Booked the class Gluten-Free Dumpling Delights with Chef Parsati in San Jose (Edenvale)
We had SUCH a good time with Chef Parsati!! She made the class a very welcoming experience, in a homey setting, with plenty of hands-on instruction and fun. The recipes are _delicious_! My wife and I will 100% be making them in our kitchen, especially since Chef Parsati specifically talked about ways that we could adapt what she taught us to make them even more simple and easily even for a weeknight dinner. I really appreciated that she was super-cognizant of our dietary restrictions and went the extra mile to make sure our concerns were addressed and the meal was enjoyable for everyone involved.

All I can say is WOW!!! My college son (21) and I had a wonderful experience learning about Indian cooking, spices, how to combine, and how to enjoy. Chef Parsati was so welcoming, full of knowledge and a vast background of all cuisines. My son and I made the exact same meal for my family a few days later and everyone loved it. My husband said "this is the best curry I've had this side of England" I can't wait to make it again for friends and show off my new skills and understanding of Indian cuisine. Thank you Chef Parsati. You made my special time with my boy a memorable experience.

I did the Ayurveda course from Chef Parsati as a Christmas gift for my mom and she loved it!!!

We very much enjoyed Parsati’s class! We took Indian Cooking Techniques and learned how to make Chicken Pasanda as well as a rice, salad, and dessert. Parsati was very welcoming, friendly and is clearly an experienced cook in a variety of cuisines. She answered all of our questions knowledgeably, and explained the variations in techniques and ingredients necessary to make many dishes beyond the ones we were making. I’d definitely recommend any class taught by Parsati!

Booked the class Gluten-Free Dumpling Delights with Chef Parsati in San Jose (Edenvale)
We learned how to cook dumplings of several kinds. The best thing about Chef Parsati was how easily she demonstrated many possible variations of the dishes which catered to our dietary restrictions. The ingredients were healthy and her techniques ensured that the cooking time was sufficiently short to be adapted for a busy schedule. The dessert was amazing as well and I was amazed to see how efficient the techniques she demonstrated were. I will highly recommend this to everyone. This is a great bonding activity for couples.

Booked the class Vegetarian Japanese Favorites with Chef Parsati in San Jose (Edenvale)
I took Chef Parsati’s vegetarian Japanese cooking class with my niece, and we absolutely loved it! The class was hands-on, beautifully organized, and full of flavor. Chef Parsati made the experience approachable and fun for all ages — she even added a braised salmon dish just for my niece, which was such a thoughtful touch. We learned so many great techniques, from sushi rolling to stir-frying perfect yakisoba noodles, and everything we made tasted incredible — especially the homemade unagi sauce and the silky green tea custard to finish. The atmosphere felt like a true izakaya experience, and Chef Parsati’s warmth and knowledge made it even more special. Highly recommend this class for anyone looking to explore Japanese cooking — whether you’re a beginner, a vegetarian, or just looking for a memorable culinary experience to share with family!
Booked the class Indian Cooking Techniques with Chef Parsati in San Jose (Edenvale)
My husband and I attended the Indian cooking techniques class at her home and had a great time. Chef Parsati was very welcoming and helped us prepare four dishes. I learned about the magical Indian spice box that one should keep for Indian cooking since you can use the same spices for a lot of dishes in Indian cooking; the main differences are cooking methods (grill vs stove) and if you use cream or not for the sauce. The food turned out well. I was surprised to learn that you could make pulao in an Instant Pot and it was fairly easy! The dishes we learned about today did not seem too fussy to prepare at home so I’m eager to try these recipes soon!

I went to the ayurvedic cooking class to celebrate my birthday and had a blast. We made 5 different things. Everything on the menu was very flavorful and delicious but also very healthy. We look forward to taking more classes with this instructor. Chef Parsati is awesome. She enjoys teaching and answering questions. She also has a very kind and welcoming demeanor. We also really liked that she frequently explained different substitutions. It really is clear that she is interested in making sure you actually will be able to recreate these dishes at home. Can't wait to go back again!!

My partner and I had a great time in Chef Parsati's class. She made the process feel much easier than expected, even with lots of things to do or prep. Her approach to the recipes is also very holistic, so you can learn the principles behind why you perform each step and not just what to do in order. Every dish had great flavor as well as high nutritional value - striking a balance between food you can enjoy and a clean, healthy taste. Highly recommend her class if you're interested in learning to cook Indian cuisine & its principles!

Chef Parsati made this the warmest, most meaningful and informative event I’ve ever experienced. My partner and I went for our anniversary and it made for such a sweet experience.

I appreciated the whole group and process.

I gave Chef Parsati's "Explore Northern India" class to my sister as a present and it certainly was a fun experience to have together. Chef took the time to learn about our cooking habits at home and tailored her tips and tricks to our needs. It really felt like we were hanging out in a friend's kitchen. All the recipes felt very approachable, and everything turned out delicious! We were so excited to try these new recipes again that we drove to the Indian grocery store nearby right after the class, and picked up some supplies.

Embarking on a culinary adventure with Chef Parasti through Cozymeal's private cooking class was an experience to cherish. Her warmth and hospitality shone through from the moment we began, making us feel right at home in the world of vegetarian Japanese cuisine. Chef Parasti's passion for cooking and her expertise in vegetarian dishes were evident as she skillfully guided us through each recipe, sharing tips and tricks that only a seasoned chef would know. The atmosphere was light and joyful, with laughter and learning blending seamlessly as we prepared delicious, healthful dishes. Her patience and encouragement inspired confidence in our cooking abilities, turning what could have been a daunting task into an enjoyable and educational endeavor. The end result was not just a meal, but a memorable experience that enriched our appreciation for Japanese cuisine and left us eager to explore more. Chef Parasti's class was not just about cooking; it was about connecting with food and each other in the most delightful way.

Class was very practical as we had hoped and followed the schedule described. However, Chef Parsati spoke a lot about being a zero waste kitchen while frequently throwing out food that could be saved (such as a seaweed sheet she had ripped to show the size we were aiming for)

Chef Parsati was a joy to learn from. As a teacher myself, I respect her ability to break down intimidating techniques to novices like ourselves into simple to follow steps. My fiancé and I have already made the recipe again and loved it! She used our own culinary experiences and ethnic cuisines to make the class personalized and approachable. Thanks for the wonderful experience Chef Parsati!

We took the Indian Cooking Techniques class with Chef Parsati and had such a great experience. We each helped prepare different parts of the menu and she walked us through how and importantly why we were using various ingredients and spices.

Chef Parsati was great from the moment reserved the experience. She was very responsive and ensured we were able to easily get to her place. She kept the time structured, but yet kept our cooking experience personalized. Chef Parsati has a wealth of experience that she pulls from as she guides you through making amazing food and has substantial experience (and stories) of her living and cooking in several countries. I would highly recommend her as a Chef, Teacher, Host and even as an entertainer. Thank you for an amazing date evening for my girlfriend and I.
