Simply the best dinner lesson experience I've ever had. Chef Nuncio is not only talented but also a great teacher. He took the time to explain the pasta making process in detail and gave us useful tips as well as teaching us a bit of history and geography. This is the complete package you guys! You will definitely learn and you will have a delicious professionally prepared meal at the end. We stated with a basic pasta dough that we kneaded by hand. While the dough rested we enjoyed a delicious fresh salad of greens, carrots, cucumber, and tomatoes just drizzled with aromatic olive oil. Brought back memories of vacations in Italy where we made salad from the veggies growing from our garden. We continued in our pasta making journey by rolling out the dough and passing it through the pasta roller. Chef also demonstrated how to make different shapes of pasta and the history behind them. We the watched him prepare our pasta dinner! This was the most challenging part...mouths were surely watering! We were served pappardelle with mushroom ragout, and ravioles stuffed with truffled ricotta. Everything was fresh tasting and delicious. I loved all the simple ingredients and the light natural flavors. Dessert was chocolate mousse with strawberries and fresh whipped cream! Heaven!! We all left with our very own pasta dough ...and I'm seriously considering practicing what I learned! This was such an amazing experience and I'm looking forward to trying something like this again. read more

Cozymeal is "AWESOME". What a great experience it was for me and maybe for the group that attended with me as well. The length of the class was about 2.5 hours of incredible Pasta making and Pasta filling and shaping. Chef for the class was Chef Nunzio from Naples, Italy. Chef Nunzio was simply amazing. He has great charisma and is extremely talented. He took the time to explain the process, to make contact with each one of us at the class and to guide you as needed. Who knew that making pasta would be so much fun. We made Papardelle from scratch with a mushroom ragu and also ravioli stuffed with truffle oil flavoured ricotta-parmesan mix. (This was heaven in a spoon) Also created a small salad appetizer to let the pasta dough rest after the knitting process, with a simple yet delicious citrus vinaigrette. Ohhhh.... it is a BYOB kind of a deal that I didn't know about... So feel free to bring a nice bottle of wine to drink and share as others kindly did since I didn't bring any. I highly recommend Cozymeal to anyone wanting to learn. The "how to" process is incredible. Can't wait to see what other classes are available to sign in. Thumbs up for the Cozymeal team and thanks for this great opportunity. PS: the location was beautiful and nicely decorated. read more

