Booked the class Vegetarian Cooking Adventure with Chef Roddy in San Jose (Campbell)
Oscar, our chef and Oscar his sou chef were ready and waiting for us as we were the only couple to enjoy the vegetarian class. They spent time, energy and knowledge with us in an intimate, personable and patient manner and setting. It was great! We learned, tasted and sipped our way through our time and then enjoyed the meal they and we had prepared. We left with well packed extras and great memories.

Chef Libby was a great teacher! She was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions very happily. We learned so much and would happily take another class of hers. We're already looking into trying the sushi class :)
Booked the class Master Italian Classics for 2 with Chef Joni in South Bay & Peninsula (Snail)
Chef Joni was a pleasure to cook with. She was inviting and warm. I surprised my husband with the Italian cooking class for his birthday and we had such a wonderful time. Cooking the ragu, making homemade pasta and tiramisu was so special to us. We are looking forward to another class with her and definitely recommend her to everyone.
Booked the class Handmade Pasta and Italian Fare with Chef Ruel in San Jose (North San Jose)
Ruel is awesome! We were lucky enough to be the only couple who booked that night and had an amazing experience. We had so much fun cooking an amazing delicious meal.
Booked the class A Pizza Party with Chef Roger in San Jose (Alum Rock)
Chef Roger was amazing. He was very accommodating, knowledgeable and just all around great teacher. He made his class easy to learn and easy to achieve at home. He taught us new cooking techniques and even showed us how to make two amazing fresh salads from our own homegrown food. He sent us home with all the left overs from the class (which was a TON) and we left full and so very happy! What a wonderful class! I highly recommend chef Roger & cozymeal.
Booked the class Master Italian Classics for 2 with Chef Joni in South Bay & Peninsula (Snail)
Joni is a fabulous instructor! My wife and I had an incredible experience learning Italian cooking in Joni’s very cozy space. Joni is knowledgeabe and creative in specific kitchen skills, and has expertise in the science behind food and cooking. We learned so much about what different cooking techniques do at even the molecular level. On top of all her knowledge, Joni is friendly, engaging, and a patient instructor. It felt like good friends cooking a meal together. We could not have asked for a better experience!

My wife and I had a fantastic time with Chef Joni. We had fun cooking and learned a great deal, which is exactly what we were hoping for! I will be recommending her to my friends, for sure.
Booked the class Master Italian Classics for 2 with Chef Joni in South Bay & Peninsula (Snail)
Chef Joni was kind and informative. Not only did she teach us the basic skills to make the "Italian classics" as advertised, she also delved deep into the science behind cooking, detailing the molecular structures of the various foods and how they interact with other foods. As a beginner, I learned that there is a lot to learn about cooking. I surprised my girlfriend with this cooking class and she loved it! Our experience lasted for roughly 3 hours so be prepared to be standing the entire time. We were quite tired after all the cooking. This is an awesome experience to have with your significant other and I cannot recommend Chef Joni enough. Thanks so much!

Cooking with Joni was a blast. She was knowledgeable and made everything feel so easy! It had been on my wife's bucket list to make pasta for years, so it was amazing to finally do it. And, of course, the meal was delicious!

Booked the class Great Gnocchi Dinner with Chef Rocco in San Jose (Edenvale)
Chef Rocco's class was so much fun! He is extremely knowledgeable in Italian cuisine and culture. I had such a blast getting to know him and his experience in the food industry. Chef Rocco is extremely passionate about food and it truly shows in his teaching style and food. I look forward to our next class!
Booked the class The Art of Pasta Making with Chef Roddy in San Jose (Campbell)
Horrible experience that was essentially a scam. Chef Roddy was not present. We were barely given an opportunity to prepare any of the dishes and were essentially taught nothing. Starting with the sauce, the chef just made the sauce themselves. They did not give instructions, only listed ingredients or quantities when we asked. There was no instruction given on how to make the pasta besides combining flour plus egg and barely any oversight as they were focused on making the sauce behind us. There was no option to make gnocchi or ravioli as in the description. We were not taught to make the salad address from scratch as in the description as this was prepared in advance. Additionally, the panna cotta was also prepared in advance so there was no teaching there. At every opportunity, things were made in advance and done as quickly as possible by the chef without us and without any sort of instruction. We felt rushed despite being the only group of 3 and left an hour before our designated time. This seemed like this “cooking class†was doing below to bare minimum just to check off the boxes.

