Chef Wayne truly created a remarkable meal for 8 of us. Everything and I mean "everything"was exceptional. He and his server were prompt, courteous and start to finish outstanding. We literally had to do nothing from cocktails to dessert except enjoy shrimp cocktail, French onion soup fondue, Caesar salad, beef tenderloin, potatoes au gratin, green beans, and apple pie a la mode. Thank you Wayne and Tanya!!

Tri Tip cooked perfectly, au gratin potatoes and grilled asparagus made the perfect birthday meal!

I planned a weekend in Palm Springs for my 50th birthday and thought I'd hire a private chef for one of the nights. Looking on Yelp there were not a lot of options which surprised me for a city like PS. At any rate, I discovered Chef Wayne and I'm glad that I did! His website was very easy to navigate and all of his services were outlined specifically and there were tons of menu options to choose from. We worked together on a menu and when he arrived, he was professional, timely and organized. Our 3 course meal was reasonably priced given the amount of food served, the service of the chef and the clean up. Chef Wayne integrated himself into our group in a casual way without being aggressive. We enjoyed his company. Next time in PS, I will def be calling him again! Thank you Chef Wayne!

Chef Luana's pasta making class was amazing…read more Best cooking class experience I've had - great instructor, plenty of hands-on experience, and the best pasta I've ever tasted. Chef Luana is incredibly experienced, and it shows. We made fresh fettuccine and spaghetti pasta. And it's not your average fettuccine and spaghetti. Trust me. It blew my mind. If you want to learn how to make fresh delicious pasta from an Italian chef who has mastered her craft, I highly recommend taking her class.

Wow my friends have been telling me to try Cozymeal, hopefully this is isolated to Palm Springs but…read moreSTAY AWAY FROM THEM AND CHEF JESUS. Jesus (doesn't deserve the chef moniker) was supposed to be providing a cooking with friends experience. Spoiler Alert! It did NOT happen. To start this off leading up to the event he tried to switch the time and date multiple times but we had a fixed time and date we needed. Eventually we agreed to push up the event by two hours as an accommodation for him but at the new time agreed upon he didn't even show up we had to call him and he said sorry about that but he would be providing a private chef situation as a treat for my sisters birthday and arrived instead at the original time. When he arrived he was complaining about my sisters peanut allergy and how it was so hard. I realize now he was doing this because he was trying to make excuses for changing a menu for no reason. Nothing in the menu needed to be changed except changing the type of oil needed. He said ladies I want you to "relax" and I will cook for you. He NEEDED to say this because what he was about to serve us was a bunch of premade frozen foods from the bargain aisle of Albertsons. No joke. More on that later. So we say fine and jump into a game of charades. My sisters microwave has a sticky button and if you are unfamiliar with how to press it you can't open it. we all heard him fumble with the microwave and then give up deciding to fry up the frozen egg rolls he was going to serve us. When the egg rolls are served he plops some condiments and says here you go. There's like 30 egg rolls some of which are cold on the inside. In my mind that's near confirmation that they are frozen. Next up the main course. It was supposed to be sea bass but instead it was rockfish. Like for real bro?? This experience was expensive and you serve rock fish? It's rude. And the rock fish was literally just sautéed with a bunch of pepper. It was inedible. I did not eat it. The side was rice well actually it was supposed to be a jook but I personally don't think he knows what that is. It was both mushy and crunchy clearly Jesus can't ascertain portion size. Last up was mochi. I mean it was just like mango mochi from the frozen section. Which I mean is alright but the original menu was for us to have black sesame ice cream so that's just so different. For $130 a person this "meal" was not acceptable. So we told Jesus and he vowed to make it right. We said okay and he left. We went through the trash and suspicions were confirmed. Discounted egg rolls from the frozen food aisle and rock fish $20 for the party. This guy is not a chef he's a reheating technician. The one thing that required chef skills was butchered so bad I couldn't eat it and was left hungry and bewildered. So surely when we message Cozymeals about this they will refund us right? Nope! They said he had to change the menu because of the peanut allergy. But does that mean you have to downgrade the protein and serve us frozen foods too? Jesus tried to say that we were intoxicated and that's why we couldn't do the cooking experience we hadn't had a drink prior to his arrival but how could we do any experience when it's all FROZEN. would he have been getting advice on how many seconds you need to put the egg rolls in the microwave?? Like be for real. Jesus is a scammer. And evidently cozymeals is eating it up lmaooooo Get this his new menu is based off all the frozen stuff he made for us so I guess he is covering his bases with his swindle projects he plans to continue. So just keep in mind it seems cozy meals is fine charging you $130 a person to eat Super Bowl snacks.

I met Chef Jade at a neighbor's dinner party and loved her friendliness and her tasty food. A month…read morelater I contacted her to help me with my own dinner party. She provided many options and themes for the menu--it was hard to choose because I wanted to try everything on the menu! Some of our dinner guests had dietary preferences/restrictions and Chef Jade was able to accommodate them with no problem! She communicated well and followed up to confirm the menu and details in a timely manner. On the night of the dinner, her food was well prepared and delicious! I appreciated her professionalism and friendliness while serving during the dinner party. It was relaxing to have someone provide a scrumptious dinner in the comfort of our own home! I will be having Chef Jade help us again in the future!

I reserved and paid for a sushi making class for myself and my husband to celebrate his birthday…read more When we went to the store front the day of the class, everything was closed. We called the number on the reservation and Chef Jade answered saying that she'd forgotten about the class and had just left the area. She didn't offer to turn around, and we just asked for a refund instead. She said that she would reimburse my money through Zelle. It has now been 5 months, we've called her a handful of times to remind her, and she claims to have reimbursed, and that she'll double check. After a while she just stopped answering our calls and wouldn't return our voicemails. To this day we've not seen our $100.

I'd like to think I'm hipper than the hippest person out there... but I'm honest enough to admit…read moreI'm not anymore. I used to be deeply plugged into the fashion world. I wasn't just following trends, I was ahead of them. I wore things before they hit, before they made sense to anyone else. That takes effort, instinct, and money. It's a different kind of life. And unless you're in it every single day, on the creative or design side, you slowly lose touch with what's emerging now. Walking into Mojave Flea Trading Post brought all of that back in a very real way. I feel completely comfortable in a space like this, but it also reminds me of a version of myself that used to help shape what people wore. There's a quiet nostalgia to it. Not regret, just awareness. I don't need to be that person anymore. Now I care about different things. I look for natural fabrics like 100% cotton and linen, pieces that breathe, pieces that feel good on your skin and don't come with all the hidden downsides. And this store delivers on that. There are racks of thoughtfully curated items that feel both current and wearable, coming from new designers who are clearly paying attention. It's not just clothing. It's a point of view. And what makes it even better is the space itself. There's a matcha spot and a small food area tucked into the back where you can sit, slow down, and just enjoy being there. It turns a shopping trip into something more like an experience. This is a genuinely great addition to Palm Springs. The kind of place that gives the city a little more edge, a little more relevance. Palm Springs is lucky to have it.

Unexpected but very cute! Randomly added this to my must try list when visiting Palm Springs and…read moreglad I stopped by. Very cute and creative shopping space with many hidden gems! A little expensive, but enjoyed looking thru the beautiful pieces and creative space.
