Freda's Kitchen - Iron Chef Review…read more We engaged Ashley and her team to create an Iron Chef style event for our family of fifteen ages 5-84 over the holidays. They did an absolutely incredible job! Ashley made sure every detail was taken care of and coordinated the entire event flawlessly. Ashley's team members (Kyle, Kristin, Holly and Chef Uyen Pham) were all exceptionally professional and they ensured it was a wonderful experience for everyone involved. Although the final results are still under protest (just kidding). We highly recommend Freda's Kitchen for anyone looking for something different whether it be a team building or in our case a family event. We also held it at Wilson's Appliance in Dripping Springs who were gracious in allowing to use their top of line equipment in their model kitchens.

My friends and I did a cooking class here and had a great time. Our chef and her assistant were…read morereally friendly and down-to-earth, and they gave an introduction letting us know about their business and why they started it, which gave some meaning to what we were doing. The space where we ate was gorgeous and felt like we were dining in someone's beautiful home. Half our group was running late (30 minutes!) due to the marathon closing off some roads, and they still gave us our full experience. FYI, it is BYO here! If we had known earlier, we would have brought our own additional drinks, but they did serve us wine. The kitchen was a little cramped for 14 of us, and compared to other cooking classes I've done, it was a little ad-hoc getting everyone organized. They didn't have a pre-set number of people for each station, and with only 2 staff, they were stretched a little thin helping everyone. It all worked out, but it was a little slow figuring out who would do what, with rough last minute estimates on how many people were needed at each spot. Still, our food was great, we all learned some new kitchen skills (though the chef did help us quite a bit to get us there!), and we had a fun time! There were tons of leftovers too.

Chef Lida is a very versatile and an amazing Chef instructor or mentor. I have learned a lot from…read moreher since my cooking skills were very basics. I have a hobby and a deep appreciation for fine dinning and good meals so I am able to recognize a good dish when I try it. The taste of every single dish that I prepared under Chef Lida's supervision amazed me!. No matter the cuisine style that we prepare Italian, American, French - the taste of the meal was always outstanding. I have learned from her Chef's secrets to make a dish go from good to superb. She is an amazing Chef and she explains every step of the meal preparation and gives you great tips and recommendations. She is a very energetic, positive, amicable person. And above all she is passionate about creating delicious, healthy, and good looking food. I would recommend her to anyone that would like to improve her/his cooking skills or to anyone that would have a personal celebration and would like to make that event special for everyone. She will prepare the best menu and she will go above and beyond to meet your guests needs. Patricia González

We arranged Chef Danushka in Austin, TX through Cozymeal. We had a great cooking class and really…read moreenjoyed our time with the chef. Chef Danushka is a character and really made the experience fun. Her classes are offered at her house which has a great kitchen and entertaining space. We did a southwestern grill menu. We all got to participate in the making of the meal with different tasks - cutting up veggies, making guacamole and elote corn, grilling the meat, cutting the meat, etc. You can bring your own wine and beer to her classes which we did. We was very accommodating with glasses. Overall the class was fun, the food was delicious and we had a good time. Definitely recommend Chef Danushka.

I tried using the website to find a private chef for a cooking class locally. We were excited to…read morebook our experience and looking forward to the class. Then, 24 hours before the class, the chef updated the posting to notify attendees that the class would be run by Sur La Table. We have been to a class by Sur La Table and it was so bad we left 30 minutes into the class. I contacted CozyMeal to let them know about the bait & switch, and talked to them on chat. They refused to help. I have tried calling them, and they have not answered. This company is an absolute sham and only wants to take your money and run.

We loved working together to make a delicious herbed fettuccine. I feel like we learned everything we need to know to be able to replicate the dish at home. I also loved the location. We enjoyed a nice glass of Cabernet from Gourmage while we cooked, and while we ate the pasta we created. Nicole and Stephanie made the experience easy and enjoyable for everyone. I can't wait to do another class there.

Our menu consisted of: Salad w/ Creamy Vinaigrette Pecorino and Chive Risotto Chicken Picatta Crème Brûlée We had a great time learning how to mince the proper way, why we mix olive oil and butter for frying and how chicken is cooked for piccata. She managed to do this with limited space and I must say, we had an enjoyable time working together! Thanks, Chef Nicole!

My husband and I have been using Modern Cupboard's personal chef services for almost 10 months now…read more Vanessa is great, she took all of our dietary restrictions into account and makes some really really yummy meals. We were people who ordered out every meal and ate frozen meals for lunch each day. Now we have fresh food delivered each week and it's so easy to reheat. All the back and forth (and drama) that came with dinner time is gone. On top of that, the meals she makes for us are healthy and diverse from week to week so I don't get sick of it (like when we did Snap kitchen). Cannot say enough great things about the Modern Cupboard and Vanessa.

I love this store and shop here often. Three stars on this visit for one simple reason. The fellow…read morethat waited on me behind the meat counter was grumpy, borderline, rude, unfriendly, and clearly did not want to be working today. Really a turn off the reason I didn't give a one star is because the fellow behind the deli counter was delightfully, friendly, and is much more typical of the people that you encounter working at this wonderful grocery store. I should've taken down the grumpy fellows name or taken his picture. Truly a downer. As for the store, the produce section continues to be fantastic, the deli counter has a great array of choices, and overall it's just a great place to shop!

This was my second time going to a cheese tasting at Antonelli's. It was a beautiful night and so…read moremuch fun! You sit at long tables with other people in your party or just other people who live for cheese.

For the cheese tasting: There was LOTS of cheese! They give you your entire cheese tasting plate at…read morethe beginning and then slowly walk you through the tastings 2-3 at a time. The entire experience lasts about 90 minutes, and they did start a few minutes late. They did a good job describing the cheeses, the other paired snacks, and the wine pairings. They also did a good job choosing a good variety of cheeses and giving good pairings. The table crackers are refilled throughout the tasting, but nothing else on the cheese plate is refilled. The setup was not quite what I expected. There are six tables that seat ~six people, so you're going to be sitting with strangers. You start by going around the room and introducing yourself and your favorite cheese, basically as an ice breaker to meet everyone there. It was a little noisy and not intimate for a 2-person outing. It felt much more like a social gathering, and I think it would be better as a friend meeting, group gathering, or even a team-building activity. It's also a good way to meet strangers if that's what you're looking for. You get a discount on in-store purchases, which is a nice bonus. You can also take your leftovers home, so don't feel compelled to eat the entire plate like I did! The only other issue was that cashing out took a long time at the end because their POS system wasn't working well.