Booked the class Vegetarian Cooking Adventure with Chef Roddy in San Jose (Campbell)
Soooo much fun! We loved having the whole restaurant to ourselves to learn and eat after. Super fun, and way cooler than we expected being able to take pictures in our chefs hats and work with different chefs for our meal. We will definitely be back one day to try another menu!

We loved the chef and learned a few things but the class was supposed to go 3 hrs but ended at 1 1/2 hrs. We did not get to make the dessert or the Ceasar Dressing. A bit disappointed on that.

Experience was great. The resident/Chef Roddy were able to accommodate late adds to our party and were very hospitable. Restaurant was a little warm inside when we arrived but AC was turned up and the fan was out on. Overall great Mother’s Day experience.

We had a great time with Chef Rodney and his team. We had about 11 people in our group and the reviews of the class and the meal all came back fantastic from our team. The only thing I'd want to warn future participants of is that this experience is a bit of a blend between having a cooking class and a meal. The Chef's team ran us through a few recipes as a group like making a scratch Ceasar Dressing, bolognese, and garlic bread. Then we all divided into small groups and tried our hand at making pasta. We sampled our creations, but then a bit of cooking show magic happened, and Chef's team took over. They brought out premade portions for the rest of the meal and brought it together. So we got to have a very nice meal served. Had some fun in the kitchen. And had a great private experience. Great event, I'm a big fan.

Booked the class Handmade Pasta and Italian Fare with Chef Ruel in San Jose (North San Jose)
This was our first Cozymeal dining experience, and boy did Chef Ruel set a high bar! The food was absolutely amazing. He did a fantastic job coaching us through the cooking process, explaining his different techniques to bring the most out of each dish. He is very personable, and put effort into the venue making sure the space was spotless and ready for cooking. Can't recommend him highly enough.
Booked the class Handmade Pasta and Italian Fare with Chef Ruel in San Jose (North San Jose)
We had a great time with Chef Ruel! Great entertainment and we learned how to make amazing pasta. The menu was well selected, instructions were on point and it felt like we were spending time with a good friend. What a wonderful evening with food that we can't wait to re-create! Can't wait to try some of Chef Ruel's other menus in the future :)
Booked the class Homemade Italian Dinner with Chef Drea in San Jose (Alum Rock)
We had a lovely and relaxing time. Got to make and taste some delicious food. Thank you Chef Drea!
Booked the class Handmade Pasta and Italian Fare with Chef Ruel in San Jose (North San Jose)
Beyond our expectations. Chef Ruel and his sous chef, Shelly made our cooking class for our family of 3 so memorable and we learned so much! I took a pasta cooking class in Florence a few years ago, and Chef Ruel made it so much easier, by teaching us two methods. Who knew, I could use my Kitchenaid to make the most delicious pasta. I highly recommend Chef Ruel's class, and I'm already rounding up friends to take his empanada class.

Our family had a delightful experience learning from Chef Joni. She is a pleasure to have as a teacher, and her methods for showing us how to make simple, delicious Italian food made it fun along the way. We would definitely do it again. Thank you Chef Joni!
Booked the class Master Italian Classics for 2 with Chef Joni in South Bay & Peninsula (Snail)
Chef Joni was an amazing teacher and chef! We had a great time learning techniques from her as well as the science behind the cooking. She did a great job explaining why techniques work and we walked away with knowledge that we are going to use in all of our cooking going forward. It was an amazing experience as a couple because we both enjoy cooking together and we got to learn new things together. Joni was amazing and super friendly. We loved chatting with her at the dinner table after the meal was completed. Everything tasted amazing. It was a perfect date night. Thank you so much for this experience! We loved it! Gabe and Liah

Chef Rogers was amazing! He customized a lunch for our family birthday celebration. He made a special dessert that was my daughters favorite. He was detailed and thorough and patient in teaching us how to make pizza and had plenty for us to take back. We went well over the time limit but he did not seem to mind. Great kitchen and setup for us. Would love to do this again with him.
