My four daughters and I did this class as a girls night out. We learned to make the pasta dough and how to roll and cut it. We made filling and sauce to go with it. It was very hands on and delicious!! Francesca is a wonderful teacher, explaining process and products as we worked. We all enjoyed the class and the meal.

I brought my partner to celebrate his birthday and found this incredible course where we made pasta (my favorite) and NY steak which is my partner’s favorite. We had such a good time and enjoyed learning and cooking with Francesca. She’s an excellent chef who knows exactly how to prepare a 5 Michelin star meal. Everything was perfect, and the food was hands down one of the best I’ve had…and I consider myself a foodie with a sophisticated palette. Thank you Francesca for helping us make this a memorable experience!

My husband and I have been wanting to take a cooking class for awhile. We love steak and Italian food so much so Chef Francesca's Italian steakhouse class piqued our interest. The drive was reasonable to Torrance from South LA. Parking was easy. Her home was so cute and clean and charming! Chef Francesca is such a kind, focused and effective teacher and coach. My husband Jeremy and I got to share the workload evenly. What I loved was how easy and fast the recipes were and how easy it was to time everything out while keeping a clean kitchen. The food was superb and we had amazing leftovers the next day. We had an amazing time and would go back to her or try another class with Cozymeal. I even love how she teaches earlier so that she can be a present mom, just an awesome lady. I feel like I can actually cook everything she presented. Please share with her or post so others know :) Thanks a bunch! Nicole

What a lovely experience. 10/10!! My girlfriend and I booked this for Valentine's Day - pasta making in the morning. We were a bit hesitant to walk into a stranger's home with other strangers (lol), but Chef Francesca made us feel instantly right at home. Not only is she an incredible chef and clearly experienced, but she has a kind, positive soul and clearly loves what she does. Her home is also sweet. Contemporary and heartfelt touches of Italy. She also had cheese and crackers for us to touch on - real parm from Sardinia. We cooked two dishes altogether and they were YUM; portions were generous too...did not eat the rest of the day. So satisfied. Would absolutely recommend and do this again.

Great experience with Chef Francesca. She was a great chef and a lovely host. Such a kind person, and such great food! One note, this class is not as hands on as others I have had in the past. Chef duties are shared, you are not making your own dish from start to finish. Not a bad thing, just important to know if you prefer one type of class over another. Also, the chef chooses your sauces beforehand, so if you’re dead set against any of the sauces, let her know and she can accommodate. Would recommend!

Booked the class Rustic Southern Italian with Chef Francesca in Torrance (Northwest Torrance)

I surprised my fiancé with a private cooking class with Francesca as an early Valentine’s Day gift. The last time we had truly authentic Italian food was in Italy, and this was the first time we experienced fresh, homemade Italian cuisine since returning. Francesca, who is from Sardinia, was warm and welcoming as she shared her style of cooking from scratch, showing us how to simplify Italian dishes. My fiancée is pregnant, and Francesca was incredibly helpful in guiding us on how to modify our meals—such as pasteurizing eggs and adjusting the tiramisu recipe. The result was the best tiramisu we’ve ever had, and now we’ll always want to make it ourselves! We highly recommend learning from Francesca, it was a wonderful and unforgettable experience.

Chef Francesca was fantastic! We had a small group for my mom's birthday and we had such a wonderful time and a fantastic meal. She was extremely personable and was great with all the guests.

Our experience with Chef Francesca was wonderful, informative, and personal. The time spent did not feel rushed in any way, and Francesca taught us a great deal as we all cooked and talked together. I have never made pasta by hand; it was very satisfying to consume a home-cooked meal that we helped make. The food was hot, fresh, and artfully presented. For our pastas, we made fettucini and stuffed ravioli. The focus on Sardinian techniques was an unexpected novelty; we made a type of ravioli I have never seen before. Each one (that Francesca made) looked like an elegant little edible sculpture. Each one that I made didn't look quite so artful...but they still tasted wonderful just the same. Francesca also showed us how to make additional pastas as we worked, adding value to the experience. Her kitchen is well-appointed. astutely clean, and well-organized. She works in an incredibly efficient way, balancing the duties of making multiple courses at once, while still maintaining an easy-going manner and cordial atmosphere. We chose a mushroom sauce as one of our sauces, which incorporated truffles in a way that brought out a savory flavor that really lifted the dish. And she used a secret ingredient in her ravioli that I don't want to give away here, but that has to be tried to be believed. I highly recommend this experience. I gifted my wife this experience for our anniversary, and when we were done, she told me it was a great present and a fun way to spend time together.

My boyfriend and I took Francesca's pasta making class on a Saturday afternoon. It was so much fun! It was just us and 1 other couple, which was really cool since it made the experience so much more intimate. Francesca is such a such sweetheart and we learned so much from her! We started off the class with a cup of cappuccino, then made fettuccine and ravioli from scratch. It was such a great experience. Would 100% recommend taking this class!
