Emily wasnt our chef but it was a fun and wonderful experience. Be prepared to get your hands dirty. Really delicious and easy to make food and we learned a lot about cooking!

Booked the class Pasta and Other Italian Classics with Chef Mariana in Brooklyn (Williamsburg)

Mariana was super sweet and informative. I really enjoyed the dishes that we made. We made so much spaghetti that we were too full to even make it to dessert!

Booked the class A Taste of Japan with Chef Leon in Manhattan (SoHo)

What a great experience. Fun, exciting, new skills, and dishes! It was like having a friend teach you all the amazing food you only eat in fancy restaurants. Appreciation of quality ingredients, attention and care. Bravo Chef Leon Anthony for making our birthday celebration so memorable. Would recommend this experience to all!

Clayton G. February, 2022

Booked the class Even Financial Elegant French Cooking with Chef Paul in Manhattan (SoHo)

Everything was great! It was a little intense sometimes with some of the chefs. They wanted everything to be perfect which is fine but none of us are trained cooks so that seems like a high expectation to have.

Ashley O. February, 2022

Booked the class Flavorful Italian Foundations with Chef Madi

We loved our private Italian cooking class with Madi! She walked us through all the steps of the recipes seamlessly and taught us new techniques that only a professional chef would know. All of the dishes were delicious and we loved that she included some of her seasonings that she makes personally herself. She was very professional and prepared - bringing all the ingredients and equipment with her and cleaning everything up afterwards as well! It was a pleasure learning from her and we hope to do another cooking class with her soon!

Booked the class Modern Twists on Traditional Italian with Chef Joaselyn in Manhattan (Upper East Side)

We had such an incredible experience learning from Joaselyn. With her clear, organized instruction every bite came out perfectly. She is so sweet and we enjoyed chatting with her about her recent travels and meeting her adorable dog, Petra. We will be recommending Joaselyn to friends and family, especially those visiting from out of town for a unique New York experience!

Marley O. December, 2019

Joaselyn was awesome! My boyfriend and I had such a fun time cooking and playing with her super cute dog. She took the time and taught us how to do Everything. This was necessary because we were very much beginnners. The menu was perfect and it was such a great date night. Thank you, Joaselyn!!

Booked the class A Special Birthday: Tantalizing Tapas with Chef Joaselyn in Manhattan (Upper East Side)

I set up a booking with Joaselyn for my girlfriend and I on her birthday and WOW we were both so impressed and thrilled by the experience. Joaselyn is not just an excellent cook, but a great teacher and really fun person to talk to. Her space was beautiful with excellent views of the city and Joaselyn made us feel at home right away. The menu was ambitious without being overwhelming, and we got started immediately - it was so wonderful to be able to participate and learn how to create a beautiful and delicious meal from scratch! We're excited to make try these dishes at home. Cannot recommend enough. 11/10, would book again.

Linda B. June, 2019

Booked the class Tantalizing Tapas with Chef Joaselyn in Manhattan (Upper East Side)

My wife and I had a great time at the "Tantalizing Tapasâ€ cooking class organized by Cozymeal. Our chef, Joaselyn, made our eveningâ€™s experience absolutely fun and enjoyable. We learned that we could make an array of delicious tapas by simply selecting some easy-to-get ingredients and preparing them the right way. Our cooking environment was pleasant and Joaselyn was friendly, patient and great to work with. We followed her step-by-step instructions and totally immersed ourselves in preparing and cooking five different tapas. A must-mentioned is Joaselynâ€™s sauces! They are easy to make and tasted heavenly. The best part of these sauces is that you can apply them to a wide variety of food, may it be vegetables, meats or bread, and they are all yummy! The last part of the class was the easiest one --- my wife and I had a sit-down tapas dinner after our class and thoroughly enjoyed our delightful creations. We will get our recipes for what we learned that evening, and will definitely do this again to learn some more interesting dishes from Joaselyn.

Michael Z. August, 2018

Booked the class Vibrant Italian Market Cooking with Chef Michael in Manhattan (Chinatown)

Chef Michael provided a great experience! My date and I were lucky enough to have a private session which was a great chance for us to ask Michael a ton of questions on his cooking experience and travelling in general. We are excited to practice the techniques he taught us in making the meal, especially the delicious risotto. We can't wait to come back for another class!

Booked the class Modern Steakhouse with Chef Ozzy in Manhattan (Upper East Side)

My wife and I took the "modern steakhouse" cooking class with Ozzy because we were having trouble getting the desired temperature on our steaks. Ozzy came to our apartment for the class which I thought was very helpful because we got to learn in our own kitchen. Ozzy is a very experienced and accomplished chef but he was also very friendly and we loved his teaching style as it allowed us to watch him and then replicate for ourselves. Iâ€™ve cooked steak 3 times since and I have been able to cook the steak at medium rare consistently. We are very grateful that we took this lesson and would recommend Chef Ozzy to anyone that wants to learn about cooking.

Booked the class Private Event - John & Family - SPECIAL MENU with Chef Todd in Long Island (Dix Hills)

Chef Todd was amazing!!! He included all of us in preparing an awesome meal. The recipes were relatively simple, yet the out come was off the charts delicious!!! Chef and his wife Millie are an unbelievable team. They served the food in an artistic and loving fashion as well as cleaned everything. I would easily rate them a 20 on a 1 to 10 scale. I look forward to an event like this again in the future. Johnny A.

Jose R. October, 2023

Booked the class Private Event - SiriusXM- Pandora Team -Elegant French Cooking with Chef Paul in Manhattan (SoHo)

I highly recommend Chef Paul. He hosted my corporate group of around 30 lawyers. The space is beautiful and met my highest expectations in terms of a culinary studio. Chef Paul was a great host, and he had plenty of staff to help with the different parts of the process. I appreciated that it was very laid back and tailored to our group, the Chef allowed us to play our own music on his speakers, we could order wine from a local shop to the event and he was flexible with a good number of dietary restrictions and food preferences. I highly recommend this for anyone, but also anyone looking for a corporate team building event, I don't see how you can beat this location.

Leslie W. October, 2023

Giovanni C. September, 2023

Booked the class Pasta and Other Italian Classics with Chef Mariana in Brooklyn (Williamsburg)

What an amazing experience! I decided to do this class with my partner for her birthday and we had such a great time. Chef Mariana is incredibly knowledgeable and very kind. She taught us to make fresh pasta, a classic bolognese sauce, a Carbonaro sauce, an eggplant appetizer, and a tiramisu for dessert. We laughed and discussed food, life and everything in between. Chef Mariana thoughtfully answered all our questions as we went through the process and was very encouraging. Her space and the environment she created was professional, clean, and the view from her windows, overseeing the water pulled the whole experience together. The food was soooo good! She served us and because it was my partnerâ€™s birthday, she put a candle in her tiramisu. It is obvious we had a great time? Lol. Honestly, if youâ€™re looking to learn from a pro who makes the process simple and fun, Chef Mariana is it. My partner and I would definitely do this again. We had a beautiful time!