Wow, where should I start? With the amazing experience, the view, the class, the exclusive delightful service or the beyond delicious food we had?! Cozymeal along with the wonderful Chef Nunzio gave us a wonderful night were we learned how to cook pasta from scratch and I loved it because I have never done so. It was so nice to enter to the penthouse they rented for this event in Biscayne Boulevard here in Miami. The setting was simply PERFECT on a wooden table the plates, glasses and our aprons ready to eat and cook. Chef Nunzio besides been a spectacular host, he's an amazing teacher. He took his time to explain us step by step how to do the pasta. We also learned from him, the origins, the customs, the new and old ways how they really do it in Italy. While the pasta we each did had to rest for some minutes, we all enjoyed a fresh salad made with different ingredients like cucumber, arugula and my favorite: fennel. Chef and his assistant Luis served our food in the other side of our table and pour the wine for their guests since this is a BYOB kind of experience. Then we went back to cook and it was time to mold and create the pasta. He did all kinds from raviolis to angel hair as you can see in my pictures. The best part was the ricotta and four other cheese including pecorino that he added to the ravioli's filling. Fresh, smooth and scrumptiously delicious !!!! After, we moved to the counter and we were amazed by how Chef did the finishing touches of the pasta with the wild mushrooms,lots of butter, olive oil and wine. The smell was to die for but nothing compared with the taste. We went back to eat this wonderful pasta served by them and ten minutes later when we thought we were done they brought us what for me was The Best: the ricotta filled raviolis, a must try for sure!! Desert was a chocolate mouse with strawberries and whipped cream. Cozymeal experience was beyond I could have ever imagine. Thank you so much, I really appreciate your professionalism, dedication and I'm looking forward to my next one. Wow, por dónde debo comenzar? Con la increíble experiencia, la vista, la clase, el exclusivo servicio encantador o la deliciosa comida que tuvimos? Cozymeal junto con el maravilloso Chef Nunzio nos dieron una noche maravillosa, aprendimos a cocinar pasta desde cero y me encantó porque nunca lo he hecho. Fue muy agradable entrar al penthouse que alquilaron para este evento en Biscayne Boulevard aquí en Miami. El escenario era simplemente PERFECTO en una mesa de madera, los platos, vasos y nuestros delantales listos para comer y cocinar. El chef Nunzio además de ser un anfitrión espectacular, es un maestro increíble. Se tomó su tiempo para explicarnos paso a paso cómo hacer la pasta. También aprendimos de él, los orígenes, las costumbres, las formas nuevas y antiguas cómo lo hacen realmente en Italia. Mientras que la pasta que cada uno de nosotros hicimos tenia que descansar durante algunos minutos, todos disfrutamos de una ensalada fresca hecha con diferentes ingredientes como el pepino, la rúcula y mi favorito: el hinojo. El chef y su ayudante Luis sirvieron nuestra comida al otro lado de nuestra mesa y el vino para sus invitados ya que es un tipo de experiencia BYOB ( cada quien trae su propia bebida). Luego volvimos a cocinar y ya era hora de moldear y crear la pasta. Hizo todo tipo desde raviolis a cabello de ángel como puedes ver en mis fotos. La mejor parte fue la ricotta y otros cuatro quesos, incluido el pecorino, que añadió al relleno de los raviolis. Fresco, suave y deliciosamente sabroso! Después, nos trasladamos al tope de La Cocina y nos sorprendió cómo Chef hizo los toques finales de la pasta con los hongos silvestres, mucha mantequilla, aceite de oliva y vino. El olor era para morirse, pero nada comparado con el sabor. Volvimos a comer esta maravillosa pasta servida por ellos y diez minutos más tarde, cuando pensamos que habíamos terminado, nos trajeron lo que para mí fue lo mejor: los raviolis rellenos de ricotta, tienen que probarlo con seguridad! El postre fue un mouse de chocolate con fresas y crema batida. La experiencia de Cozymeal fue más allá de lo que podría imaginar. Muchas gracias, realmente aprecio su profesionalismo, dedicación y espero con ansia el próximo. read more

Extremely disappointed to find out our class was canceled with less than a weeks notice for the holidays. I was charged nearly $700 to secure an Italian style cooking class for my family of 7 and received the approval and even a message from the Chef. I have been planning this as surprise for my entire family, flying all the way from Hawaii to Ohio to surprise them with an activity we could all do together as a family for the holidays. It is rare that we are all able to get together, not to mention this was my Christmas gift to each of them as I like to gift experiences rather than things. Now it is too late of notice to schedule a class or activity elsewhere the weekend before Christmas. I could not be more crushed or disappointed. Cozymeal and Chef Stephanie at Sur La Table Crocker Park, you guys really let me down on this one.... Happy holidays read more

What a great experience! Cozy meal just made its way to south Florida and I'm so excited they have. We made homemade pasta with Chef Nunzio and couldn't have had a better time. They location was a beautiful penthouse with huge windows looking toward downtown Miami and and long custom wood family style dining table. Chef brought quality ingredients and supplies and walked us through every step teaching us a thing or two along the way. The end result was delish.. and though we mixed the flour, kneaded the dough, and even cut the noodles, Chef Nunzio gets the credit. He also served up some of the most delicious truffle ravioli I've ever gotten my hungry little hands on! + sent us home with some dough and noodles to experiment with on our own. I would definitely take another cooking class.. not because I want to be able to go home and make pasta like a pro, but for the experience. Definitely a great date night or group outing to do something besides just go to a restaurant. Tip- byow (bring your own wine) and maybe music read more

