I absolutely loved my class at the Gourmandise School! We started out at the farmers market, picked…read moreout fresh ingredients, and then went back to the kitchen and turned everything into a delicious meal. It was such a fun and unique way to learn, and I loved how hands-on the whole experience was. The instructors were so knowledgeable, friendly, and really made the class enjoyable. I learned a ton and left feeling inspired to cook more at home. Honestly, I think Gourmandise is the best cooking school in town and I highly recommend taking a class here. Such a fun experience!

My wife and I recently took a class here called "Date Night: Spanish Tapas." The class taught us…read morehow to make several Spanish dishes including Spinach and Manchego Croquetas, Pan Con Tomate and Jamon Serrano, Tortilla Espagnola, and Pork Belly with Membrino Glaze. I'll be completely honest. I was not excited about taking this class. I hate cooking food as much as I love eating it. But the wife dragged me out here anyway. So what's my verdict? As my rating indicates, I was completely wrong about this class. It was a fun experience from start to finish. Chef May did a fantastic job walking us through how to prepare each dish before releasing us to our own individual stations, easing my concern that I would screw things up. When we needed any assistance, she was right there to jump in and provide support. I would be amiss if I didn't mention the best part of the class which is eating the food we made. Every dish was delicious. I especially loved the Pan Con Tomate and Jamon Serrano, and Pork Belly with Membrino Glaze. I would definitely recommend taking a class here. If they could make a guy like me who hates cooking enjoy the experience, they must be doing something right. We'll be back very soon for an encore. We're signed up for the Pan Pizza class. Looking forward to it!

I started taking classes with Joanna after never really getting into cooking and was kind of…read moreworried that I would never do it well. Joanna walked me through the process top to bottom, teaching me to source ingredients, what to have in your kitchen, etiquette and the recipes and food themselves. She has a been a huge help in my personal development and glad to have experienced her classes, all the recipes area amazing and the food was so good! I still make the pizzas she taught me almost 6 months later. I'm walking away from experience wiser and excited to cook. You will not regret taking a chance and learning from her!

She is always open to suggestions and loves to work with different people to learn new things. I cook with Chef Joanna on her Instagram show and she has this passion and energy for food and the history of foods that is unlike anyone else I have ever met.

No matter what occasion you might be wanting to celebrate, Chef Joanna can help make the time cooking with her unique and personalized to you.

We took Chef Francesca's Italian Steakhouse class and needless to say, we'll definitely be back. the food was absolutely delicious and Chef Francesca's was so patient and kind. I am personally not the most experienced cook and she made me feel like I was an expert in the kitchen. We even had leftovers to take home for the next day. I love how simple she made everything and a bonus is she sent us home with the recipes and suggestions on where to get the ingredients if we wanted to recreate the meal again at home. Definitely recommend Cozy Meal for a fun date night adventure. And especially Chef Francesca's class!

There are only a handful of places to take private cooking classes and there were only a couple available to teach us. I found another place through this cozymeal, and they were able to find me a chef but I had no clue where we'd be (location wise - kitchen, house..). I just couldn't trust that we'd be in a location as cute as La Cuisine. So I decided to book with them since Yelp has such cute pictures of the inside.. my only worry was the very few reviews. But I took that chance and when we arrived everything looked exactly what people posted on here..but even cuter! Chef Paru & Sophia were so welcoming and per the group - they were both attentive but also giving us enough space to try on our own. Also, didn't realize my cutting technique was wrong until taking this class haha! I rarely cook, but now I know going forward! I'd definitely recommend this place if you're looking for great instruction and something a somewhat intimate vibes and not within a standard industrial kitchen. GF & Instagram friendly lol Thanks Chef Paru & Sophia!

"In a city where few things live up to their notices, Chef Leslie's Sublime Cuisine exceeds all…read moreexpectations. Having been introduced to her services by a very demanding colleague, I've come to depend on her for everything from simple home meals to catered business gatherings to festive parties. She handles all with equal skill and imagination. Having lived and worked in some of the dining capitals of the world, she brings consistently impressive versatility to her wide-ranging menus. Fancy an omakase you'd hope for in the best local Japanese restaurants? Chef Leslie serves up everything from delectable organic cha soba salad to the freshest sashimi to simple Japanese comfort food like yakitori, all consistently excellent. For paella this good I'd have to recommend a trip to Barcelona. You're not going to find Catalan tomato bread closer to home. Need to leave a roomful of clients with a favorable impression? Serve them up memorable mini caviar pies (a personal favorite) and pork sliders. Ever tried Thai bouillabaisse with mussels, prawns and calamari? You owe it to yourself. Staging a Casablanca-themed get-together? Chef Leslie's Tagine of Chicken with preserved lemons is better than anything you'll get at Rick's Cafe short of a kiss from Ingrid Bergman and a rendition of "As Time Goes By." Not only are these meals consistently scrumptious, they're also healthy, featuring the freshest, highest-quality ingredients in mindful preparations that nourish body and soul with equal passion. The same philosophy dictating that what you eat should be a delight to the tastebuds is evident in the beauty of each dish's presentation. Every dish put before you looks as good as it tastes and tastes as good as it looks. In short, Chef Leslie delivers what her company's name promises: a sublime culinary experience."

I appreciate people like Chef Christine because she has a unique vegan perspective on cooking and food. She's all about creativity in the kitchen and not compromising in taste while cooking healthy.

Now whenever I go to the market, I'm on the lookout for healthier alternatives and green veggies I haven't tried before. And may I also add she's a fantastic baker?

My husband and I took part in a date night cooking night with two other couples and we had a blast. Chef Jesse was delightful, funny, and informative. We learned how to make gnocchi, a tasty sauce, enjoyed the signature violet cocktail and THE BEST tiramisu I have ever tasted. You can be as hands-on as you wish. Chef Jesse had a few demonstrations, we enjoyed a few extra surprises from the main restaurant kitchen and once all was prepared we sat down at a communal table to feast on the food. And we went home with some leftovers. The cooking school is definitely the loveliest looking school as well located above the courtyard of the main restaurant. We've already booked our next date night.
