Booked the class Authentic Spanish Feast with Chef Danushka in Austin (Oak Hill)
We cooked the Spanish meal which included Patatas Bravas, Seafood Paella and Churro with dark chocolate dip. The patatas were delicious and the dip took it to another level. The paella was very flavorful and the churros were light and fluffy. Chef Danushka was patient with our questions and we learned other things beyond what the Spanish feast called for. Me and my friend had a great and highly recommend it to anyone looking to have fun and learn pro way to cook.

I gained a ton of confidence in my chicken breast cooking, and chef's fun energy powered us through! I actually feel like I could do what we did at home... and it wasn't too tough. Even the risotto seemed really straightforward... and those nutella brownies rocked. I'm excited to sign up for another class with chef Danushka again, soon!

Chef Danushka is such a fun personality. She's clearly incredibly talented, but she breaks down her knowledge to make cooking very approachable. Her kitchen space was spotless and elegant - a great date night idea!

Booked the class A Romantic Italian Feast In Verona with Chef Danushka in Austin (Oak Hill)
I purchased this experience for mine and my partners 1 year anniversary. We did the pasta making class. The final product was delicious. Chef Danushka is a pro. She knows her stuff and she appreciates those that know how to follow direction. So, if you think you are going to go in there and just wing it, you got another thing coming lol. Chef has a dry humor that may take some a little time to adjust to. We didn't have a problem with it. We actually found it quite funny, but I can see how some may not adjust as well. Howerever, she is very sociable, interactive, and knowledgeable. Her home is beautiful and super clean. We do plan on taking another class some time soon. Thank you Chef for being a part of our celebration, and creating such a great experience. Also, I'll practice not calling you ma'am next time around.

My wife and I took Danushka's Italian cooking class where we made a salad from scratch, 2 types of handmade ravioli and a apple & pear rum cake for desert. Chef Danushka was a good teacher and had a fun personality. Her home was beautiful and we had a great time. The Parmesan and ricotta ravioli in brown butter sage sauce was a knockout! Highly recommend!

Booked the class A Romantic Italian Feast In Verona with Chef Danushka in Austin (Oak Hill)
Who doesn’t love an Italian meal with a nice salad, fresh pasta, and a delicious dessert. The experience in Chef Danushka’s kitchen was delightful. I learned that all these years I have been holding my knife incorrectly. I learned that when I’m making a salad dressing, I need to emulsify the ingredients. But the best of all was having fun learning how to make fresh pasta. This is something that I always found intimidating, especially using a pasta maker. Well, the experience was fun! I can’t wait to get my own pasta maker and go to town making ravioli for us and my family. I highly recommend chef Danushka! Definitely planning to come back for additional experiences!

Booked the class A Romantic Italian Feast In Verona with Chef Danushka in Austin (Oak Hill)
We had a great time with Chef Danushka. My wife and I did the "A Romantic Italian Feast in Verona". We learned how to properly hold the knife, made a very amazing balsamic vingerette salad, two fantastic types of ravioli, and an amazing apple rum cake. We enjoyed learning this simple meal that we could do at home. Chef Danushka is super friendly and we had a lot of great conversations while learning to make the meal. Would highly recommend not just this class with Chef Danushka but any course she offers.

Our experience with Danushka was incredible. Every dish we made was delicious and felt so easy with her guidance and instruction. I especially appreciated how firm, yet forgiving her teaching was. She's also just such a fun person to be around, and made us feel very comfortable and welcome in her home/kitchen. I would recommend to anybody looking for a fun and intimate evening with good food and good conversations!

Booked the class A Romantic Italian Feast In Verona with Chef Danushka in Austin (Oak Hill)
My girlfriend and I took “A Romantic Italian Feast in Verona” with Chef Danushka, and it was one of the best date afternoons we’ve had. For context, my culinary repertoire tops out at ground beef, black beans, and garlic powder—so a hands-on pasta class was a stretch for me. Chef Danushka walked us through ravioli completely from scratch: mixing and rolling the dough, cutting, filling, sealing, and cooking it. We also made a smoky bacon marinara that permanently changed what I thought pasta sauce could be. Along the way, I learned that sealing ravioli demands more pressure than you’d expect, that whisking is not just aggressive stirring, that ravioli dough gets exactly two folds (not three, not six), and that operating a pasta maker does not require twisting yourself into a yoga pose—something Chef Danushka witnessed firsthand. She was patient, kind, and genuinely skilled, keeping the whole afternoon relaxed without sacrificing real technique. 10/10 would fold the dough exactly twice again!