Chef Fernanda, AKA La Health Mexicana, is FANTASTIC. She's not only a great chef and a great teacher, but she also has the ability to make a group of strangers feel like a group of friends. I booked her in January of 2020 for a birthday. Two of the total six of us had never met before, but the environment Chef Fernanda created was so fun and welcoming that we had so much fun spending the evening all together. I learned a lot with Chef Fernanda about vegan baking and thoroughly enjoyed eating at the end of the night what we all made together. I highly recommend her to carnivores (which I am) and vegans alike. You will enjoy your experience with Chef Fernanda! She's great. Also, the booking process was simple. I could easily see which chefs were available when and see where in my city they were located. It made planning a birthday get-together easy. I highly recommend Cozymeal. read more

Absolutely do not recommend Cozymeal. I spent $400 for a cooking class with the expectation that my family and I would actually learn something from the experience. Instead we arrived at a home with everything already prepared and had to awkwardly pour everything into a bowl. The chef was supposed to give us a "gourmet seafood dinner", which consisted of cut up potatoes and salmon.. There was nothing gourmet about the entire experience. in fact, it was awkward and disorganized. If you're going to spend $100/person, just go to a culinarry class at a school.. they will actually ensure the class is even remotely up to par. I thought I would take a chance on Cozymeal because it's an interesting idea.. but without any checks or balances in place, you run a huge risk of wasting your money and have a good chance of getting a bad experience and wasting time and money. To be honest, I'm just disappointed. I did a LOT of research before purchasing through Cozymeal rather than a culinary school. I wanted this to work out but it just didn't. We did nott have wild expectations.. we just wanted to get hands on and learn something from our time with a professional chef. The fact that this wasn't even possible is really upsetting. read more

A cooking class was on my bucket list, and Cozymel was like a gift from heaven ! The location was great since it was a penthouse at a residential building in North Miami. Immediately, this takes the pressure out of the word "class" as it makes the experience very intimate and enjoyable. Even if you are Sharing the experience with people you never meet before, it becomes a friends gathering very quickly! A large farm like table is set up in the middle of the venue right on front an open kitchen, which makes the transition and movement from the kitchen to dinner very organic and fun. Chef Nunzio; that Italian dude rocks ! He has a great personality and would answer all our questions not only about technique but also history. Not only is he Italian, ( you know, where pasta is from), but he also trained for many years to become a pasta chef. We started the class by making a garden salad and we learned a few secrets to keep the greens crunchy and cut the veggies in the most perfect way with minimum effort (sorry guys, Can't share! You'll have to experience it yourself ). Then, Chef Nunzio shared his recipe for a home made citrus vinaigrette. We haven't even got to the pasta and we were winning already! Now, be prepared to get your hand dirty ! Remember that long table we talk about earlier? Well, there is a spot for you with all the ingredients and utensils you need to make your own past from scratch. Yep, you get your own 0-0 flower, mix that with eggs, semolina flower and then, give a firm massage to that dough. After Cher Nunzio has verified your work holds to real Italian standards, you will make it very flat using a pasta machine before it gets to be pan. Honestly, I learned a lot of things about the process of and the know how. It makes me respect and appreciate all the chefs and restaurants that take the time to make pasta in house just to keep the tradition and integrity of the flavor. Next thing you know, il cibo è pronto! (Food is ready). We sat, we laugh, had some wine and enjoyed the most wonderful pasta made by all of us. A group of strangers cook and dine together and shared their love for food while learning about its tradition and origin. What a great experience Cozymeal! Can't wait to be back. read more

I had the pleasure of attending a cooking class with the lovely Chef Anna! Her plant-based Italian 4-course meal included Watermelon Gazpacho, Raw Zucchini Lasagna, Cauliflower Risotto with wild mushrooms & a Raw Cheesecake for dessert. It was such a unique & special experience! Chef Anna is pure sunshine (as is her beautiful daughter, Ellie, who I met after our meal) and so much fun to work with. The hands on techniques & flavour combinations she taught my friend & I will stick with me for years to come. I always assumed that vegan cooking was out of my realm because of the vast ingredients necessary. Not so! All you really need is a food processor & some excellent ingredients. Once we finished our meal, we were seated on her penthouse balcony overlooking Biscayne Bay to enjoy. Chef Anna was so warm, friendly & knowledgeable. It was truly a treat & I look forward to attending another class soon! Bravo, Chef Anna! Bravo! read more

