Booked the class Vegan French Cooking Class with Chef Maggie in San Francisco (Mission)
Maggie was so organized and prepared for our class. She taught us some great professional techniques, the meal was delicious and we have such a better understanding of vegan cooking techniques. By the end of class we were both flipping our own crepes!
Booked the class Crêpes & Soufflés with Chef Elham in San Jose (Northside)
I signed my dad and I up for the crepe and soufflé as a birthday experience. We had a great time and appreciated how simple Chef Elham made the whole thing. Would definitely recommend this to others!

Great time
Booked the class Vegan French Cooking Class with Chef Maggie in San Francisco (Outer Richmond)
Maggie was such a fantastic teacher and made amazingly flavorful food for us! I don't usually expect delicious Vegan European food, but this surpassed all my expectations. My favorite dish of the night was the ratatouille with each flavor note standing out beautifully and paired perfectly with a simple baked potato topped with hollandaise sauce. Yum! The best part was that all the dishes being so simple and healthy, are easily replicable any other time at home. We definitely learned a lot and cannot recommend her enough! Truly a wonderful birthday surprise!
Booked the class French Mother Sauces 101 with Chef Matt in San Jose (South San Jose)
What a great and informative experience. I've been cooking for over 60 years and I still learned heaps. I highly recommend Chef Matt.
Booked the class Traditional French Pastries with Chef Eric in San Francisco (Noe Valley)
This is an overdue review for an incredible time with Chef Eric! My boyfriend and I took his French Pastry class around Valentine's Day and it was such a great learning experience. Eric walked us through all the steps, showed us his techniques of making the perfect dough, and also sent us home with extra dough so we could make a second galette at home on our own. Overall, highly recommend Chef Eric and we're looking forward to taking more of his classes!

Amazing experience! Chef Dirk is one-of-a-kind, dynamic, funny, and knowledgeable. My husband and I had a fantastic time learning and cooking with Chef Dirk. We will definitely be looking for another experience with him in the near future!! Thank you Chef!!
Booked the class Crêpes & Soufflés with Chef Elham in San Jose (Northside)
Chef Elham was really well-organized and generous with her advice, even about cooking techniques that weren't explicitly related to the class. (For example, she gave really good tips on knife skills, pans to use, and other tips). I was impressed that the class got to do and learn so much.

Booked the class Exploring Creole French with Chef Veronica
A great experience! Chef Veronica did a great job preparing a tasty dish of blackened catfish with a papaya mango salad. Great conversation about her background, the food scene, and life in general! A fun and unique way to do a birthday!

Booked the class Mastery of Classic French Skills with Chef Aaron in East Bay (Prescott)
Chef Aaron welcomed us into his home and gave great instruction to my family and other Cozymealers attending the class. He taught us how to cook a delicious four course French meal. This was a phenomenal experience that we will remember for years to come. I’d highly recommend Aaron.

Aaron is awesome! The setup was perfect and he explained everything very clearly. We had so much fun and are already planning another class with him.
Booked the class Mastery of Classic French Skills with Chef Aaron in East Bay (Prescott)
Chef Aaron was so gracious and nice. I am a notoriously bad cook but he gave us tips and let us try techniques without being pretentious or making me feel like the total novice that I am. We did the French cooking class and I definitely think I can replicate at least some of the things we cooked at home now that I have done them once. Highly recommended!
Booked the class Sophisticated French Feast with Chef Dirk in San Francisco (Mission District)
My sister and I selected a cooking class for our Mom (who loves cooking) as a mother's day gift. We brought our cousin along and the four of us had a blast! Chef Dirk is so awesome. He's super engaging and hilarious. We learned so much and had a great time as well. The food was amazing and his home is beautiful! We had an incredibly fun and memorable evening! Thank you!!

Chef Dirk was a pleasure to work with! He was organized, enthusiastic and taught us a lot of tricks we wouldn’t have known otherwise! Customer support with Cozymeal specifically Sandrea and Rosario were amazing!
Booked the class Sophisticated French Feast with Chef Dirk in San Francisco (Mission District)
Chef Dirk was so gracious in inviting us into his home (which happens to be the most gorgeous home.) He ensured that our experience was amazing from the beginning. Every person got a turn on every aspect of the meal, and chef Dirk was so great about making sure this happened. He was very personable and had a great balance of sharing personal annnectodes while at the same time listening to those who were a part of the class! Lastly, the food was absolutley amazing. I felt like I walked out of the experience knowing more about cooking and feeling more confident in the kitchen! Would highly recommend.

