Great evening with Chef Roddy and his team. The food was great. We had a good blend of helping to cook and also networking with our team. A wonderful night overall. I would highly suggest. We did the Paella cooking class and it was delicious and plenty of food for all 9 of us. Thank you Chef!'

A great experience! Chef Veronica did a great job preparing a tasty dish of blackened catfish with a papaya mango salad. Great conversation about her background, the food scene, and life in general! A fun and unique way to do a birthday!

Booked the class Classic Paella Techniques with Chef Mikki

Chef Mikki was great! He was friendly, adapted for our personal needs and experience levels, and the food turned out delicious. Using the skills we learned in our cooking class, we have even been able to add a yummy paella to our cooking repertoire, and have made it successfully at home! Thank you Chef Mikki for a wonderful experience!

Chef Mikki made us feel right at home. He taught us so much and made the entire experience comfortable. The food was amazing. You will definitely not regret this experience.

Edward S.

Booked the class Classic Paella Techniques with Chef Mikki

We had a great date night at Chef Mikkiâ€™s cooking class. He was accommodating to a gluten allergy we had but everything turned out delicious. He was knowledgeable of all our questions pertaining to the recipe and general cooking questions. He had a great personality as well. I wish the class would have been more hands on.

Madeline W.

Booked the class Mastery of Classic French Skills with Chef Aaron in East Bay (Prescott)

Chef Aaron welcomed us into his home and gave great instruction to my family and other Cozymealers attending the class. He taught us how to cook a delicious four course French meal. This was a phenomenal experience that we will remember for years to come. Iâ€™d highly recommend Aaron.

Daniel S.

Booked the class Classic Thai Cuisine with Chef Aaron in East Bay (Prescott)

It was great to cook with Chef Aaron. He showed us some interesting tricks for cutting, made sure we all got a chance to contribute, and overall made it a great experience.

Aurora M.

Booked the class Mastery of Classic French Skills with Chef Aaron in East Bay (Prescott)

Chef Aaron was so gracious and nice. I am a notoriously bad cook but he gave us tips and let us try techniques without being pretentious or making me feel like the total novice that I am. We did the French cooking class and I definitely think I can replicate at least some of the things we cooked at home now that I have done them once. Highly recommended!

Lorraine B.

Booked the class Dinner Tonight in the Bay Area with Chef Frances and Chef Sasha in East Bay (Northwest Berkeley)

I gave this class as a gift to my daughter-in-law for her 30th Birthday. She loved it! The chefs were great teachers and the food was delicious. What a great gift!

Zak S.

Booked the class Authentic Spanish Tapas with Chef Jordan

Jordan was awesome. He was nice, taught us some great cooking skills, and was fun to be around. We highly recommend him and his Spanish Tapas class.

Colleen H.

Booked the class Donabe: Japanese One Pot Wonder with Chef Evan in East Bay (Downtown Oakland)

My husband, Dan, and I found this Donabe cooking class to be incredible. Chef Evan taught us how to slowly meld the ingredients together patiently to achieve a wonderful blend of flavors. Without using exact measurements, we learned to taste frequently to get the perfect end product. Leftovers that we took home were marvelous the next day. We already gave him a tip to show our appreciation.

Matt B.

Booked the class Donabe: Japanese One Pot Wonder with Chef Evan in East Bay (Downtown Oakland)

My wife and I had a fantastic time with Chef Evan! We had a great meal and learn so much.

Elliot R.

Booked the class Authentic Spanish Tapas with Chef Jordan

What an experience! We loved the Spanish cooking class with Chef Jordan and are already planning to book our next experience!

Yan L.

Booked the class Donabe: Japanese One Pot Wonder with Chef Evan in East Bay (Downtown Oakland)

We drove for three hours on a Sunday for Chef Evan's class. When we arrived, the entrance was locked and we found the rest of the class waiting outside. No one was able to reach Chef Evan, and even Cozymeal was unable to contact him the entire day and day after. After waiting for another half an hour, we finally gave up and left. The chef had been nonresponsive and uncommunicative the entire weeks since we booked - the red flags are obvious in hindsight.

David A.

Booked the class The Mastery of Spanish Fare with Chef Roddy in San Jose (Campbell)

Chef Edie showed us how to make Paella, grilled shrimp with bruschetta. Everything was delicious.

Ashvin P.

Booked the class The Mastery of Spanish Fare with Chef Roddy in San Jose (Campbell)

We had an absolutely incredible experience learning to cook with Chef Roddy and his team. From the moment we arrived, the energy was warm, welcoming, and effortlessly professional. Chef Erick has a true giftâ€”not just for cooking, but for teaching. He breaks things down in a way thatâ€™s engaging, approachable, and genuinely fun, whether youâ€™re a beginner or someone who already loves being in the kitchen. The highlight of the experience was making paellaâ€”and not just any paella, but hands down the best weâ€™ve ever had. Every step, from layering flavors to perfecting the texture of the rice, was thoughtfully guided. You can tell Chef Erick is passionate about his craft, and that passion carries through in every detail. His team was equally fantasticâ€”attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly in sync, which made the whole experience feel seamless and elevated. It never felt rushed, and there was a great balance of hands-on learning, storytelling, and enjoying the process. This wasnâ€™t just a cooking classâ€”it was a memorable culinary experience. We walked away not only with new skills, but with a deeper appreciation for the art of cooking (and a serious craving for paella). Highly, highly recommend Chef Roddy and his teamâ€”you wonâ€™t be disappointed.