I have been to a few cooking classes, and none of them have compared to my interactive cooking class experience at Cozymeal. Chef Nunzio was passionate, friendly, and down to earth. The space was clean , airy and had wonderful views of the bay and downtown Miami. As you walk in you are immediately greeted with a beautifully decorated long farm table, lush hanging greenery, and an apron with each place setting. This experience is BYOB, so make sure to bring your own wine (or beer) ! Chef Nunzio started the meal by creating a nice garden salad with a homemade a citrus vinaigrette with oranges & lemons . This is one recipe I can't wait to try making at home. After the salad, we began the pasta making process by mixing the dough with our hands, rolling it, and flattening it. Chef explained each detail of the process and taught us different ways to cut & store fresh pasta. He also went around and checked the consistency of our dough to make sure it was perfect! We made a mushroom ragout & then watched the chef make us the most DELICIOUS truffle ricotta ravioli. The ravioli was hands down the BEST ravioli I've ever had in my entire life. We finished the dinner with a strawberry chocolate mousse. I enjoyed each course so much , and would gladly do it again with a group of friends or co-workers! Thanks for such a wonderful evening, Cozymeal! read more

We booked the Cozymeal cooking class for a group of 12. We enjoyed creating pasta in teams of three and Chef Nunzio was fantastic.

Chef John was informative, entertaining and he made the evening an incredible experience. To top it off his Mexican menu was amazing. My wife is vegan and he was able to adjust on the spot to satisfy us both. I recommend you give Chef John a chance, you will not be disappointed. read more

Cozymeal - Chef John is amazing. - Cooking Classes Near Me - Miami, Florida

Cozymeal was brought up to me a month or so ago, and to be honest i should have read the details more carefully because the words that registered in my head were "chef.... tasting....italian...food" 30 minutes before the event took place, i read the full message and realized this was a dining+cooking class experience. Pasta making more specifically. why does that matter? probably because i was wearing all black and going to a music festival later and was looking forward to explaining to a group of club bouncers why i'm covered in copious amount of white powder residue and sweating..... I was told it was BYOB, so knowing that wine is the typical thing to bring, i got a 12 pack of corona and headed up to the penthouse. good f---ing god.... this space is amazing. high rise, floor to ceiling windows, no buildings obstructing the sunset view, exposed brick, open lay out, and an unbelievable kitchen and dining area. seriously i had to stop fangirling over my dream apt and focus on the task at hand... eating. the class was set along this beautiful long repurposed wood table, with plants/vines draped over from the ceiling. one side was set for dinner, the other side was set up with 6 pasta stations on 1 side, and Chef Nunzio's station facing us. oh shit, this is kinda ling already and ive said nothing of the class, so here's a paragraph on each of the 3 parts that made the night. 1. Chef Nunzio is pretty dope. He's been in the US for a few years, comes from Italy, and spending any adequate amount of time with him you quickly realize his essence is food it self. He bleeds homemade sauce, sweats the pursest truffle oil, and breathes the purest passion that can be when it comes to the kitchen. Just a heads up- after 4 coronas his accent is tough to understand. BTW, i meant after i had 4 coronas, not him. 2. The class- it was great, not too long, not short, informative, easy to work through, and fun. we made a homemade dough, cut it into parpadelle (neither me or spellcheck know how to spell that right now), and then had a presentation on making ravioli, and a few others. I've been in love with food since i was a fat 3rd grader, and equally as much with being in the kitchen since i completed my application to FCI in NYC. i've read textbooks, watched youtube videos, etc to learn more and add to my skill set. But Chef Nunzio and this class taught me in one night what i have managed to miss most of life- take your time, have patience, and get it done correctly 3. Food..... i mean its fucking pasta. he's from italy. you obviously know it was amazing. they served us 2 dishes, one with the pasta we made, and one with the ravioli. the the first was with a mushroom reduction sauce. unbelievably simple and balanced. then he served us with the ravioli. TBH it came out and it could easily be mistaken for the kds menu option of cheese ravioli with butter sauce. ummmmm.... not the fucking case here. the "cheese" mike tysoned my mouth, and then the "butter" rope-a-doped my nose.... because it was truffle oil, not butter. alright, you got this far, i'm gonna end it abruptly. if you want to do a class like this or the opportunity arises, do it. or be proactive and book cozymeals. PS- if you're single this needs to be in your repertoire for dating. fun date idea, but take the class for yourself. can you imagine the face of your date if they walk in to see you serving homemade pasta?????? think about it. read more