We had THE BEST time with Chef Danushka!!! We did the dumpling Asian exploration class and it was fantastic. Chef Danushka was very welcoming, informative, and fun to learn from. She taught us knife skills, how to fold dumplings, and so so much more. We loved being able to do the cooking and enjoy the delicious food along the way. Chef Danushka taught us so many tips and tricks that we will be using in our kitchen and cooking. Everything was amazing and just the best night. We will definitely be booking more classes with Chef Danushka!

Elegant and Seasonal Italian. Our chicken dish was cooked great and brownies came out beautiful. The croutons were better than store bought and I learned how to properly cook asparagus.

My husband, our two adult daughters, and I took this class together. We had fun making our own pasta, preparing the meal, and learning little things , like how to correctly hold the chef knife. The food was delicious and the apple rum cake was to die for. We highly recommend Chef Danushka.

My friend gave me this experience for Christmas and it was the best gift! Chef Danushka was very knowledgable in the kitchen and I learned some things that I will be implementing in my own kitchen right away! The meal was entirely gluten free and so delicious. We made shrimp spring rolls with peanut sauce, Thai pork meatballs with rice noodles with sauce, and coconut rice pudding with candied ginger and fresh mango for dessert. I am excited to make the meal again for my family. It was a really fun time- highly recommend!

Booked the class A Romantic Italian Feast In Verona with Chef Danushka in Austin (Oak Hill)
Danushka, aka “cook”, aka “master”, aka “sensei”, but never “ma’am” (NEVER “ma’am), runs a tight and tidy kitchen. I would recommend Danushka’s cooking class with 6 out of 5 stars for any family who fancies themselves even halfway competent in the kitchen. Our experience was defined by good natured ribbing, fine wine and plenty of breaks for sampling the delectable dishes that Danushka directed a family of amateur chefs into cooking. If I had to compare Danushka’s tutelage to a kitchen implement it would not be a sandalwood soup ladle, but a cast iron cheese grater because I can only describe the experience as a cleansing culinary flagellation. After a 3 hour session I think I speak for our whole family when I say that I feel as if a lifetime of improper kitchen habits have been painstakingly peeled away from me in a scathingly cathartic hotpot of tears (crying laughing

Our experience with Danushka was absolutely perfect. It was a holiday party outing for our team and provided the ideal blend of team building, fun, and delicious food in a comfortable atmosphere.

We cooked General Tso Chicken with black fried rice, Pork dumplings and dipping sauce and banana tempera with chocolate sauce. She was very organized and understood the importance of how to cook items in a way that was easy to follow and made it comfortable for us to try at home. She built in knife and frying skills. She allowed us to take pictures of the receipts as well as an extra one that once she understood the reason for taking the class to learn more how to cook Asian. She was professional and delightful. She did teach us how to substitute an ingredient if your run out of something. I would be will to take another class from her or recommend to a friend.

My family and I had a great time during the "Journey to Vietnam" cooking class with Chef Danushka! We went in as a team of amateur cooks—my husband, our 11-year-old champ, and our 14-year-old kitchen enthusiast—and came out feeling like culinary ninjas. Chef Danushka's easy demos and words of encouragement turned our kitchen fumbles into masterpieces. My kids, who usually think the microwave is a high-tech gadget, were suddenly in charge of spring rolls and pork meatballs like pros. Chef Danushka's witty guidance and candid tips made the class not only educational but laugh-out-loud fun. We left with full bellies, a handful of tasty recipes, and a new family catchphrase: "It's all about peanut sauce!" If you're looking for a family cooking adventure that's a blend of learning and fun, Chef Danushka's class is the secret ingredient.

Chef Danushka was efficient and knowledgeable in her skills. she is used to people following her instructions and finally relaxed as the meal being prepared was successful. She deserves a raise due to the amount of work involved in planning, prepping, and clean up then also being the ultimate hostess as she teaches us non-chef types how to do things. thank you. I learned a lot that night.

Chef Danushka is quirky, but in the best way. Once we all warmed up to one another we really enjoyed ourselves. Six people paid for our ravioli class, but only two couples showed up. It turned out that was fine though — a more personal experience. We learned a few things, had good food (including graciously accommodating me being vegetarian), and laughed a lot. 5/5, would do it again. Thank you, Chef!

I could not have asked for a better experience. It was one of the best team-building outings we have ever done. Chef Danushka was informative and fun! She definitely made us feel very at home with our group of 16 and like she was one of our group! The space itself was absolutely stunning. It was as inviting as if we were at a house party. We all (willing) participated and she was incredibly engaging. I cannot say enough! I would recommend her for team building or small personal dinner parties. She is phenomenal, and that is the unanimous decision from all 16 of us!

