Chef Juan taught an amazing class last night in our home. He gave us numerous cooking tips and tricks and we look forward to preparing this meal again for friends and family!

Our cooking class was great! Chef Juan was engaging and helped to make our evening really fun while we learned to prepare really unique hors doeuvres. Everything tasted great, too. I would recommend Chef Juan highly, but I wouldn't recommend Cozymeal. They were a hassle, changed what they said was available, and wouldn't honor the original pricing. I'll book through another outfit next time.

This was just a great experience. Chef Juan was very personable and educated us on the different aspects of cooking this delicious meal. I would totally suggest this to anyone who is interested in trying to learn to cook a special meal such as this.

Chef Juan has been amazing for our community! I have also worked in the culinary industry for 23 years and the cuisine that they produce is the absolute best I have ever tasted, and the residents of our luxury community feel the same.

For a corporate event held in San Antonio for a group consisting out of 25 international high profile guests Chef Juan facilitated the lunch for this group. All food was extremely tasteful and well taken care off. Within the group there were a few dietary requirements such as vegan but this was all taken care off and no issue in being arranged by Juan himself. The catering request was very last moment but this was no problem for Juan! The communication was great even with the 7 hour time difference between San Antonio and Europe. If I need a caterer for a future event in San Antonio I now know where I need to go!

We hosted a luncheon for international guests and worked with Juan on preparing an appropriate menu, he was attentive, careful to plan it according to all of our needs and details. We were delighted not only by the aesthetic presentation of the luncheon we hosted with Juan Cardona. The food was not only beautifully presented, but also delicious. From the cucumber water to the stuffed portabella vegan dish to the gourmet macadamia nut cookies we ordered, the food was complimented by every guest. The ceviche was divine, high quality fish and the beet salad was prepared to perfection.