This was a complete scam. We paid for a cooking class in Scottsdale and the address was in a not so good part of Phoenix. The house looked run down, there was no one there, and even if there was, it was not the experience we paid for. If you are in the Phoenix area, at least, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! read more

Phenomenal way to meet new people! This experience deserves every star. We arrived wondering how this class would be and even how the food would taste if we made it haha but i must say that making the pasta from scratch with an expert chef explaining in detail the whys and hows of pasta making was an incredible experience. Chef Nunzio from two chefs are better than one, was magnificent, funny, passionate and the class was organized with recipes, portions, utensils, and dinner reservations! We started out with a fresh salad and proceeded to Our main menu: FRESH PASTA!!! The class was s fun and engaging. We had truffle ricotta ravioli that were just exquisite. The filling was rich and had the perfect flavor. We all went home with fresh pasta dough! This is certainly a great idea for outings, corporate events, romantic dates and better yet, a great way to meet new people who enjoy food snd share a passion for local delicacies and small business. The service was superb and the attention to detail was also wonderful. Would definitely recommend this !! read more

It was definitely a surreal experience. From the moment we walked into the door until we parted our ways. Chef Nunzio and his assistant were truly exceptional. Once you step into this out of this world apartment you know this is going to be a great night. While we were waiting for the other participants to arrive we were able to get a glimpse of how amazing this PH is. From the location to the view, how the floor plan is well designed and all the details well thought from corner to corner. Chef Nunzio was amazing at explaining the whole process of Pasta making, not from just boiling it and obviously eating it, but how and why each step has to be made. The Pasta came out really and we were able to bring some home so we could make our special sauce for it. I will definitely recommend Cozymeal and Chef Nunzio to anyone wanting to have a special night. Thank you Cozymeal and Chef Nunzio. read more

My boyfriend and I took the plant based Italian course with Anna! It was delicious! She was so bubbly, helpful, and knowledgeable about being plant based. The recipes were nothing like what I could have made on my own at home! Can't wait to take another class. Thank you Anna and CozyMeal for a great date night! read more

My husband and I were looking for something to do on our anniversary, when we stumbled upon Chef Harold's menu, we knew it was a definitive match. We both love cooking together, so we figured this would be a unique experience plus give us a chance to learn some new foods. Let me just say I am SO thrilled we did it. Chef Harold's hospitality was beyond our expectations. He was incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and overall a kind human being. The actual brunch dishes we ended up putting together were delicious. Chef Harold taught us how to pair foods we wouldn't never have imagined and taught us tricks to do at home. Overall, the experience was wonderful and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to do it. Thank you read more

Great date night idea! I did a vegan cooking class through Cozymeal with Chef Fernanda, and the experience was an absolute blast! It also opened me up to the world of vegan cooking and how delicious it can be. If you're looking to do something fun with your partner, Cozymeal classes should be on the top of your list. read more

Chef Manuel was awesome! He is definitely an expert at his craft. He let us be as hands on as we wanted to be. I was genuinely interested in learning and so if I asked questions, he was super helpful with tips and explanations. We had a lot of fun and were amazed as well with the quality of the food! Also, his kitchen was stunning and cozy. The perfect place to learn how to cook--felt like a set on a cooking show! We definitely would look forward to another experience with Chef Manuel and we highly recommend him to anyone interested. read more

Wonderful experience. I can't wait to take another cooking class by Ayesha.

Very disappointing group experience. The group of 11 knew they were not going to a restaurant, rather a loft style location, but were underwhelmed upon arrival. During the cooking 'class' they did not get to participate much. They did one or two prep tasks and the chef did the rest of the work. This was intended to be their dinner, but they got three pieces of ravioli. read more
