04 Apr 2023

Chef Jar exceeded all of my (our groups) expectations! The food was incredible but the best part about the night was Chef Jar’s ability to teach us, corral us (when we got distracted talking), and share his story with us. From start to finish the evening was perfect. Everyone in our group had such a great time and we have been texting all week about it! Going to sign up for another one for sure! 10/10 recommend (oh and we are recreating the ENTIRE meal for Easter dinner for our family this weekend)!

Our Asian class was phenomenal! Chef Jar welcomed us into his home and allowed us to work through some fun dishes and really simplified the process for us! These are recipes we can see ourselves cooking in our own kitchen! Chef Jar has a fun-loving personality and has many worldly experiences in dining, which made for some fantastic conversation! The only thing Chef Jar could do differently is invite us to take home the fantastic leftovers instead of disposing of them! We would highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a fun night out!

Chef Jar was AMAZING! He has a great personality and I see his passion! It doesn’t matter if you’ve never cooked, he will show you everything you need to know! Everything is from scratch. They are his own recipes, and they are SO GOOD! I’m an extremely picky eater and I tried the Ahi fish and the sauce and I LOVED it. I never thought I’d like fish! Over all an amazing experience and will be booking more!

We had a great time! Chef Jar is friendly, fun and very knowledgeable. He explained each step of the meal prep process. We enjoyed learning how to mix sweet, salty, tart and heat in the sauces and they were amazing! I also liked that the food we used all common ingredients in every dish. It makes it so much easier to repeat when the ingredients are already in your pantry and something you use regularly. Thanks Chef Jar for an amazing meal and evening!

Michael

10 Nov 2022

Chef Jar was personable and made the class fun. His choice of music was impressive. Great knife skills, talked about cooking methods and why and how he was doing things as he went along. Food was delicious, I feel that we can reproduce the meal after the instruction we received.

Cameron

I surprised my wife for her birthday/10 yr anniversary. I don’t know how I’m going to top this in the years to come! This experience was simply exceptional. We signed up for the Asian cuisine class and the food was high class along with the lesson. There’s no doubt Chef Jar has a passion for food and cooking, but he also has the heart of a teacher. He answered all our questions (related or unrelated) and was great company. By the time we finished the class we had learned several new techniques and different ways to enhance our cooking at home. Thanks Chef Jar!

Christina

23 Aug 2022

Chef Jar was amazing! We had so much fun. He was entertaining and the food was delicious! We learned techniques that we were intimidated to try like making tortillas and churros. He explained everything and made it seem so easy. He took his time with us and made the evening very special!

Meghan

Our daughter gave us a cozymeal gift card for Christmas. We expected this to be a fun new experience, but our cooking lesson with Jar was beyond wonderful! Jar is not only an accomplished chef, but also an excellent conversationalist and host. We felt immediately comfortable in his spotless kitchen while he taught us some great tricks and prepared delicious French cuisine. It was delightful to hear about his chef journey, growing up in Omaha, and how he came to be so passionate about cooking. This was amazing, and we hope to cook with Jar again soon!

Allie

Upon entering Chef Jar's home for the Dazzling Asian class, we were immediately greeted with incredible hospitality. Chef Jar does a great job explaining how to achieve balance in flavors and presented so in execution of each course. Chef Jar not only strikes a perfect balance of flavors, but in education and entertainment creating a fun learning environment. This is a date night we will not soon forget and we are so looking forward to more experiences alike. Chef Jar is going places and we are so proud to be a part of his journey!

Wow!! What a fantastic Evening!!!

Jeffrey

07 Feb 2022

The best part of having Jar as a guest chef at our house wasn't the amazing food. It wasn't the great tips on how to prepare new dishes. It wasn't the wonderful conversation and his effervescent charm. The best part was that when he's a culinary media star, we can tell people he's cooked in our kitchen!

04 Feb 2022

This might have been the best dining experience I have ever had. Jar was not only an amazing chef but he was a fantastic host. The food was phenomenal and I would do this again in a heartbeat. Thanks again.
