a blast getting our hands dirty to make a delicious meal. Thank you Dave for a memorable experience and tons of leftovers ;)

Drawing from his training and experience cooking in Italy, France and the US, Chef David is a wealth of knowledge. His passion for food shines through his warm, engaging personality and delicious flavors. His combinations of simple, fresh ingredients are truly exquisite. Chef David really enjoys teaching people about his food and techniques and makes seemingly complicated things easy to understand. After cooking with Chef David you will leave wonderfully full and with the knowledge to recreate his delicious food at home."

This was my first time taking a cooking class so I didn’t really what to expect. Upon arrival to his house, Chef David was very welcoming and hospitable. He quickly evaluated my skill level and after conversation over a glass of wine we started on our Beef Roulade. Chef David knew the history behind the dish and everything. While I was learning how to cook this classic European entree, Chef David was showing me various techniques and sharing a lot of different knowledge that I can attribute to every day cooking. After about 1 hours of prep and cook we were enjoying this delicious beef roll and string beans complimented with a red wine sauce. Overall an excellent experience. Chef David’s education and experience really shows on the plate. He also has a knack for teaching. I can’t wait to cook this dish for family and friends. I definitely recommend this guy!

This was the perfect private chef experience for my fiancée and I. Chef David made our mouths water with sweet anticipation as he artfully prepared the 3 courses. The rombi alla Norma was outstanding!

It was my first time using this and we were (husband and I) very surprised. Chef David prepared us some homemade pasta. Excellent and tasted phenomenal. His house was welcoming and made us feel comfortable right away!

I have never been to a cooking class before. Especially skeptical about going to someone’s house. BUT I WAS BLOWN AWAY. The house is kept up super clean and the whole amtmosphere at CHEF David’s House was amazing. We thought we were going to cook only what was on the menu but we the extra time we had he managed to prepare us something else which was amazing. I definitely recommend CHEF David for cooking classes and we will definitely take his couple class soon.

I throughly enjoyed my meal that I had with David. He explained and planned everything in such great detail, especially for someone like me that doesn't cook. The pasta was amazing, along with everything else. His house was very comfortable. He is a true professional and amazing at his craft! 5 stars all around!