Carlee D.

Booked the class Authentic Chinese Fare with Chef Wen in East Bay (Walnut Creek)

Chef Wen and his Sous Chef Jing were absolutely phenomenal. We had the most amazing time learning about traditional Beijing cuisine and all the dishes were out of this world. Chef Wen is so enthusiastic and knowledgable, and he really made the experience extra special. For anyone looking to have a great time with excellent food, Chef Wen is your guy!

Brad B.

Really fun experience and learning experience

Alexandre H.

Booked the class Quintessential Chinese Cooking with Chef Wen

Chef Wen went above and beyond for our meal. We requested some other menu items on a phone call (he prefers phone to email), and he let us think about what we wanted to make/learn. In the end we switched out 2 of the dishes to dry-fried string beans and hot and sour egg drop soup (which was simply incredible). He is skilled at many kinds of Chinese cuisine, including Beijing, Shandong, and Sichuan. He showed us how to make every dish and explained what seasoning to add and how to chop. He made two versions of the dan dan noodles because he knew I didnâ€™t like spicy food as much. He brought cucumbers he had pickled the day before, plus homegrown peppers! He really wanted to provide the best experience. We loved having a cozy, casual dinner at home, sometimes observing, sometimes chatting, sometimes helping to cookâ€”and plenty of eating along the way! He was very flexible and left a few small containers of sauces too, so that we could have some yummy leftovers.

Marley Z.

Booked the class Authentic Chinese Fare with Chef Wen

Chef Wen was very friendly and jovial, while sprinkling in cooking tips about knife skills, noodle-making, and layering flavors. We loved the four-course meal we ate! The class was on time and he brought all the ingredients he needed.

Brook W.

The class was amazing and delicious. We had a great time making the food. He was very kind. Thanks for making my birthday special.

Jennifer L.

Booked the class Middle Eastern Mezze with Chef Pooja in East Bay (San Ramon)

Chef Pooja is a professional chef and my partner and I felt so lucky to be learning from her. The recipes were easy to follow and the food was absolutely delicious. She is also health conscious and extremely informed about various aspects to healthy cooking. We will certainly be going back for more!

Rowan L.

Booked the class Quintessential Chinese Cooking with Chef Wen

Chef Wen is amazing!! He was very knowledgable about Chinese cooking and was super engaging throughout the entire class.

Kenneth D.

Booked the class Flavors of Beijing with Chef Wen

Chef Wen was delightful! Start to finish, the experience (Flavors of Beijing) was both instructive and fun. Chef arrived early to prep and stayed until all the cleanup was complete. The food was delicious and the conversation interesting. He kept us engaged and involved in the process throughout the evening, relating his experiences and history while patiently teaching and cooking. I highly recommend inviting him to cook for you in your home and share in the experience.

Chef Wen was highly knowledgeable about the cuisine and was a delight to watch. His class was very hands on and we were involved in every step of the way. I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking to further their knowledge of Chinese cuisine, or who simply enjoys eating Chinese cuisine.

Mark S.

Booked the class The Mastery of Spanish Fare with Chef Roddy in San Jose (Campbell)

I bought this as a surprise birthday gift for my fiancÃ©, and we had so much fun! We were a part of every step, learned A LOT, and our two chefs were super fun and engaging. Truly made all of the cooking feel possible at home. Would definitely go back for another class. Thank you for making this birthday gift so special.

Wil S.

Booked the class Quintessential Chinese Cooking with Chef Wen in San Francisco (Excelsior)

Chef Wen has 40 years as a chef. That much is clear, we started off with some knife skills and made some cool decorations with his cleaver as our other guests were in route. He brought his son and wife and they all helped make the night a total blast. Jing(sp?) was a bun master! She helped teach us how to fold them just right. What a talent! Allan(Sp?), Chen Wen's son, was very helpful in translating some of the finer points of the preparation. Very awesome family! I speak a little Mandarin so that made it even better : ) We started with bun dough, letting it rise and do its thing. Then we made the tan tan noodles. The sauce was AMAZING! Wowowowowowow! Then we made potatoes with cane sugar, I didn't know about this traditional dish, and I lived in China for a while! IT was very cool, a totally delicious dish that is a cool party trick as well! String sugar makes it fun to show off! Then we steamed the buns, which were freaking incredible. So authentic! Besides preparing this mouth-watering feast, he kept our kitchen spotless. The only sign we had a professional chef in our midst was the lingering aroma of the killer food! Do not pass up a meal with Chef Wen and his family!

David S.

Booked the class A Taste of Burma with Chef Sara in East Bay (Concord)

The CozyMeal Burmese cooking class with Chef Sara was amazing. My daughter and I had a wonderful time learning how to prepare a Burmese salad and lovely curry infused chicken with pasta main course. Chef Sara was knowledgeable and friendly. She worked one on one with my daughter, giving her cooking tips for all types of cooking. We highly recommend Chef Sara for your in-house cooking lessons or group training session.

Really great and fun experience!!!! Our chef was super friendly and explained everything, including some of their own suggestions on how to adjust the taste of the main course. Got to participate hands on with the cooking and prep and the end result was delicious!!!

Doug F.

Booked the class A Taste of Burma with Chef Sara in San Francisco (Noe Valley)

Chef Sara was awesome! The food was amazing (we made a Burmese salad, similar to tea leaf salad, and a chicken khao soi). We are thrilled that now we know how to make these dishes ourselves. And Sara gave us a lot of handy tips that we will probably be using in our kitchen for years. 10/10!
