As for the skills you’ll learn, they really depend on the class you choose to take. More complex classes will focus on one or two dishes, while others will see you rustle up a show-stopping multi-course feast. In any case, you’ll be able to pick your chef’s brain, learning their most closely-guarded culinary secrets and learning interesting facts about your chosen cuisine. You’ll also get to sit at the end with your classmates, reflecting on the session and sharing a luxury meal of your own making.

What cooking techniques and skills will I master?

This depends on your chosen experience. More complex cooking classes might focus on one or two dishes, while others will see you rustling up a multi-course feast. In general, most classes will help you to sharpen fundamental skills like knife-handling, kitchen safety and ingredient preparation. Further to those, you’ll learn skills that are specific to your chosen cuisine. Pasta making classes, for example, will involve rolling, shaping and filling fresh dough and making sauces to pair with it. Similarly, if you sign up for sushi classes, you can expect to get hands-on with the authentic ingredients and traditional techniques required to master your favorite sushi rolls.

What are the benefits of taking a cooking class?

Cooking lessons come with a whole host of exciting and delicious benefits. The first and most obvious is learning how to prepare delicious new cuisines from around the world and unlocking impressive new kitchen skills. The second is doing so with help from a world-class chef, learning their most closely-guarded trade secrets and gaining fascinating insights into the world of food culture. Another benefit is sharing all of the above with your friends, family or colleagues. Together, you’ll forge unforgettable foodie memories over the joy of learning something new. Memories that will last long after you’ve finished the final course.

What types of cooking classes can I choose from?

There are cooking experiences to suit absolutely everybody. There’s an exciting array of cuisines to choose from, including sushi, pasta, French bistro and more. And it doesn’t matter how experienced you are. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, you’re sure to find the ideal challenge to help level up your cooking. All sessions benefit from the guidance of a renowned local chef who knows what it takes to prepare world-class cuisine. More than that, they know what it takes to teach you to do the same in your home kitchen.

Where do the classes take place?

Sign up for one of the city’s top cooking classes and you’ll get to choose exactly where it’s hosted. For example, if you want to learn at the chef’s table, you’ll find lots of chefs across the city just waiting to welcome curious culinarians into their home kitchens. Just consult the map on your preferred experience page to see where the host is based. Alternatively, you could choose to host the class at your home or vacation rental. All that’s required to do so is a clean and functional kitchen, plus enough space in which to conduct the class safely. Provided you have those, your chef will gladly bring the class to you.

Bryan S.

Our cooking class experience with Alicia was excellent! She was full of energy and very fun to talk to. She explained all the ingredients well and catered to our tastes. The meal turned out to be delicious. We went a bit overtime but it didn't matter because we had so much fun chatting and vibing. Alicia happily cleaned all the dishes and left our kitchen better than it was before. Would highly recommend it to others.

Terence L.

I decided to try something new this year for my wife's birthday and this experience did not disappoint. Alicia was friendly, fun to hang with, respectful, patient and extremely accommodating to the occasion. She answered all our questions and even gave us the recipes after :) This course was a great experience and turned out super tasty (I am from Hong Kong and have consumed many wontons in my lifetime). Highly recommend this for someone looking for a fun cooking lesson at home!

Naomi C.

Alicia was great! She was so personable and made the experience for my mom and I so pleasant. The wine pairings she suggested, went great with the meal! The food was also great and we learned so much. Would highly recommend!

Roochi A.

We had a wonderful evening with Alicia. She was easy going, fun to cook with and a great teacher. She made lots of modifications to the food based on our preferences. She taught us some great tricks to make the cooking taste even better and she took lots of photos for us to commemorate the evening. We can’t wait to host her again for another cooking class!!

Ryan G.

I booked Chef Alicia for my girlfriend’s birthday and the experience was fantastic. The food was delicious and Chef Alicia was warm, friendly and very personable. We had some great conversations. She was also very organized. My girlfriend and I took away some very helpful cooking and food presentation tips.

Robert B.

What a great event! Alicia was awesome. She was patient and engaging. The food was great. It was a very fun night for the whole group.

Joerg D.

Amazing, relaxed and well organized! The food was simple and delicious. It was a lot of fun to learn to use the phyllo pastry to make the must delicious, simple and tasty dessert with just few ingredients. Love it.

