We had such an amazing evening with Amanda! She was early and super prepared. We enjoyed our conversations with her and learning about her life. She's funny, cool, and lovely to spend time with learning how to make pasta dishes. Her recipes are incredible. I can't even pick my favorite pasta that we made together because each were so unique and rich in flavor. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone considering her and plan to take more of her classes in the future! She is the real deal and an amazing human too!

Chef Amanda was amazing and such a joy to have in our home! Not only was she knowledgeable on all art of cooking gourmet Japanese foods, but she also let us know exactly where we could get everything from in Atlanta. I would definitely book with her again and bring even more of my family and friends along! My mom's Christmas gift was a success!

5/5 hands down! Chef Amanda was amazing! We had a wonderful girls night learning how to make pasta and the best shrimp risotto I’ve ever had. Chef Amanda is an amazing teacher and was a wonderful guest in our home. She’s got a great personality and kept the lively conversation going all night long. She’ll teach you how to make things but also gives you time to sit and enjoy it with the rest of your guests while she keeps everything going in the kitchen. I have recommended her several times and I would absolutely book her again!

Our experience with Chef Amanda was one word... AaaaMAzzzzing! I booked this as a surprise for 6 close girlfriends during my birthday celebration. Chef was prompt and so patient during the festivities before, during and after the class. Throughout the cooking class, Chef was fun, very informative on each dish and provided us with lots of cooking tips. Afterwards, we all set around for hours raving about how awesome the food and experience was. Thanks a Chef for helping to make my birthday celebration a blast! I can’t wait to book another class with Chef Amanda.

INCREDIBLE! There is no other way to describe the experience. Chef Amanda arrived precisely on time, with all top quality ingredients, and an awesome personality. The conversation was just as much fun as the cooking lesson. I booked this as a surprise date night for my wife and it couldn't have been better. Chef Amanda taught us how to make KILLER risotto, amazing pasta (ravioli and fettuccini) as well as delicious salad dressing and tiramisu. I will definitely book her again soon and can't wait to learn more from a truly talented chef! Book her now!!

It was wonderful. Amanda was fantastic and it was a great evening of food and conversation. We recommend Amanda highly. BTW, we left her a cash gratuity last night so that is why our tip today seems small. We will do cozymeal again for sure!

James

Chef Amanda was so friendly and personable, it was like having a friend in our home cooking dinner. We loved all of the menu items, Crab Cakes (my fav) Cesar salad, Tenderloin with fingerling potatoes and green beans and Chocolate Lava cake!! We loved her in depth directions and how we could create this same meal. My dinner Party was a success!! Thank you Chef Amanda. James and Wade

We had a wonderful time with Amanda with the sushi making class. My husband is of Japanese descent and had previous knowledge and he still learned a ton from Amanda. Her food was incredibly fresh (and so much! we had great left overs) and she taught us all with a great sense of humor. We will do this again for sure. Thanks Amanda!

Had a wonderful experience and the food was amazing! Chef Amanda did an excellent job teaching us how to prepare our meal and had a great personality. The food was superb and very filling...we even had some leftovers to enjoy the next day. I was a little apprehensive about how the whole experience would work, but Chef Amanda came prepared with everything. I would highly recommend Cozymeal and Chef Amanda! We will definitely be doing this again!

Amazing experience and wonderful food. Definitely the best crab cake I’ve ever had, steak was wonderful, and the cake was delicious as well. Amanda was wonderful and I would highly recommend this experience!

Chrystal

Chef Amanda was great and the food was amazing. I wasn't sure how it would work with a Chef coming to our home, but she brought everything she needed so we didn't have to worry about anything. I also had trouble getting my daughter down to sleep so I was in and out of the class, but she kept me involved and relaxed. And I learned several things I can start to use on my own. I would love to do another class!

Ginger

Chef Amana was nothing short of AMAZING in her Steakhouse experience for my husband's birthday dinner.

Very very impressed at her knowledge about cooking she was able to answer any and every question me and my wife had she knew science behind cooking which was really cool to me. If you have any doubts about booking her push them to the side and just do it. We were in Italy a week before her class and ate risotto and pasta many times and hands down her risotto was better we will definitely be booking again. Thanks so much Amanda.

For my Christmas gift, my son arranged for Amanda to come to his home for the handcrafted pasta and risotto workshop. It was a-maz-ing! The personalized setting allowed us to really be hands on and evolved in every aspect of creating our menu. Amanda gave clear instructions on how to and why we were using a certain ingredients, tools, and prep techniques. She brought all of the components for each of the dishes, mentored us while we cooked, and then cleaned the kitchen. From the appetizer to dessert, it was delicious and generously portioned. We've participated in group classes and enjoyed them very much;. however, this personalized time in the comfort of his home, was very special. My son and I will reminisce about this evening for a long time!

Lisa

17 Aug 2017

Positive and enjoyable experience! Chef Amanda was a very capable teacher who was willing to answer questions and offer cooking secrets to us. She was also super easygoing and welcoming and so was her assistant Yvette. I had a blast whipping up this Italian dinner with the class. The menu sounded intimidating beforehand, but Chef Amanda guided us through the process, and it wasn't as hard as it seemed. Making the pasta was the coolest part. I definitely want to recreate the shrimp and saffron risotto in my own kitchen sometime!

Lindsay

I really appreciated how Amanda pivoted quickly when one of the guests ruined a selfish-free dish by adding in a shrimp shell. Everything was a bit chaotic, which may be par for the course, but she was also laid back herself, which meant she helped to take away some of the stress instead of adding to it and being upset that things didn't go well. The dishes she chose to teach were great options. My husband and I had never made pasta before, and it was really fun to get to do that! I'm glad there were snacks and drinks to munch on, because the food took a while to be ready. Also, Amanda's friendly and lively personality goes really well with being an instructor! From my husband: In that atmosphere, Amanda needs to be more focused on directing people, instead of doing things herself. Honestly, though, I think it went super well.

Mary Margaret

I had such a good time meeting the other guests and Chef Amanda. Unfortunately I had to leave due to emergency before we started making pasta. I am an aunt now and cannot wait to return and try CozyMeal again and get the full experience

Randy

12 Aug 2017

Chef Amanda did a fantastic job teaching our class about pasta and risotto making. She introduced herself to us before the class and took into account our dietary restrictions. The class was taught with a lot of enthusiasm. Chef Amanda provided a lot of technical guidance while keeping the class fun and hands-on. I was impressed by how easily her recipes could be prepared with just a few basic ingredients. I would definitely recommend Chef Amanda to others.

Jacqueline

Oh My Deliciousness! My friend and I signed up for the French Seasonal Provincial class. This was an incredible experience! Chef Amanda showed up on time and ready to go! We got to participate to practice quick skills she shared. Her style of teaching and cooking is great for novice or experienced cooks because she shares great tips and new recipes. And the food... Absolutely Delicious! The portions are very generous too. We had wine on hand to enjoy with our meal and made a really fun girls night of it! Looking forward to booking another class with her.

Eri

04 May 2017

What an amazing cooking class! Chef Amanda was so knowledgeable and so willing to share her tips and tricks! Love the hands on experience and most importantly ALL the dishes we made were so scrumptious! The dishes sounded and looked difficult to make but it was quite the opposite. I could not believe how simple and easy it was to make such fancy dishes. I cannot wait for my next soirée so that I can show off my new skills and delicious meal! Thank you so much Chef Amanda! I'm definitely signing up for another class very soon! Eri
