Booked the class Healthy Mexican Feast with Chef Tess in Portland (Rosemont)
Chef Tess was amazing! Very personable and relatable - great conversation and super friendly! She walked us through each step, but yet still "cooking on the fly" which personally, we love (I never follow recipes). Everything turned out wonderful and I am greatly looking forward to testing my hand at some of these recipes. Excited to book another soon!
Booked the class Southern Style Soul Food with Chef Conor in Portland (Northwest Portland)

Booked the class Stone Fired Pizza with Chef Tess in Portland (Rosemont)
I signed up for this class with my mom for mothers day. We have done cooking classes in the past but this was our first cozy meal class. The experience was awesome. We made pizza outside and was able to collect fresh herbs from the garden. Chef Tess was really nice and we learned some tips for making pizza in the future. The atmosphere was relaxed and perfect. We would sign up again.
Booked the class Classic Dim Sum Dumplings with Chef Jimmy in Portland (Sullivan's Gulch)
Chef Jimmy and his soux chef Henry were phenomenal. We couldn’t have failed if we tried. With proper instructions and attention we made excellent dumplings.
Booked the class Discover the Art of Pasta with Chef Sarah I.
What a wonderful experience! Sarah was amazing and my son had a blast. We learned how to make pasta, we used fresh herbs, we made sorbet, chicken, the best pesto ever and caprese salad. She was patient and explained things well to give us tips that we will continue to use. Seriously, recommend her cooking class to everyone!
Booked the class Classic Dim Sum Dumplings with Chef Jimmy in Portland (Sullivan's Gulch)
Chef Jimmy was great however the venue was poor. Most cooking classes you are more involved and can see and hear the chef as they cook. Didn’t feel very sanitary in the middle of a brewery. Table was too short and hurt the back. Chairs were a joke. I do not feel the class was worth the money at all.
Booked the class Classic Dim Sum Dumplings with Chef Jimmy in Portland (Sullivan's Gulch)
Chef Jimmy did an excellent job teaching us how to make Dim Sum Dumplings. The venue was sub par as it was in the back of a brewery and did not have proper work surfaces and seemed unclean. Jimmy did the best he could do with the area he had to work with.
Booked the class Taste of the Italian Countryside with Chef Sarah I.
Sarah was friendly, knowledgeable and very easy to have as a guest in our home. Loved her personality and enjoyed her teaching style. However, there were a couple of details that could have made the experience better. Sarah noticed as she unpacked her bags, that she had forgotten an important ingredient for the meal, so I ran to the store to pick it up for her. I did offer to do so. She was already running late from grabbing a missing ingredient on the way to our home. Also, she used all of my kitchen equipment, food processor, mixer, cooking pans, racks, mixing bowl etc. to prepare the meal. That was not a problem, but I had been told the chef came with almost all needed equipment. However, I must say that I did ask via messaging, if she needed anything. Also, at the end of the meal she talked about how tired she was from teaching a sushi class before our scheduled dinner and wanted to dash home and get off her feet. were in the dining room eating and did not notice, until after she departed and we walked back into the kitchen, that she had NOT cleaned up anything in the kitchen; all was just left as it was used; equipment, counter tops, spills on floor. It took my husband & I, 1.5 hours to do all the clean up after our meal, rather then doing it as we cooked or at least wiping counters, stovetop, equipment as it was used and easier to clean. Olive oil splatters, rings on counter tops, garlic peels all over floor, pots & pans not rinsed or put in sink. We really enjoyed Sarah and the class & food was fun & yummy‼ï¸. Clean up afterwards would have made the experience even better. What is your usual policy? We received a gift card from Cozymeals, so had no details on what to expect. Many thanks for a fun evening experience

Booked the class Homemade Italian Gnocchi with Chef Tess in Portland (Rosemont)
10 stars. I'm honestly still full of joy from our evening with Tess. Thank you, thank you, thank you. She is real, she is raw, she is COMFORTABLE. Aside from being fking FULL of knowledge, she is absolutely hilarious. There was not a single second where I felt out of place in my first ever cooking class. For some of us, it takes a lot to step out of our comfort zone to learn a new skill in front of a group of strangers, and not once did I worry about how others saw me or what Chef Tess thought of me as well. I left with confidence, a full belly, and I cannot wait to cook this meal for my family! Thank you, chef. I'll be booking another class ASAP.

This cooking lesson was a lot of fun and learning! Tess covered so much! Part cultural, part technics, we learned about the different kind of peppers being used in Mexico, the aromatics going into molé and how to process them. We also learned how to debone a chicken, how to build flavors as you saute veggies, etc, etc. All that in a relaxed atmosphere and beautiful home. I would definitely recommend it!

Booked the class Comfort Classics with Chef Tess in Portland (Rosemont)
My husband booked a lesson with Chef Tess for he and I as a Christmas gift. We had such an amazing time learning how to braise meat and use our cooking tools properly. Chef Tess entertained us with humor and delightful anecdotes of her culinary past. We laughed throughout the coarse and learned valuable tricks of the trade. I am already looking forward to booking another session very soon as everything turned out delicious. The cherry on top was the fun dessert. Thank you for the wonderful and unforgettable experience!

My coworkers and I had an absolute blast! Chef Tess is a great chef and entertainer. We even asked if she had other classes that she teaches, we would love to have her teach us again. I have learned so much about food and preparation, the gnocchi were delicious, the appetizers we made were incredible. Even Tess' kitchen is as so homey and complimented the Italian meal experience. I would highly recommend Tess and this gnocchi making experience to my friends and family. And will be trying to make gnocchi with my husband at home :)