Charline H.

We had a great time with Alicia, the meal was very tasty. She is organized and clear in her advice and instructions. The "Classic Middle Eastern Spread" meal is accessible to people who are beginners in cooking or who are looking for a simple dish to make. We recommand cooking with her :)

Marcos M.

Chef Alicia was great! It’s worth noting though that this is not exactly Chicken Shawarma. The meal is not fully the authentic middle eastern dish, it’s rather the chef’s spin on the dish. And it’s great! Alicia herself was very helpful and adjusted to our cooking style/level wonderfully. Great chef!

coulson w.

I scheduled Alicia for a date and had an amazing experience. The food was delicious, and she was an incredibly friendly conversationalist. Both my date and I walked away with some very helpful cooking tips and new recipes to try going forward. Would def book again!

Dan T.

Alicia ran a fantastic wonton workshop for me and my partner. Food was delicious, she shared her tips & tricks in the kitchen, made sure all the food was handled safely and ran a very engaging and fun class. She is also very responsive. Highly recommend Alicia!

Rachel J.

Chef Alicia was incredible! She is extremely knowledgeable and we learned so much from her, both general tips about how to mix flavours and specific advice for using wonton wrappers. Chef Alicia was extremely kind and a great teacher. And the food was delicious!! Each dish was a mouthwatering combination of flavours and textures. We can't wait to try the recipes again on our own!

Oscar G.

My wife and I had a great experience with chef Alicia. She made sure to make us both feel comfortable while learning a new cooking style and have fun in the process. Chef Alica's skills are great not only as a chef but also as a teacher. We are really happy with the experience. Oscar

Tori G.

We had so much fun during our cooking class! Chef Alicia is engaging and very knowledgeable. Perfect balance of instruction and hands-on work. The food was absolutely delicious! Would definitely recommend and book again!

Andra R.

Had a great time and Alicia made it easy to relax and have fun! It was all really delish and we walked away with some fun tips and tricks.

Daman M.

I booked a cooking class with Alicia for my one year anniversary with my girlfriend and it was an absolute 5-star experience! Alicia was knowledgeable and passionate about cooking, creating a fun and engaging environment. The class was hands-on and provided an opportunity to learn new cooking techniques and try new recipes. The meals we created were delicious and I was able to bring new cooking skills and recipes to my own kitchen. I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking to enhance their cooking skills and have a memorable experience with a loved one.

Terence W.

This cooking class was awesome! Chef Alicia was patient, helpful and fun. The wontons were great and it was something different. Would definitely recommend!

Kayla P.

Our cooking class with Alicia was a TREAT! Besides the delicious food, Alicia was very attentive and responsive to our ability level and encouraged us to step outside our cooking comfort zone. We definitely did not end the night hungry. I wish we knew earlier that we could freeze portions before cooking them so that the quantity of each course was more balanced (PLENTY of yummy wonton soup compared to main and dessert portions), but other than that it was such a wonderful evening! We definitely plan to have another Cozymeal night in the future :)

Alun L.

Had a great time with Alicia at our dumpling night. We were a group of 4 adults at our home and Alicia looked after a great meal. Communication was excellent and all went very smoothly. Alicia was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and, importantly for us, a great host / chef who really engaged in our evening. We all participated in the cooking over the three courses with some great guidance provided by Alicia. Would recommend Alicia to others looking for a similar experience. Well worth it.

Lisa B.

There aren't enough words to describe how much Chef Alicia exceeded my expectations. The cooking class in my home was a Christmas gift for my nieces (ages 9 and 11) and it was just perfect for them. We choose the crepe meal and Alicia walked the girls through the basics of cooking and making the crepes. She was enthusiastic, engaging, and very patient in guiding them through the process (and answering nine million questions from the little one). They loved the experience and they loved Alicia. I highly recommend her.

Kanika J.

We liked the cookie decorating class. Chef Alicia was punctual, communicated well, and was fun and enthusiastic. We were really impressed by the hot chocolate. However, we were expecting a bit more in terms of cookie decorating. We would have liked if the Chef brought cookie cutters with her as our free hand cookie cutting skills were not great. We also wish Chef brought more colors of icing sugar. We had pink and white. Christmas colors would have been great as we had this event during December Holidays. We recommend this class, however, the price could be more economical. Thank you Chef, we enjoyed the experience.

