Join Chef Lawrencia in creating a flavorful and satisfying Southern-inspired feast!

Say “hello” to Creole cuisine and deep, rich flavors in this New Orleans-style cooking class as Chef Lawrencia teaches you how to make a menu of Southern soul food staples with shrimp and grits in the spotlight.

Begin by baking up a batch of spicy cornbread, then mixing creamy cheesy Cajun grits accented by green onions and parsley. You’ll learn how to expertly prepare shrimp seasoned just right with garlic, butter and Cajun spices, then punctuate your meal with classic, homemade butter cookies — the perfect ending to a spice-filled feast.

Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

We very much enjoyed our experience cooking with Chef Lawrencia! I was surprised at how many delicious dishes we were able to create together in such a short amount of time. Chef did an excellent job of either delegating tasks to us or walking us through them. We enjoyed a wonderful meal and even had leftovers for the next day!

I previously booked an in-home chef experience through Cozymeal with outstanding results. This experience fell well short of expectations. 1) The chef arrived 1hr 45mins past the agreed to arrival time and did not call to advise she would be late; 2) she served the courses but did not come back to clear any dishes before serving the next course; 3) the entrée did not include the potatoes or a substitute starch; 4) the entrée dishes were still on the table when she announced her clean-up was complete and she was ready to depart – she did remove her coat and offer to plate the desert when I asked; 5) the amount of stuff spilled on the floor was alarming, but not nearly as bad as the spill over in the oven. I asked my guests for their opinions on the meal quality, comments were: the vegetables in the soup were probably fresh but undercooked and the soup base seemed to be from a can; the bread bowl was tasty but not in line with the dinner style and completely over-sized; the sauce on the entrée was too watery and the meal was bland; serving garlic bread after a huge bread bowl just didn’t make sense; the desert was good but not delicious. I would not recommend this chef for an in-home experience.
