My recent sushi cooking class with Chef Monica was an absolute delight. Set in an intimate dining area, the atmosphere was cozy and inviting, fostering a sense of camaraderie among participants. One highlight was meeting a lovely couple who shared laughs and stories throughout the session, adding an extra layer of warmth to the experience. Chef Monica's interactive teaching style made learning the art of sushi-making a breeze. From mastering the use of chopsticks to crafting our own rolls, every step was guided with patience and expertise. The intimate setting allowed for personalized attention, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and engaged. Overall, the class was a perfect blend of fun, learning, and delicious food. I left with not only newfound sushi-making skills but also fond memories of a delightful evening spent in good company. Highly recommended for anyone looking to spice up their culinary repertoire in a relaxed and enjoyable setting.

Cleanliness of home was a problem. Hair and dust on table. Not very organized. We did not get all courses. Chef gave my wife plate with hair in it. Rice had hair in it as well…Seemed very haphazard. Really disappointing.

The experience with Chef Monica was incredible. She was friendly, a great host, very knowledgeable chef and very informative. She made it very easy for me to learn as she gave step-by-step instructions that were easy to follow. I learned how to cook several tasty dishes. I would highly recommend her.

The meal was delicious but here are my suggestions on what I would have preferred: It would have been nice to have the entree items served together (risotto, rabe, potatoes, and osso bucco) instead of separate courses. This way guests are not getting too full before you actually got to the meat. She had prepared large portions especially of the risotto and Osso bucco, which was nice to put in the freezer. I would have liked to have more of a demonstration on making the risotto and even a better review of the recipe and pertinent food tips. The dessert was wonderful and I think was actually our favorite item of the meal. Overall, I would certainly do one of these again.

Chef Monica was fantastic. Prepared everything, answered all our questions, made fantastic food, explained the dishes, and left the area as clean (or better) than she found it! Definitely recommend Chef Monica!

The cooking class with Chef Monica was wonderful. She is a very educated and professional chef. She taught us so much about the science of food and ways to cook vegan food. The food was also so delicious. Thank you so much for a personalized, one of a kind experience. I will definitely book another class with her!

I was given this experience by my Husband for Date night as a surprise. Did not know what I was expecting. To start Monica was very welcoming and a bit surprised by my husband not letting her in it was a surprise for me. So we both were surprised in a good way. As we walked in the home was very well kept. Very clean and the dinner table was prepared for guests. We continued in she directed us where to put our items and to make ourselves comfortable, which we appreciated. She began to confirm all the food items we were going to make this night. Needless to say, I was so super surprised by it all. As we are attempting as Vegan beginners and this was so excellent. Monica was super informative and educational in every aspect and she also explained as she was demonstrating various options which meals we could make adjustments to if need be when we are preparing them. Super pleasant personality and was very well prepared, she has all utensils you ever want to have and need as we expect nothing less from a Super Chef. What I appreciated most was she has no pets and her house is very clean physically and regarding food ingredients. Everything she pulled out was either vegan or organic. She was very patient and helpful. Monica was not just a demonstrator she allowed us to get in there and cook also, the true meaning of a Cooking Class. Another good part is we all sit and eat, talk, and learn a little more like a family, and being that she truly enjoys what she does it was like being in a family kitchen and being taught how to cook all over. Thank you, Monica I am very grateful my husband chose this as a surprise for me, it was a super choice. I'm not sure why I see a bad review, especially regarding Dog hair as she does not own any pets, so this could be a mistake. Monica, we appreciate you also sending us all the recipes we made in class and some others. Thanks for your time.

Great chef, educator and host. I learned a lot about traditional Ukrainian dishes and how to make my own crepes! 5/5 stars!

Cooking was great. Professionalism was great. Kindness was great... the sanitization and cleanliness of all cooking supplies and the dining table was very disappointing and unacceptable. Especially, for the amount of money spent. Most importantly because we are dealing with food. There was lint and dog hair everywhere on the dining table cover. Chef Monica kindly removed it after being asked to. In addition to this I had to wash multiple dishes myself due to old fingerprints and food stains still being present on dishes. I don't know if I will use Cozy meals again because I can't trust going into a chefs home. Everyone that can cook can't clean. This was my first experience with a cooking class and cozy meals.

Chef Monica is awesome. Beyond teaching how to make delicious dishes, she taught us a lot about how food is actually produced and processed; and how to make good choices at the grocery store. She also gave a real science class about what is actually happening when dough rises, and about the composition of different flours.

Wonderful experience! Very educational and fun! We signed up to celebrate our 3 year anniversary. The recipes pushed us out of our comfort zone and we learned a lot of practical tips to use with other meals.

We enjoyed a beautiful 6-course meal with Chef Monica to celebrate my mother's 70th bday, and she was wonderful! All fresh, organic ingredients; a specially created menu to meet my mother's dietary needs (no sugar, lower carb); and Monica was lovely to speak with throughout the evening and left the kitchen clean and tidy. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Chef Monica has so much knowledge about cooking, and what ingredients can make food healthier. She has a great personality, and welcomes the interaction throughout the class. I really enjoyed it.

We just had the most amazing time learning how to prepare a 4-course vegan meal from Chef Monica. Each item left us drooling and will definitely be included in our frequent dishes at home. W cannot wait to come back again!