Mackenzie H.

On an already special day, we were so fortunate to spend our evening with Alicia. Neither of us had ever done a cooking class before, never mind one in our own home. On top of being helpful, knowledgeable and adept at teaching, Alicia was incredibly fun to be around and made us feel like we were a part of the process. All in all – amazing food and unforgettable experience.

John W.

Chef Alicia was incredible!! The food and the class itself were amazing, but the company was even better! She is so fun and knowledgeable. She walked through how to cook the meals and also fit in some kitchen tips and tricks. Would highly recommend any class from Chef Alicia!

Joseph R.

Before I say anything more, I have to highly recommend both this experience as a whole and Chef Alicia as an individual. I booked this experience for a group of 4 and each one of us could not have better things to say about it. First, the food was amazing, each of the three courses was just as good as the last and the portion sizes were more than enough to fill you up. Chef Alicia involved all of us in the prep and cooking process and educated us on the culinary components as we went along. Another stand out point was that Chef Alicia checked in with our palettes throughout the class, tailoring the flavor of the dishes to our preferences. Personally, I love everything about wontons, but being able to take the simple wonton and elevate it into other unique dishes made experience that much more novel and memorable. Chef Alicia is knowledgeable and charismatic which made it super easy to stay engaged throughout the entire class. All in all, I can't recommend this experience enough and I encourage everyone to definitely consider this class for a special event, celebration, or a change from the normal friday night!

Patricia L.

Alicia arrived on time, ready and enthusiastic! I have never done a cooking class before and Alicia made the experience so much fun and enjoyable. She took her time with answering questions and had a wonderful approach to teaching the step by step process of the wonton menu. I am so thrilled after working with Alicia that I cannot wait to work with her again. Her flare for food is obvious and her cooking is delicious! She was so easy to interact with and she was very clear in her communication while teaching. Thank you so much Chef Alicia! Stefanie and Robert

Jemark E.

I booked Chef Alicia's wonton workshop as a gift for my girlfriend's birthday - needless to say we both LOVED the workshop and Chef Alicia! She created an experience that was informative and hands on, with delicious recipes that we have saved to make again. We discussed how different ingredients compliment each other as we added them, we did taste tests because she wanted to make sure we really enjoyed each course, and we ate the most delicious wontons we have ever eaten!! Chef Alicia is personable and we all got along fabulously for the duration of the workshop! Both my girlfriend and I have raved about the workshop to our friends, and we will continue to recommend Chef Alicia for cooking classes to anyone who will listen! Thanks Chef!!

Natasha E.

Thank you Cozymeal for this experience. Chef Alicia was great! I support two individuals with an intellectual disability who expressed that they would like to participate in a cooking class as part of their life goals. I arranged a cooking course for each individual and they had such a wonderful time! Alicia was patient, knowledgeable, humorous, kind and enthusiastic about the meals she prepared with the individuals. Her meals were delicious, colorful and made with care. My clients are looking forward to working with Chef Alicia in the future! Thank you Chef Alicia for making dreams come true. You are a true inspiration.

Ashwin C.

Alicia was great. She tught us all things Wonton and some cool kitchen tricks. This was a gift for my wife. She made sure we were involved and hands-on while still ensuring we stuck to time and made the food in a reasonable time. She gave us some great techniques on chopping while also helping us discover that Wonton soup can be very delicious if made right. Such a fun class!

Alex R.

Chef Alicia was nothing short of spectacular! She came to our house with everything ready to go, helped us prepare an amazing meal, and taught us along the way. She brought her own filming (camera) equipment to capture great memories. Her personable and bubbly attitude enhanced the experience! 10/10 recommend.

Riannon R.

Alicia was nothing short of amazing! She came prepared, was extremely organized, and tailored the experience to our needs. The food she prepared for us was delicious, and we learned so much as she taught us at the same time and allowed for an experience with the perfect amount of interactivity. I highly recommend her and this type of experience!

Renee C.

Alicia was amazing! The food was perfect and she’s super friendly. She made my experience very comfortable and I would honestly recommend her to anyone of my family and friends if they were looking for an experience like this! No complaints at all thank you so much, I appreciate all that you did!
