Chef Alex did a wonderful job at explaining all the details of making the meal. He was very thorough and patient. At the end of the class, we were left with an amazing meal while he cleaned the kitchen. We will definitely used what we learned for future meals! I recommend if you're looking for a fun date or even just a desire to want to learn how to cook something new & delicious. Thanks Alex!

We had never done something like this before, and Alex made it so easy and comfortable. The food was delicious, and he left the kitchen in perfect condition. Great date night idea! We’ll be looking into a class with him next.

We received Cozy Meal experience as a gift. We weren't sure what to expect. Inviting a stranger in our home to teach us cooking techniques while cooking a 5-course meal seemed so unorthodox. However, what a treat it was. Chef Alex was very friendly, and he adapted well to our kitchen area. We started with making a bolognese. Once that was in the oven, we made ricotta! It tasted amazing. I will be making it again. We roasted tomatoes and pancetta and enjoyed a delicious bruschetta with an arugula salad and a homemade vinaigrette. This was followed by making our own pasta, cooking it, and smothering it with the bolognese. For dessert, we enjoyed a caramel custard that tasted like werther's caramels. The whole menu is Chef Alex's own creation. This was a meal we would order at a nice restaurant. Very delicious and now we can make it at home for ourselves. I also want to add that my 9 year old granddaughter joined in on the fun. Chef Alex was very patient with her and took extra time to explain the process with her. I didn't expect her to eat much of the meal, but she ate some of all of it, including the arugula salad. Overall, we were very pleased and would do it again thanks to Chef Alex.

Alex was great! He was so knowledgeable with all things cooking, and indulged any questions we had. It was a full night of cooking, but he split up the courses and made it feel very relaxing. Will definitely be doing this again in the future!

We had a fantastic time! Enjoyed learning from and chatting with Chef Alex. The food was wonderful. Our only recommendation to Cozymeal is to allow for earlier times on the weekends!

We had the absolute best time with Alex and have already started saving for another class! We are a young couple and very new to cooking and Alex was an incredible teacher and chef. We would have been so intimidated to make any of these foods on our own, but Alex showed us just how attainable it can be. We learned so much and can't stop talking about how yummy the menu was. 100% recommend taking a class with Alex!

I have no culinary skills at all, and Alex helped me make delicious meals that I would have been too intimidated to make on my own. Alex not only made the dishes accessible, but he improved my confidence in the kitchen and I had a great time working with him. Thanks Alex!