I left another review for this same experience - but I had 2 reservations so I'm leaving 2 reviews! We had a great evening with Chef Dirk and I wholeheartedly recommend this as a great evening out!
Booked the class Sophisticated French Feast with Chef Dirk in San Francisco (Mission District)
Wow! We had an absolute blast with Dirk - an excellent evening out and much more interesting and engaging than just going out for dinner. The cooking class was advertised to be 3 hours but we ended up leaving staying and enjoying our food for another 90 minutes. Dirk was a pleasure to be with, we learned a bit about cooking, and we spent a lovely evening in his beautiful home. I am glad I did this and I look forward to the opportunity to do it again!
Booked the class Sophisticated French Feast with Chef Dirk in San Francisco (Eureka Valley)
We had an amazing class with Chef Dirk. Perfect for a team offsite. Chef Dirk was super energetic (and funny!) throughout the class. The food was delicious (+ we got great pointers on table setting and plating)! We had a few vegetarians in the group and he accommodated perfectly. This was the best part of our team offsite and would highly recommend.
Booked the class Crêpes & Soufflés with Chef Elham in San Jose (Northside)
Chef Elham has a gorgeous home and it was a great place for a cooking class. She has been teaching for sixteen years and has a wide range of styles and expertise to pull from. I loved her version of souffle which also was much easier to make than I had previously thought. I’d love to take another class from her.

Booked the class Vegan French Cooking Class with Chef Maggie in South Bay & Peninsula (Sunnyvale)
What a fabulous experience we had with Chef Maggie! She made everything so fun and accessible, and was very accommodating. We learned some new skills and enjoyed a delicious vegan meal, that even my die hard meat eating father was still talking about the next day! Thank you, Chef Maggie!

Booked the class Vegan French Cooking Class with Chef Maggie in Marin County (Mill Valley)
Chef Maggie was AMAZING! We had such a fantastic time with her at our home. The food was incredible, and we learned so much—from chopping techniques to vegan cooking tips and even creative ways to use leftovers. Speaking of which, we have so many leftovers and can’t wait to enjoy them tomorrow when we’re not as full! Maggie came fully prepared with everything needed for the class, making the experience seamless. She was organized, engaging, and an absolute joy to chat with. We had so much fun learning from her, and I can’t wait to book with her again! Thank you, Maggie!
Booked the class French Winter Feast - Date Night with Chef Andrea in South Bay & Peninsula (Palo Alto)
The class was excellent. Both in terms of how clear and easy to follow the instructions were, value for money and how well the recipes turned out. Yes, I know that in this age and times, you have plenty of resources to learn anything, especially cooking, but nothing beats the experience of doing it by yourself, handling the ingredients, mixing up things and creating an Instagram worthy, restaurant quality masterpiece. Chef Shameem (I hope I am not mixing up her name) was excellent with her clear instructions and also kept a watchful eye on everyone to make sure the fine line between a great creation and also-ran is not crossed. Overall experience: Great!
Booked the class Vegan French Cooking Class with Chef Maggie in San Francisco (Mission)
We loved Chef Maggie’s vegan French cooking class. Despite having taken other cooking classes in the past, we learned new knife skills techniques and facts related to the meal from Maggie. She’s a delight to be around and we had fun cooking with her. We particularly appreciated how she set us up for success: focusing our efforts on chopping and tasting for balance, while explaining her cooking technique along the way. The meal was absolutely delicious. We are excited to make it again with her instruction in mind.

She came prepared and quickly responded to questions leading up to the dinner. I would highly recommend Chef Maggie. She's awesome!

Chef Dirk was excellent. A very personable and relatable chef.
Booked the class Sophisticated French Feast with Chef Dirk in San Francisco (Mission District)
Chef Dirk was great! The menu was new and interesting, not something I have prepared before. Chef gave good instruction, used really fresh ingredients and used a lot of nice herbs and spices. He was very accommodating to allergies, and really went out of his way to make that work for my son. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was the venue. It was really situated best for 4 guests, but we had 6. 2 people had to sit by themselves in the kitchen, and 4 on the other side of the kitchen. Parking in the immediate area is also very difficult. I left chef a cash tip, that is the only reason I am not adding additional tip here.
