My husband and I usually love to come here for fresh produce and meats, but this time we decided to…read moretry something new. I came across a promotion for Longo's cooking classes and decided to give this a try. You can book the classes through the Longo's app, and they regularly have sales like $10 off per person or BOGO 50% off. The classes are sorted by age groups (kids, teens, parents and child, or adults) and offered as an interactive class (hands on cooking) vs. Demonstration (watching and taking notes). You will be very well fed during these classes so remember come hungry!

My boyfriend and I went to a Hands-on: Dim Sum Delights with Chef Florence Kwok last night at the…read moreLoblaws on Lower Jarvis Street. The class was 2 hours long and there was 10 other people with us. We made Pot Stickers, BBQ Pork Puffs, Sweet & Sour Wontons and Baked Shrimp with Sriracha Aioli sauce Chef Florence showed us how to make the filling for each dish and we got to rotate around four stations to wrap the pot stickers ( made with pork filling), bbq pork puffs, and wontons (made with pork filling). We also got to coat the shrimp in panko (Japanese bread crumbs) and put them on skewers. I liked that Florence asked us to rotate through all the stations so we got to learn how to cook each dish. After we finished cooking, we got to eat our creations and was provided with a glass of wine with the meal. You won't get full on this and will most likely need to eat before or after the class, but I enjoyed it because we learned some neat things! We paid $45 each for this class and found it to be worth it. Chef Florence was strict, but also funny. She used a blend of English and Chinese techniques to make and cook the food. For those of you that are vegetarians or cannot eat pork - this is NOT the class for you as pork was used in 3 out of 4 dishes!

My daughter was signed up for a 3-week stint at the Chef Upstairs. The cost worked out to…read more$100/class. Her friend from school was given a choice of just one class. When I called to inquire about the one class, I was told that wasn't an option. My daughter was sick for the 3rd session. I sent an email the night before she was going to miss the session. I heard no response, and when I called to inquire about a make up session, I was told "kids miss things when they are sick". I was also not offered any kind of reimbursement. I was given no options, and I'm now out $100. Pertaining to the actual classes, there is a lot of standing around for the kids. For the cost of the classes, the group should be smaller, or have more staff present. Avoid this place at all costs.

This review is for Chef Jeffrey's French Cooking Traditions private class at our home…read more Chef Jeff was wonderful! He guided us through a delicious French meal. He accommodated our preferences in advance and taught us how to make the perfect steak. We also loved learning ratatouille, pommes aligot, and chocolate mousse. Jeff is kind, fun, professional, and laid back - and made the experience joyful and comfortable. We particularly appreciated that he would clean up for us between courses while we got to savor the food. Highly recommend! Kudos to Cozymeal for making the whole process of finding a class, communicating with our chef, etc. seamless.

The basement is set up as a commercial type kitchen with plenty of room for a class of 10 people. Natalina is a very welcoming, friendly lady with lots of great tips (even for seasoned cooks!) and stories stories of her travels etc. She shared 3 recipes for focaccia, no knead ciabatta and a sweet no knead ciabatta with dried figs and cinnamon. The whole class got involved and we also had a lovely salad and we made pannini's with grilled chicken, basil pesto and provolone...lovely!!! We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and each other's company. Make sure you bring an LCBO paper bag to take home the hot bread! Classes sell out very quickly so you'd best get on her email list.

Very disappointed in the cooking classes at Applewood Longos…read more The instructor was very disorganized, one of the ovens was not working properly which delayed the cooking of the meal. There was not proper instruction on the prep of this dish. The registration was misleading. Our group thought each one of us would be making our own individual pan meal. Instead the class shared the prepared meal. Would not recommend this to any of my friends. I would recommend when offering these classes, instructors should have ALL ingredients, knives,cooking utensils ready for the students. There was time wasted on finding knives and hetting organized. Very disappointed.

It was incredibly hands-on, fun, informative and delicious! We worked in pairs, creating several recipes - step by step, with his help. We would highly recommend him for any in-home cooking class, or just having him come and in and cook for you! He was patient, funny and very knowledgeable, but the most important thing was his recipes, they were delicious. We all said there are several we will make at home. Thanks Chef Gabe, you created a memorable experience for all of us.

It's modern, extremely clean, organized, new equipment, beautiful floor to ceiling windows and bright lighting, and lots of space.

Overall, such a lovely experience I can't wait to go back to more classes.