Chef Danushka is a person filled with personality. Although you wouldn't think so at first given her very deadpan humor and delivery of instructions but, she is genuinely funny. I think what I enjoyed the most was the confidence she helped build throughout our session. Her instructions were clear and she was patient. The food turned out great and the dessert was (chefs kiss). In fact, I not only cleaned out my plate but also my wife's plate and then had to stop myself after licking my own plate. It was a fun experience and I definitely feel like I walked away with new skills and fond memories.

Cannot give enough praises to Chef Danushka. She was right up our ally with her humor and skill level. I know most people rave about the brownies (which don’t get me wrong are sensational) but it was the simplicity of the whole meal that was the biggest takeaway.

Chef Danushka provided the perfect opportunity for mother/daughter bonding. She was patient, informative, and made the experience fun and enjoyable. She knew how to bring out the budding chef in my 11 year old daughter who couldn't stop saying YEAH! to every course. Her home was warm and inviting. The meal was simple, yet elegant and impressive. I left feeling like I had all of the tools to recreate it. I would highly recommend Chef Danushka for a cooking class, as a private chef, a team-building event, or any of your other culinary needs.

You walk into Chef Danushka's beautiful home and are greeted with a chill atmosphere. She already has the food settings ready and the food laid out. After introductions and house rules, you start cooking the course menu. We did the Sweet and Savory Thai Cuisine. You get hands-on experience and learn some neat tips & tricks along the way. Chef Danushka makes you feel comfortable even if you have no idea what you are doing and is quite funny. She has a good balance of professionalism and entertainment -- I would recommend. Can't wait to try another class!

Chef Danushka offered an excellent training course for my daughter and me. She was patient and informative, the dishes in our meal were straight-forward, uncomplicated but also delicious, well planned and complimentary. Chef Danushka did a great job of prepping before our arrival so the training and meal proceeded smoothly from course to course. She had us do the hands on work while coaching and offering suggestions to improve our technique. I would definitely return for another session.

Would give Chef Danushka more stars if I could!! I booked a private cooking experience with Chef Danushka last weekend with five of my close friends. None of us were quite sure what to expect or how formal the arrangement was going to be. We brought plenty of wine and were prepared to make it a memorable night. From the moment we arrived, we were brought into the Chef's adorable, clean home with a beautiful kitchen, perfectly arranged for us to gather comfortably with a great view of all cooking instructions. The Chef is hilarious and made all of us feel at ease while still giving us lighthearted banter that made sure we were all involved and engaged. The food was one of the best meals I've had in awhile (and I'm not even typically a pork eater) and the experience overall was one of the highlights of the last few months. Thank you, Chef! Looking forward to booking with you again!

Danushka is amazing—I honestly cannot recommend a class with her highly enough! My boyfriend gave me this class for Christmas and it was one of the best gifts I've ever been given. We got KNIFE SKILLS AND LIFE SKILLS that I won't soon forget. Danushka respects you enough to treat you seriously in the kitchen and makes sure you'll leave not only knowing a couple of new (delicious) recipes, but also tricks and tips that you'll use any time you're in the kitchen. From the importance of a salt cellar to the best way to cook moist, flavorful chicken to the secret recipe for the brownies you've had in your life—everything is fun to make, delicious to eat and will leave you with lessons you'll use for years to come. Have fun and bon appétit!

Holy cow, what can I say! Danushka was a fantastic teacher and comedian. Her approach of explaining, demoing, and then make us do it was the right approach to ensure we were learning the techniques and not just getting a glancing understanding of them. Couple that with the laid back atmosphere, the unabashed humor, and the really great recipes, and it all added up to a fantastic date night. Don't be a dimwit. Sign up. Spend an evening with her. You'll thank me later.

This class is wonderful. The Thai food is healthy and delicious. Everyone participates in the class, cooking various parts of the meal. We eat as we go. Everything is tasty, delicious and very replicatable - you can make it at home! Chef Danushka is a wealth of knowledge, answering questions as you go and giving you tips along the way (how to hold a knife, how to chop cilantro, how to chop ginger, etc). I was in a group of 4 and we had a lot of fun, ate well, and learned a ton.

Chef Danushka laid our scene in fair Verona, with a main course of cheese ravioli, fresh-roll’d pasta we cut and pinched into a meal, at her candid instruction. She tolerated no mutiny, or hands unclean, but in the three hours’ traffic of her kitchen, we laughed through our misadventures and buried all strife. Highly recommended. Great for date night.

