We had an amazing experience with our hosts, Chef Michael and Bev. My wife and I felt so welcome and truly enjoyed our time working in the kitchen making such a satisfying meal. Due to their helpfulness and hospitality, we will certainly be back in the near future! I highly recommend Chef Michael to anyone looking to learn in a fun and caring environment.

CozyMeal with Chef Michael definitely exceeded my expectations. He was an awesome teacher he took his time to not only demonstrate and give hands on but to explain what and why. The meal was absolutely delicious but the things that stuck out to me the most was their love for God and the impeccable hospitality rendered by both Granny and him. Would I recommend Cozymeal, MOST DEFINITELY. Would I attend a Cozymeal class, MOST DEFINITELY AND WE WILL. It’s no doubt that Cozymeal lived up to it’s name. 5 ***** stars for Cozymeal. Plus we get the bragging rights of being his class. MAGNIFICENT!!!!
