Chef Lula was phenomenal! I planned a surprise Bday cooking class/dinner for my husband, and Chef Lula took all the stress away. She arrived on-time and brought EVERYTHING! She made herself available to chat with prior to arriving and made an allergy accommodation for my husband. This was the best experience ever! The entire meal we prepared was so flavorful and delicious. We learned so much along the way. She made the night fun and a wonderful take-away experience. We had so much food left over, and it tasted even better the next day. Don't hesitate to book her for a casual or a fancy class/ meal, it was a great experience. Will be booking again very soon! Thank you Chef Lula!!!!

We had a good time, Chef Lula was prompt and had good music playing. We went with an italian cuisine and it was good! We did specify no allergies but failed to think about spice level, and the food was quite spicy for most to enjoy. If I could make any change to the dinner it would have been to be able to add red pepper to our individual meals instead of having it in all of the meals for us. Overall, we had a great time, she played great music and was very friendly and accommodating for our group.

Chef Lula was such a delight and her food was absolutely amazing. She was so pleasant and funny, if I had the chance to book her again I most definitely will. Not only that she made sure to give us advice on different ways of cooking and ingredients as well as a demonstration of it.

Chef and food were beyond amazing. She is extremely professional. Brother and I could have taken the lady's to a nice dinner but this hands on experience was even better. We learned so much from chef during this dinner. When the site says she is bringing everything but plates they were serious. As we prepared everything Chef came behind us cleaning and teaching. Chef Lula was funny, patient, informative, and clean. Spoiler alert!!! From salad to dessert everything was astounding. My partner doesn't eat seafood but she loved the shrimp salad. The bacon OMG wow. Steak, potato and asparagus were perfect and delicious. The science behind cooking asparagus left us shocked (lame joke) but true. The bourbon peach cobbler was perfection. We will be booking the next experience very soon

Chef Lula was great! She walked us through each step in food preparation and guided us well. We had such a fun time and greatly enjoyed our experience! She even put any leftovers in our tupperware for us. Since she brought all the things to cook the meal, there were no dishes to clean up, which was particularly good as my partner and I were in a delicious food coma by the end of the night. Thank you so much for such a wonderful time, Chef Lula!

Jamaican cuisine with Chef Lula was such a delightful experience. My sweetie and I were prepared for an adventure and Chef Lula did not disappoint. She arrived with a wagon full of all the essentials - pots, pans, bowls, utensils, cleaning supplies, pre-marinated meat, seasonings, fresh herbs, veggies - the whole nine. Under the sound of Caribbean music and with an incredibly cheerful disposition she handed us aprons and encouraged us into each of the tasks at hand. Lula has a passion for the process, she paused to invite us to smell and taste and explore. The laughs were like time with family and the perfection of the plate leaves you wanting nothing except another night in the kitchen. Thank you for your talents Chef Lula!

Definitely 5 stars, Chef Lula was superb, during the class, she made us feel comfortable, to even those attended who felt intimidated & normally did not cook. Chef Lula had a way of calming fears all the while educating us on the dishes. The taste was phenomenal. I will definitely recommend Chef Lula & Cozymeal to others, a great team building event for companies or just a group of friends fellowshipping as we did.

OMG! I had no idea of what to expect, and my husband and I were wondering if we made the right decision to do something out of the ordinary to celebrate our six month anniversary. She did not disappoint! Her customer service was everything! Her food was amazing, and she used quality ingredients. It was worth every penny, and then some.

Chef Lula was absolutely amazing! My husband thoroughly enjoyed his birthday dinner she prepared. Everything was cooked to perfection with serving sizes that were more than enough! Our 2yr old was even eating the steak and loved it! The bourbon pecan pie had such a unique and delicious flavor that we have never tasted before and glad we optedto leave the bourbon in it. The overall experience was above and beyond what we expected and we are so glad we chose Chef Luna for our special occasion. We highly recommend her for your personal chef or catering event.

Chef Lula was such a blast to learn from. This food was absolutely amazing and such a great anniversary gift.

Chef Lula is full of wonderful surprises! I would highly recommend booking with Chef Lula if you consider yourself a foodie.

Such a fun experience! Highly recommend if you're looking for something more than just going to a restaurant. Food was incredibly delicious and picked up a new knife trick along the way. Chef Lula was very thorough and explained everything she was doing. Always helpful to learn tips and tricks from a professional. Plus it’s a great way to spend date night!

Felicia

Chef Lula was incredible! We enjoyed everything about our Jamaican Cooking Class. My favorite item was the kale. The portion sizes were plentiful and we had leftovers. She had so many "special touches/surprises". We informed her ahead of time that we really enjoyed spicy food and she made a special effort to include extra heat where appropriate. Our kitchen was clean when she left and that is always a plus. I definitely recommend her. Umm Umm Good!

Had a wonderful time with Chef Lula in the class. She brought all the supplies with her and was very patience with us since this was the first time we were doing a cooking class. She went over all the instructions very slowly for us to understand and grasp the chemistry behind the way she cooked all the dishes. She was also kind enough to go out of her way and get meat from a specific meat market due to the religious dietary restrictions we had. I would recommend her class for anyone who wants to learn some good appetizers, steaks and desserts.

Holy moly, where do I even begin? 1. Chef Lula is an amazing chef! Seriously, the food we made is some of the best I've ever had. We did the Jamaican Feast and every single thing was cooked perfectly. The chicken skin was so crisp and juicy, and it was flavored with seasoning just right! We also had plantains, rice, pigeon peas (my first time eating these, and wow), kale with peppers, garlic bread, and grilled pineapple caramelized with jerk seasoning and sugar. For dessert we had a fruit pie, with coconut, papaya, and pineapple. The great part about the food was that she explained how to recreate everything she did and gave us tips and tricks for applying these techniques outside of this specific meal. She also gave us the leftover raw pineapple she didn't use, and gave us little cups filled with the seasoning and sugar so we could make the same thing! We also have leftovers for days with all the food she prepared. I woke up craving the food we had last night, and sat over my kitchen island this morning like a crazy person eating the leftovers straight from the fridge. 2. She was also super professional, especially in the wake of COVID. She kept her mask on all the time and encouraged safe social distancing (even though I was constantly leaning over her shoulder to get a look at how she was chopping/stirring/grilling the food. Overall, a wonderful experience! Would highly suggest Chef Lula to anyone who is interested in a fun, delicious meal.

Chef Lula is absolutely amazing. She was so personable, patient, and is a true teacher who is obviously passionate for her skill. She helped my husband and I celebrate our anniversary so memorably, and the food was AWESOME - my husband was making his “Mm mm mm” sounds as he was eating, so that’s how we knew it was great! Chef Lula is definitely in her purpose with this service, and on top of that, she brought all the food, spices, tools, and everything in between. Plus, she left our kitchen just as spotless as she found it. We will definitely use her services again!
