Huda is a delight from beginning to end. Her food was spectacular and her service, personality, her total essence was such a pleasure. She is truly a gifted chef and a wonderfully warm, caring person. The evening was perfect.

Chef Huda was absolutely wonderful to say the least. Not only was each course of the meal fantastic and on point for the Mediterranean menu, but the Chef herself is a wonderful person to spend an evening with. The entire process was so easy and enjoyable from start to finish and I couldn't recommend it or Chef Houda more. Fantastic night all around.

A wonderful experience. Chef Huda was amazing. She was knowledgeable and walked us through all the dishes, was very accommodating to dietary needs, and was very easy going to have. Food was amazing and experience was a 10/10. Would recommend her to anyone who wants to try new foods and cultures!

This past Friday we had an AMAZING class with Chef Huda. We made homemade ravioli with a white cream sauce and a berry tart for dessert. She came prepared, on time, and made the experience one to remember! An excellent teacher and very personable. We highly recommend booking a class with Chef Huda!

We had a great time. Chef Huda was patient with our three couple group. And accommodated one of our party who wanted no meat. It was a fabulous evening. It was our second Cozy Meal class in less than four months and we plan to come back again. (m)

My experience with Chef Huda was absolutely amazing!!!! This was my first time booking a class and she exceeded what I had in my mind. Not only is she very pleasant, she explains things step by step, she is patient (cause we ainвЂ™t chefs), and she is sooo sweet! We did the pasta experience, but IвЂ™m excited to do some more. We will definitely book with her again! Thanks Chef Huda, see you soon!

Chef Huda is the best!!! I had bought a cooking class for my boyfriendвЂ™s birthday and I donвЂ™t know how IвЂ™ll be able to top the experience. Chef Huda is hilarious, kind, and patient, making the class so much fun and manageable. Not to mention the food was DELICIOUS! We finished everything and have been craving the food ever since. Luckily, with chef Huda, we now know how to make it! Take a class with her and you wonвЂ™t be disappointed. We love you Chef Huda!

Chef Huda was delightful! She taught us a ton, and in a way that was accessible, friendly, and fun. The food was delicious - I couldn't believe we made it (and how easy it was to do so). Highly recommend!
