Made tamales with someone that wasn't Christopher. The Chef was a bit abrasive, particularly towards other staff members. I didn't love how the groups got the same amount of food regardless of if there were 3 or 4 people per group. Seems like the groups of 4 then got less value which was the case of my group and we would've had 5 people but one of our coworkers wasn't able to make it. In that case, I would've been really upset, but we paid his fee so I feel like we didn't get the same value as other people. I've taken classes before where we make the food and then get to sit and eat it, that would've been more enjoyable than standing at the workstation and eating. Wish we could've pulled up some chairs and enjoyed the fruits of our labor. The staff did a great job of keeping our areas clean which I appreciated.

This dim sum class was fast paced but fun! You definitely had to pay close attention! Chef Deb was very knowledgeable however was stretched thin with 16 people in the class to help at once. Food was delicious- this was my 3rd cozy meal class and I’d be happy to try another again!

Chef Anne was amazing. We had so much fun and enjoyed all the information she shared about baking bread and other classes. The ham and cheese as well as the almond croissants were delicious.

The resident chefs were awesome! So welcoming and friendly. The kitchen space was bright, clean, and perfect for a group cooking setting. The chefs walked through each step, explained everything in detail, and always took the time to answer any questions we had. They also showed us a lot of neat little tips and tricks that we will definitely take back and apply when cooking at home. Great experience and cannot wait to do another class soon!

The finished product really wasn't all that good and the chef seemed a bit overwhelmed the whole time, but my kiddo had a good time which was the goal. I'd do it again.

We had a fantastic time!

Robyn

Overall the class was great! Everything was set up and organized for us when we showed up and flowed easily. We were in a group of 4 (myself and friend were paired with 2 others) but we each were able to take part in each step of the process (for better for worse). The end product was tasty! I feel like I could do the process at home if I choose to, no longer intimidated by it.

Fun class, nice informative chef. The problem is that they did not send out the recipes of the meals we prepared. They said this was going to happen. I checked my spam folder.

We did holiday treats with chef Becky. It was fine, but I didn’t really like getting scolded multiple times and feeling like we were always scared to do anything because we would do it “wrong”. I don’t think I’ll be coming back.

Kevin

24 Oct 2025

I believe this listing was incorrect. The menu and what we made was correct and delicious. But the listing made it seem as if we would be making the noodles for the Pad Thai. That was disappointing but the food was tasty

Candie

31 Aug 2025

Chef was NOT Christopher. Ingredients on menu were not available as advertised (yet they were in available in local store). This should’ve been disclosed the day before so we could reschedule. Chef was not very personable and did not seem to know the menu well. No chairs for sitting if needed and counter was too high (does not accommodate for disabilities under ADA).

Tammi

06 Jul 2025

Unfortunately we did not have the best experience at this class because they did not have our reservation or the reservation for one other couple, so they were scrambling the whole time to get ingredients and fit us into the class. Because they were rushing, the proportions that got measured out for our class were all wrong and we were having to improvise on the fly, compared to the other couples in attendance. The proportions were really small and we didn’t eat anything until 8:45pm. The instructor seemed pretty flustered and didn’t do much to teach us during the class or share stories to make us feel at ease. The food tasted good at the end, but definitely not the experience we expected, I would probably not take a class here ever again.

Erica

27 Oct 2024

I thought the class was okay. I got more cooking tips from another participant. I felt like the female chef was very rude. Our chef was only interactive with one group. I was really expecting more.

Class started 15 minutes late. Recipes were good. Way too many people. We had 8 people around our table.