I cannot recommend Danushka's lessons enough. My boyfriend and I were a bit apprehensive about joining four people we didn't know for the evening, but we had an absolute blast. Danushka guided us through each course, gave us all a chance to get involved, with helpful kitchen tips and colorful commentary throughout. She was a genuine delight and we left excited to keep cooking. And the food was 5 stars! First, she taught us to make our own vinaigrette -- life changing. Next, we learned how to prepare butternut squash risotto before making chicken with parsley butter. And we ended with Nutella brownies, which are somehow even better they sound. Already browsing for a return visit!

We had a blast at Chef Danushka's cooking class! We learned some tips and tricks around the kitchen and the food was delicious. I highly recommend the Asian meal but we can't wait to try out some of her other options next time we are visiting Austin. Thanks, Chef!

Chef Danushka was such an incredible host! Her passion for food and her love of sharing her knowledge was amazing. She answered all our questions, even when we may have asked a few different times and was very patient. She even would show us what was meant by demonstration when we couldn't picture what someone was saying, ha! The food was amazing and I am so excited to try out some of the recipes at home! Thank you for creating a team experience that was one for the record books!

It was mine and my husbands 3 year anniversary I thought it’s about time for him to learn how to cook. I didn’t think he would like it but let’s just say we left there full and he thanked me. He had such a great time and now he thinks he is a good cook. Thank you Chef Danushka for such a great experience.

Let me tell ya'll - what could have been a terrible experience turned out to be more than I could've imagined. I'll try to keep the story short, but I had originally booked a travelling chef as a surprise for my boyfriend's birthday. The day before, I got a strange, sexist comment from the chef. Perplexed, I checked his reviews again (previously all 5's) to see a 1 star from the night before. It was very detailed about how unprofessional and disappointing the evening was. Freaking out, I reached out to the Cozymeal team for guidance at about 8pm. By 9:30pm I had been reached out to twice by phone by Heather with the 24 hour support team and received nothing but the best customer service. She understood my concerns and connected us last minute with Chef Danushka. I got several more emails from Heather checking in and making sure everything was set up. Now that I've raved about Cozymeal's amazing customer service, let me tell you: book Chef Danushka. She welcomed us into her lovely home and had a custom birthday card ready for my boyfriend. She had everything prepped and got us cooking right away. We bombarded her with questions and she gave us nothing but patient and useful tips. Everything flowed smoothly and we took breaks to eat the courses while others cooked. The food was perfect for a beginner and not to mention INSANELY good. Also, as an even nicer touch, she put a candle in the brownie at the end for my boyfriend's birthday. At the end, she wrote down a list of suggestions of kitchen supplies to get as my boyfriend will be moving soon. My boyfriend cannot stop talking about how amazing the experience was and wants Cozymeal to add a custom tip option because he thinks she deserves so much more than we gave her. Cozymeal, Chef Danushka - thank you for your flexibility, care, and professionalism. You gave us a night we'll never forget.

We enjoyed ourselves so much! Thank you for opening your home to us. Having everyone take a part in preparing a delicious yet simple meal was awesome and learned some new techniques throughout the evening. I'm hoping we'll be able to do this again another time we're in Austin! Thanks again Chef for a great evening we're still talking about!

Chef Danushka curated a flavor rich menu with fresh ingredients, complimented by herbs grown in her own garden. We spent a laughter filled evening preparing gourmet food with an absolutely charming host. Thank you, Chef!

We attended the Vive la France cooking class as a company party/team building event. There were 13 of us and Chef Danushka did a great job keeping the whole group engaged and on track. She quickly learned everyone’s names and included everyone in the lesson and conversation. The class was well organized, fun and most importantly, the food was delicious. Chef Danushka took extra time to make sure everyone’s questions were answered and she shared a lot of neat tips and tricks. I would definitely book with her again. Great experience!

We enjoyed our time with Danushka, she is warm and thorough. Her recipes tingled our tastebuds and gave repeatable principles for the future. I recommend you try the porkchop and polenta menu option (as I sit in food coma)! She entertained and educated. My wife and I recommend her whole heartedly!

Chef Danushka was amazing! We immediately felt welcome and comfortable. She tailored the course to our wants, allowing us to be as hands on or hands off as we wanted. Since we came to cook, she let us do everything. Danushka was able to teach us so much without making us feel like we were in a class. Under her guidance, we were able to prepare a delicious 3 course Italian meal, learn the tools and techniques to prepare fine cuisine ourselves, and have an absolute blast doing it!

Local, fresh, in-season. These are just a few words to describe the ingredients in Chef Danushka's kitchen, and it shows in her meals. Always in search of a new challenge, Chef Danushka offers customization options in her menus to provide the best-suited class for all.

She is a bit harsh/condescending. It’s like she was angry that we were even there.
