Cooking Class - Valentine's Day - Date Night - Cincinnati

This was definitely an unexpected experience all around. About 5 minutes after the class was scheduled to start, all ~16 students were standing outside the room waiting to go in. The chef finally came out with a roster and she actually yelled at people to “hurry up” and get inside. The class continued with some of of that same chaotic energy and a few “unprofessional” comments (“the pans are ribbed for her pleasure”) given the crowd (father/son). The food was tasty, but nothing incredible. My partner and I both felt like we didn’t learn anything new, but enjoyed our time there.

I was lucky enough to attend two classes recently, both taught by Kate. First, we went with some friends to a sushi making class. Then last week I went with a different friend to learn to make stuffed pasta. I thoroughly enjoyed both experiences and feel like I learned a lot and will be able to put those things into practice. I've already used one of the recipes I came home with for a winter squash salad that's delicious.

Learned so much and Chef Kate kept it fun!

the food was plentiful and delicious! Chef Kate gave precise and thorough instructions. Our 3 person group had a great time and plan to take another class!

Chef Kate's instructions were clear and concise. The class was very enjoyable. We plan to return again.

Chef Kate was excellent! She did a great job instructing and setting expectations, but kept it enjoyable. We had a very positive experience and would recommend this to anyone who's interested and eager to learn.

Amazing instruction! I felt that I could ask questions at any time and not feel dumb for asking them. Chef Rebecca was very knowledgeable and funny! Would definitely have a class with them again

The food was dry and Kate had done great cooking tips

Love the class and learn a lot of new cooking techniques

We worked with Rebecca and she was awesome! We had a great time. Rebecca taught us kitchen tricks and cooking techniques. We loved her sense of humor. We felt comfortable and welcome. We will definitely be taking more classes with Rebecca!

Rebecca was a ton of fun and the food was absolutely delicious. It was my son’s birthday gift and we had a great time!

Had a very good time and learned a lot. Very well organized and the instructor was very good and patient, If there is a negative, it was that there were 3 in our group and I thought it would be couples.

The experience was not at all what was described on Cozymeal's website. Overall Maybe this was my own misunderstanding but Cozymeal lists the experience we booked as Steak Dinner for Two. I expected a fun date night with my wife where we cook something new together, drink some wine, and then enjoy a nice meal. In reality, it's just a cooking class where we cooked and ate I'm groups of 4. The other couple at our table was great, but I wasn't expecting to double-date with strangers. Menu I picked this experience in particular because my wife LOVES steak frites. Cozymeal said we would be making steak, fries with a garlic aioli, and a chocolate lava cake. The only accurate part of that description was the steak. It tasted ok, but only after sitting through a 10 minute sales pitch for the Sous Vide system the chef used. The rest of the menu was good (pear and arugula salad, baked potato, and chocolate mousse) but completely different than promised. Drinks Water was the only beverage provided. If we wanted coffee, we had to go into the store and get a sample from one of the espresso machines they were selling. Summary If you want a cooking class, book directly through Their website is more accurate. If you want a fun date night activity with some quality time with your significant other, use a different service.

Chef Gary was amazing. Very patient and knowledgeable.

The other couple in our class was lovely, but the chef seemed confused about the dish and we didn’t actually cook anything beyond searing some shrimp.

Disappointed to say the least. The entire class felt like I was being rushed which made no sense as we got done over 30 minutes in advance. Everytime I turned around someone was standing there waiting to take items off my bench. We were also told that we could eat the remaining ingredients if we didn’t use them all in the rolls but those all got taken away as well. Why add sushi rice to the menu if we aren’t even going to able to enjoy it? This class was not as it was advertised.

Fun class. A little complicated with the dumpling dough, but we got through it and the food tasted great.

Absolutely loved the class. I'm an experienced baker and have wanted to make macarons. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable. I enjoyed the class so much, I'm considering taking the class again as it was so much fun!!!

Amazing class. Chef and her assistant were wonderful! Highly recommend.

Great class. I learned a lot and class was very hands on.

This was the first cooking class I have ever taken! It was very informative and I enjoyed the class . I will be taking more classes in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our class. The instructor made our class so much fun. The macarons were delicious. Looking forward to more classes.

This class was great! Very informative and lots of fun, the instructors were very helpful (and the food was delicious!). I highly recommend this class and look forward to taking another class soon.

The Instructor was "world class" with supportive instructions and humorous analogies. Considering taking the class for a second time.

Loved the class! Chef did a great job teaching us these recipes. I can not wait to take more classes.

Excellent class. Chef Michael made it fun and informative.

The class was really fun and informative. My girlfriend and enjoyed it as a birthday gift. We will definitely attend more classes in the future.

Excellent instructor. Great hands-on experience. I was able to go home and replicate the recipes.

Our instructor was super hands on - taught us some great techniques! Food turned out amazing. We were all impressed!

I loved the class. The ladies I was paired up with were a little chatty so was hard to listen to chef! Before class I was very intimidated but after class I was I got this! Excited to try making fresh pasta my self! Great class over all would definitely take again!
