Chef Kathy was both patient and knowledgeable. This was such an enjoyable experience I would refer anyone looking for a class or a chef to her. We had various levels of cooking experience and she was able to quickly assimilate and tailor her guidance accordingly.

The experience was so much fun! Chef Kathy has a bright personality and it shows in her menu. We brought some wine to enjoy while cooking which I recommend. As a home cook it was nice to learn some new recipes, innovative tips and techniques, and to learn to time the meal prep so everything comes out together. We will be trying a new menu next time but Chef Kathy has several menu selections so we are excited to work with her again!

We had an awesome night cooking with Chef Kathy! She was so personable and professional and the recipes she had us make were delicious. Best ravioli we've ever had hands down! She took us step by step and we made everything from scratch which is what we were looking for from a cooking class. She was very knowledgeable about the products we were using and helped tailor the recipes to our liking. She made it a very enjoyable night and we highly recommend her to those wanting to learn how to cook and make some amazing food!

My girlfriend and I booked the 'Pasta, Truffles, and More!' class with Chef Kathy and had an absolutely amazing time! Her home in Indian Rocks Beach is so nice and welcoming... oh, and so is Kathy herself! Kathy invited us into her home and helped us feel comfortable right off the bat with her instruction and the vibe in general. The food ended up being delicious AND Kathy was nice enough to accommodate for my girlfriend's pescatarian diet. Overall was a very good experience and would recommend Chef Kathy's courses to anyone interested in learning a bit more about basic techniques in the kitchen and those who are just looking for a lovely evening with delicious food.

Kathy was fantastic, and extremely knowledgeable! My sister, mother, and I had a great time. Kathy welcomed us into her home, taught and helped us make the menu, answered all our questions and taught us additional things as we asked about them. The food was delicious, and the cozy meal interface made the process very easy. I truly have nothing but positive things to say.

Chef Kathy was outstanding, and we loved everything about our experience. Her knowledge, skill, and patience, combined with her friendly, easy-going attitude, made making dinner, for even someone like me with zero cooking ability, a breeze. The highlight of our meal was our entree of black pasta with seafood, and I will be dreaming of it for weeks to come. I highly recommend Chef Kathy!

This class was so much fun! Chef Kathy had fresh, homemade ingredients and was a delight to cook with. We had such a great time and appreciate how she designed a menu for us!

The experience was ruined when one of the attendees got angry at Kathy and her husband. She was yelling that it was not a good experience and that it was not a nice night out for at least 45 minutes. It was a very tense and difficult situation. I think the attendee should have been asked to leave.

We had a great time with Chef Kathy. We did this for our family experience this year and would highly recommend it. Preparing the fresh pasta was a fun experience, as was the zucchini carpaccio, the charred octopus with picked potatoes and the almond cake. Everything was tasty. Kathy is very easy to work with. I would highly recommend using her and will be looking at other classes she teaches. Thank you Kathy!!

This was my first time using CozyMeal. What a great idea for date night or even team building. The idea of having a certified chef guiding you through cooking a fancy meal is great. Chef Kathy was a delight, she was a pleasure to work with.

The food was outstanding, the experience was really engaging and enjoyable and Chef Kathy did an exceptional job of encouraging everyone to participate and help to create a fabulous multi-family-course meal. Upon arrival it was clear that we were in for a treat. Everything was well organized and stations were nicely set up so that several of us could work on various food prep tasks simultaneously. All of the ingredients used were top shelf and the tools we were provided, from the cutlery to the pasta press, were ideal for the tasks at hand. The evening flowed smoothly as everyone asked questions, got some real hands-on experience and then enjoyed, as in really enjoyed, the fruits of our combined labor. Working alongside such a passionate, pleasant and capable chef helped to boost my kitchen confidence. It is easy to get intimidated while watching others cook but she made everything seem like I could replicate the steps and achieve a comparable culinary success on my own. Even if sharpening your cooking skills is not of interest, just enjoy the opportunity to leave the cooking to a true professional like Chef Kathy, whether in the comfort of your own home or some other suitable location, and discover a fun and fascinating way to experience some fantastic food.

Chef Kathy was amazing. She has vast cooking knowledge and has a way of sharing it so it's not intimidating. We did the home made cheese class and had a blast. Very, very highly recommended. Thanks Chef Kathy, you were awesome.

Chef Kathy’s home is an excellent host and is very detail oriented. She made me feel welcomed as soon as I walked into her home. Once she began to cook, she continued to follow her same meticulous pattern. She checked the temperature of the food she was preparing, she cut in perfect portions, and used quality fresh ingredients. You could taste the freshness in every bite. The blend of flavors were superb. Then she prepared two types of bruschetta with her homemade ricotta--they were both amazing. I thought it could not get any better, but I was wrong. Chef Kathy prepared the best chocolate panna cotta that I have ever tasted. I left chef Kathy’s home feeling as though I had just visited an old friend. She has a very kind demeanor and her cooking abilities were beyond my expectations.
