Cooking Class - Vegan Chinese Takeout Favorites

Join Chef Andy for an authentic Chinese culinary experience with 100% plant-based dishes.

During this hands-on cooking class, Chef Andy will guide you in preparing Chinese takeout meals with a vegan twist. You'll also learn cooking techniques that can be used in a variety of recipes.

Start by folding a mushroom-cabbage mixture into potsticker wrappers, which you'll cook and pair with ponzu sauce. For the main course, Chef Andy will teach you how to make orange tofu with ginger, garlic and onions served over warm rice. And for dessert, you'll make golden fried Chinese sesame seed balls filled with a sweet red bean paste.

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

5 hours agoChef Andy was fantastic! My wife and I have done a few other cooking classes in more commercial settings, but this was much more enjoyable. We had a small class of about 5 people, so all of us were getting plenty of personal attention and tips, and I've already seen my knife handling skills increase considerably in the two days since we took the class. It's fun, a great environment, he played great music, and we actually learned a ton. We also ended up having a great meal! Everyone got along super well, so we ate our creations together and really bonded as a group. Chef Andy's recipes were amazing, and everyone was raving about their own dishes. The portions were huge, so I actually had enough left over to make a tasty breakfast out of it as well. We did a vegan cooking class that night. I'm not one, but my wife is vegetarian. He taught us a ton about nutrition and the benefits of plant based diets, but was in no way preachy or judgemental to those of us who weren't practicing vegans/vegetarians. He created a welcoming, warm, and fun environment for us all to learn and play in. I can't thank him and his assitant enough for their hospitality. And I haven't even mentioned how accomodating he was, as we had to reschedule TWICE after we had a whole lot of life hit us and make it so we couldn't keep our first appointments. He was just like, "No big, that happens. Here's my next few availabilities." If we take more Cozymeal classes in the future, I'm checking out Chef Andy's page first. He seems to have a great head on his shoulders, and I have a feeling he'll be a big shot chef in the not so distant future. You should definitely sign up for a class with him before he gets too big. Thanks again to you both, and good luck in future endeavors!
