My recent Cozymeal experience with Chef Benoit was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I stepped into his warm and inviting home, I knew I was in for a memorable culinary adventure. Chef BenoitвЂ™s expertise shone through as we embarked on the delightful task of creating an exquisite meal. We began with a delicate and flavorful tuna tartare that set the tone for the evening. Following this, we prepared tournedos of beef filet accompanied by a rich and savory oyster mushroom fricassГ©e. The potatoes au gratin were perfectly creamy, while the green asparagus added a vibrant touch to the palette of dishes. To complete the meal, we baked pommes au four, which were a delightful and sweet conclusion to our feast. Chef Benoit's culinary mastery was evident not only in the delicious dishes but also in the invaluable food prep and cooking tips he shared. I left the event feeling fully capable of replicating the meal on my own, a testament to his teaching skills. His friendly and approachable demeanor made the cooking class enjoyable, while his deep knowledge of culinary arts provided a rich learning experience. Additionally, Chef BenoitвЂ™s ability to accommodate last-minute dietary restrictions was commendable, demonstrating his flexibility and consideration for his guests. This aspect, combined with the overall quality of the experience, positions it as an excellent option for team-building events. Receiving this experience as a gift was truly special. The meal not only turned out fantastic, but it was also delicious, showcasing the high standard of Chef Benoit's culinary talent. I highly recommend this Cozymeal experience to anyone looking to enhance their cooking skills or simply enjoy a wonderful meal in the company of a talented chef.

From the moment my wife and I stepped into his kitchen, Chef Gustavo's warm and personable nature put us at ease. His passion for cooking was immediately evident as he introduced us to the evening's menu, which featured a delightful array of dishes. We began with sautГ©ed shrimp infused with garlic, parsley, and dried chiles de ГЎrbol atop green plantain cakes. Chef Gustavo guided us through the process of preparing and cooking the plantains, demonstrating techniques that were both practical and impressive. Chef Gustavo's professional demonstration made a seemingly daunting task accessible and fun, especially with wrapping fillets in banana leaves. The sweet crГЄpes for dessert were the perfect conclusion to the meal. Chef Gustavo's couples cooking class was as enriching as enjoyable, highlighting Chef Gustavo's vast expertise and ability to create an engaging and informative atmosphere. Clear instructions and helpful tips made it easy for everyone to achieve perfect results; the hands-on approach made us feel confident and capable as we worked through each step. Throughout the class, his anecdotes and personal stories added a delightful layer of entertainment. Chef Gustavo's cooking class was a fantastic blend of learning and enjoyment. His expert guidance and personable teaching style made for an unforgettable culinary evening.

Chef Manjiri was very kind, helpful, a real down to earth and relatable person. She laid out everything that we would be using for the dishes and explained where we could get some authentic Indian ingredients and spices to recreate these at home! Really fun and tasty evening.

We loved this class! Chef Manjiri taught us a lot about spices in Indian cuisine and introduced us to several new cooking methods, and we took home several days worth of delicious curry, spiced rice, and more. Would highly recommend this class!

Chef Gustavo is AMAZING! We had the most wonderful night. Not only did we walk away with some cooking tips and tricks, the food was amazing. Chef Gustavo is kind, caring, and passionate about what he does, and shared so many wonderful stories about his life, how he got into cooking, and what food means to him! I cannot recommend this class enough. It was a perfect date night! I hope to take another course with him soon.

Our party of 6 had a great time learning how to make pasta from scratch. We were already good, long-time friends, but cooking together and eating what we cooked added something new and magical to our bond. Having Jordan as a chef was a blessing. He came well-prepared, brought all ingredients and cooking utensils. He walked us through the prep steps showing us and letting us try his techniques. The food at end was super delicious!

For our sonвЂ™s 16th Birthday we surprised him with a CozyMeal cooking class with Chef Andrea! For someone who truly enjoys cooking & learning, he had the absolute BEST time ever. Chef Andrea picked up on his joy and made this a fun learning experience guiding him through every part of our Asian themed 3-course dinner. In the end, not only was everything delicious AND there were left overs, but two weeks later, our son followed Chef AndreaвЂ™s steps to recreate the meal including the wonton soup! Thanks CozyMeal & Chef Andrea for a most memorable birthday for our son! WeвЂ™ll definitely be booking another culinary eveningвЂ¦ this time with our entire family and some friends!

We had a great night at Chef GustavoвЂ™s cozy apartment! He also has a great backyard area that we used to cook the paella over a wood fire! Gustavo is super knowledgeable and willing to share tips and answer any questions you might have. IвЂ™d highly recommend him and would love to take another class in the future!

Chef Manjiri was so amazing to work with and learn from! We learned so much about selecting the best ingredients for the dishes we prepared, how the different courses work together, and general information about Indian flavors. We loved getting to chat with Chef Manjiri and getting to learn more about her. Everything was fresh and one of the best parts ended up being how many leftovers we had! 10/10!! Cannot recommend Chef Manjiri enough!

I chose to take a class with chef Gustavo along with my partner for our anniversary. We both had a wonderful time. Chef's place was very cozy and immediately felt like home, which helped ease the unfamiliar feeling of going somewhere new. We were joined by two other people that came together and they were both wonderful people to meet during the evening. The food was fantastic, but the special part of the evening was the way chef Gustavo made the evening feel like a gathering of loved ones rather than a room full of strangers. We started off with some introductions and some safety tips before getting into the cooking. Once we began cooking the meal went along at a comfortable pace with chef Gustavo telling stories of his culinary journey to us as we enjoyed the food we all helped to prepare. I consider myself an intermediate home chef, and I learned a few things over the course of the evening, my partner is a little less experienced in the kitchen and she learned some things as well. What was impressive is that no matter your experience level, the environment was set so that everyone felt comfortable cooking and asking questions about what they were doing. I would say that the experience was like lightning in a bottle, but I have a feeling that chef Gustavo is good at making any group that goes into his kitchen feel happy to be there and excited to learn. Bottom line: I would absolutely book another experience with chef Gustavo, by all accounts everyone had a great time and the food was delicious. P.s. it may be a good idea to bring some Tupperware since there is a lot of food to eat (don't want to get too full after the first 2 courses)

Chef Manjiri made a special day perfect. SheвЂ™s extremely patient and her style of teaching the recipes is flawless. She was just the right amount of hands on. She gave room to freestyle some things as to create an individual feel to the recipes. Thank you so much for the opportunity to cook with you we would love to do it again.

The donut class was an AMAZING experience that I could not recommend highly enough! Chef Meg is hilarious and makes the class extremely engaging, and her dog Doug was an adorable sous-chef. I will certainly be back to take a class with her again!
