Chef Burcu’s class was so organized. When we arrived, everything was ready for us. She explained the process, gave helpful hints, and tips. She provided a relaxed and interactive environment to have fun, chat with the others, and learn a new dish. Of course, sitting down to a nice meal at the end of the session was the best part. I highly recommend her whether you are a beginner or a practiced cook.

Chef Burcu is highly skilled, knowledgeable and *patient* as she led us through the steps of making this delicious three course meal. The bulk of the time is spent making the ravioli pasta, which I’ve never done before and am now inspired to try on my own. The final meal was so delicious, we are stuffed to the gills. Thank you for inviting us into your home for a lovely evening. I would definitely recommend this class for a “date night” or small group of friends.

Chef Burcu is not only very technically skilled in the kitchen, but she is also an excellent teacher who goes above and beyond to answer questions and demonstrate difficult cooking techniques.

My husband and I had an amazing experience with Chef Burcu! She was a great teacher and an excellent host. We were blown away by how delicious and impressive the meal was in the end. Chef Burcu was very patient and attentive and gave us great tips on each of the three courses, so we were able to re-create the meal on our own weeks later. At the end of the night, we loved the unexpected and special touch of being served the three-course meal that we'd prepared with Chef Burcu in a private dining area. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish, and we'll definitely be signing up for another Cozymeal with Chef Burcu in the future.

Chef Burcu was a talented chef and we enjoyed our meal however this experience was less hands on than we expected and the space felt a little tight. We appreciate the tips and tricks that we learned but were only really involved in the ravioli making. It was tasty and we appreciated the hard work that went into the meal by the chef.

The meal was very good. It was nice to see the demonstration when preparing the meal as well as relaxing. The kitchen was left clean and she even let one of the kids help out at making the gnocchi. I would definitely recommend.

Wow what an incredible meal! We have leftovers to enjoy today too. As the other reviews said best baklava ever, home made and fresh fresh fresh. The food and service was impeccable. This wonderful lady is going places and I can't wait to see what she does in the future. We'll definitely be trying out her classes, which is not something I was interested in before.

We had the best experience with Chef Burcu last evening in the kitchen of her lovely cafe. For our first cooking class ever, she was patient and guided us through every step of the Parisian meal. She answered our questions and knew a great deal about food. She was very personable and friendly and even offered for us to bring extra food home after our meal. It was a fantastic experience from beginning to end - through hands-on cooking, demonstration and enjoying the meal afterwards. Thank you for an excellent class, we will certainly book with her again!

We recently had the pleasure of attending a team-building cooking class, and it was an amazing experience! Chef Burcu was outstanding – not only incredibly skilled but also exceptionally patient and personable. she made the entire session fun and engaging, ensuring everyone felt involved and capable, regardless of their cooking experience.
The food we prepared under the chef's guidance was phenomenal. Every dish turned out delicious, and we left with both full stomachs and new culinary skills. The chef’s ability to balance teaching, coaching, and fostering a relaxed atmosphere was truly impressive.
It was the perfect blend of teamwork, learning, and enjoyment. If you’re looking for a unique and memorable activity, I highly recommend this experience. A huge thank you to Chef Burcu for making it such a fantastic day!

A great evening with a talented chef, with a world of knowledge. The menu was delicious, and the pasta making was very hands on. We ended up enjoying a wonderful meal at the end, and learned a lot! I would say though that the class is less hands on than I thought, as the pasta itself was the only portion of the meal that we had made. But we were able to observe, and were taught the steps plus more details about the rest of the meal. Thank you Chef Burcu :)
Lisa

Chef Burcu was very nice! My daughter and I felt very comfortable with her. We had a great time with all the hands on preparation.
We found it was a lot of food and my only critic was maybe to have offered for us to take the leftovers of our meal home as we made personal size lasagnas and only had half. Other than that everything was great and every dish was amazing! My daughter and I are excited to make fresh pasta at home now.

We recently had the pleasure of a private session with chef Burcu, and it was an unforgettable culinary journey. The pasta-making was a hands-on delight, the minestrone soup was bursting with flavor, and the lasagna was genuinely out of this world. The casual atmosphere created the perfect backdrop for a great time. Highly recommend chef Burcu for an incredible and personalized dining experience!

Chef Burcu presented a wonderful evening. She had the ingredients prepped before we got there, and demonstrated the main courses for us: soup, beef stew and eggplant in a creamy sauce. We were hands-on for the salad prep, and the tahini walnut dessert.
The salad and dessert were simple and delicious. The pomegranate dressing was amazing - I'll definitely add those to our regular repertoire! It was very interesting to see the eggplant prep, and we were hands-on for some of this part. I'm keen to try it out at home - it was really delicious, and seeing it up close it I'm confident we'll be able to repeat the process.
Chef Burcu was well organized and professional. The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant, and the meal was fantastic!

I came into this experience with no expectations and Chef Burcu left me amazed. She takes the time to explain everything before you begin and allows you to be as involved as you want. I recommend taking a hands on approach to the class so you can really take it in. Ive seen other cooking classes and they seem to be in larger groups this one was much better because its just your guest and the chef in a private kitchen.
The meal was by far one of the best i've had in years, each course was full of flavors tasted so fresh with the authentic turkish ingredients she provides. I got to try at least 5 new ingredients that added so much flavor to the meal. Chef Burcu is extremely easy going which makes the experience so much more enjoyable, she really did her best to make us feel comfortable in her kitchen.
I highly recommend booking a class with her, the food on its own is better than any meal you'll get in Ottawa. The experience is an amazing memory you wont regret.

My partner and I had an excellent time learning from Chef Burcu! The menu was extraordinarily put together and all of the dishes were extremely tasty. I was particularly fond of the red lentil soup and my partner loved the beef stew with aubergine. We will definitely be making those recipes again with the handy recipes she provided. Chef Burcu made us feel very welcomed into her exceptionally clean and inviting home and even offered us aprons to wear during our cooking lesson. We learned proper chopping techniques and assisted with the food preparation. Chef Burcu served us dinner and offered us Turkish coffee which was delightful. She even surprised us with a cake that said “happy 5th anniversary” which made my partner and I feel extra special on our special day. Overall, cooking with Chef Burcu was a wonderful experience that my partner and I will fondly remember and will recommend to friends and family and any other lovers of food/cooking!
