Chef Laine was introduced to cooking by her mother and sister, both wonderful cooks in their own right. At age 11, she catered her first party of 40 guests, and she's been pursuing that passion for cooking ever since. Chef Laine held various positions for catering companies and high-end restaurants over the years, even spending time as a private chef and a professional baker. Her world travels have informed her repertoire, which she delights in sharing with others.

I booked Chef Laine for a surprise bday evening for a friend and some girls. My friend was surprised when she arrived at the house and then the next couple hours were so much fun! Already have plans to book this for my hubby and a couple of his friends. The recipes were delicious and will be easy to replicate. 5 stars!

For my wife''s birthday I set up the evening with Chef Laine, Well this turned out to be a spectacular evening. Chef Laine was engaging, thoughtful and extreamy informative on how to create the meal. She had a wealth of knowledge on other subjects relating to food from great hole in the wall restaurants to places to shop to different preperation techniques. This was a wonderful experience. Thanks Cozy Meals and Chef Laine

Chef Laine came into our home and prepared the most fabulous meal. The interaction with her through the evening and result of what she created for us was excellent.. I would highly recommend Laine to anyone looking to do something different and special for a romantic in-home experience or a group dinner of any sort vs the same old option of going out to restaurants… she was prompt, organized, engaging and efficient. All was cleaned up as promised and left with a smile! Tutti bene in una splendida serata romantica con cucina di prim’ordine! A wonderful evening, thanks so much Chef Laine . Tony & Roxanne

I bought this as a gift for my brother and his new wife and Chef Laine absolutely knocked this class out of the park for them. She went above and beyond to teach them techniques as well as, show them how to use different things because they are vegetarians. She made my brother's wife feel very comfortable with being in their home (I kept this a complete surprise to them) and was the perfect "host". Not only is she fantastic, but the food was amazing. They can't wait to host their own parties and teach their friends all the things they learned. Thank you again Chef Laine, you are so great!

What an experience!!!! Chef Laine was 12/10. I would highly recommend! So friendly, confident and knowledgeable, Chef Laine taught us the how to make dumplings, miso soup, sushi rolls, and ice cream all while making us laugh and enjoy the ride. Would hire her to make me breakfast, lunch and dinner if she’d let me. Will absolutely book again! -Steph

If you’re looking for amazing culinary skill made with love Chef Laine is the cream of the crop! From her knowledge of technical skills to vast styles of cooking nothing disappoints! Some of my absolute favs from her kitchen have been homemade soups, wild mushrooms beef with rice, coconut curries, delicious sourdough, and amazing island dishes to name a few. Laine has master the are of being both professional and warm and welcoming. I recommend her food and cooking classes to everyone.

We have been ordering bread and broth from Laine for quiet some time, and absolutely love her homemade with love approach to cooking and her kind hearted way of business. We fell even deeper in love with her meals when our family had our Thanksgiving meal catered by her. Full Turkey dinner with all the fixings but fancier then your moms! Gravy you will dream about for weeks and greens that blew my mind. Can’t wait for our next holiday to book with Laine.

short and sweet. When I eat Laine’s food, I know I am in the presence of a master chef just doing what comes naturally. Her way of making ordinary food extraordinary is such a gift. I’ve cried eating her pickles, I’ve sworn tasting her bo-sam, I’ve laughed out loud in disbelief at the pure deliciousness of her whipped feta. I could go on for days about her bread and how every piece of food she touches is transmuted into perfection and pure joy for my mouth and tummy. Blessed.

Up until the first time I ate Laine’s food, I could recall but a handful of times where food was so good it took over my senses and entranced me in deliciousness. I’ve worked in kitchens, eaten at fancy restaurants and have known many chefs as well, none of which have compared to Laine’s intuitive and lifelong talents for capturing flavor, elegance, and that wholesome feeling of an amazing home cooked meal. I’ve now shared countless moments of food ecstasy and have new found kitchen skills and unforgettable recipes thanks to Laine. She continues to challenge herself to learn authentic styles of cooking from various cultures while elevating the experience in ways only she can. Your heart and belly are in good hands with Laine.
