Chef Joseph was amazing! We celebrated my girlfriends birthday and the venue was very cozy and romantic. Joseph gave us easy to follow instructions and allowed us to really cook for ourselves. Not only were his stories wildly entertaining, he also demonstrated a deep knowledge on the food prepared. His prep made cooking very fun and easy! We both had a great time and it was exactly the experience we were hoping for.

Chef Joseph was AMAZING!!! I wondered how all the reviews on Cozymeal were 5 stars, but now I understand. I booked this for a first date and it could not have gone better. Chef Joseph was prepared, thoughtful, and extremely accommodating. We will be taking more classes in the future because we can’t say enough good things about the experience.
