This class was both educational and fun. We enjoyed Natasha's spin on a margarita which helped kick off the class in style. The tortillas and tacos were fantastic and I can;t wait to make these again. While these might seem like simple recipes, it's a little bit of a challenge to knock it all out unless you have an assistant. For that I'd recommend this for a couple. Her two camera approach made following along easy and keeping up was not an issue. We are planning to take another class soon. (Pro Tip: get the big bottle of tequila cause you're gonna want more margaritas :) )

They don’t have classes to schedule and when you sign up, they cancel since they don’t have enough students. This the biggest ripoff.

Natasha was a great Chef hosting a great dish. I always enjoy how she uses her life experiences and things she has learned as a tool for sharing during class to make modifications fun and not like a chore. Truly engaging and the fritters were delicious even the next morningl

Chef Natasha was AWESOME! Our class included about 12 people from all over the world (from Canada, to Indiana, to Mexico City, to the Netherlands) and it felt like a very communal experience under the direction and leadership of Chef Natasha. She was insightful, funny, knowledgeable and offered us a number of tips and tricks about cooking that the audience found really compelling. If we have the opportunity to do so, we will DEF be cooking Chef Natasha again! :)

Natasha was an amazing instructor and I would happily take another class of hers. She was fun, patient, and efficient in the preparation instructions. She also made it interesting with some trivia questions for us to think about re: Barbados culture and history. The fish cakes were delicious and so was the rum punch! I highly recommend this class for folks of all ages.

Bob
30 Apr 2023
Naan bread turned out great and definitely easier than I thought it would be. The curry dish tasted good but I was hoping for better. Definitely have all of your ingredients prepped, measured and ready to go before the start of the class as she moves quickly through each of the preparation steps. Natasha was a pleasure to cook with and was able to answer all of our groups questions. It’s nice to have someone teach you how to make the meal in front of you so you can see what the food should look like at each stage of the cooking process.

Chef Natasha was wonderful. She explains each step in detail and gives helpful tips along the way. Our meal turned out delicious. We will definitely be making it again. With all of these classes, you should do the prep beforehand that’s needed and lay out all of your ingredients.

I loved hearing about Chef Natasha's background, and she threw in some trivia on the spices we were using, and other historical facts that made the class interesting. This also helped with building bonds among the participants!
susan

Great instructions and delicious food!
Paul
11 Feb 2023
Overall a good first experience. I would advise future participants on a couple of points:
Prep and measure all ingredients beforehand so that you don't need to scramble around during class.
Be prepared to melt your butter.
Have cornstarch handy in case you need to thicken the curry.
Make the curry in a medium cook pot or dutch oven rather than a saute pan or frying pan.
Be prepared to mix the yogurt and milk together.
Have a whisk, spatula, and stirring spoon handy.
You only need to pre-heat your oven if you want to keep the Naan bread warm.
Oh, and if you have a gas stove with an exhaust fan make sure your computer speaker is loud enough that you'll be able to hear the chef's guidance over the noise of the fan.
Other than that you should be all set!

This class was a lot of fun and Chef Natasha was a great guide! We are thrilled to have a good and simple curry recipe to SPICE things up in the kitchen (ha...ha...). Chef Natasha was able to give me a dairy-free naan bread recipe to use instead that was similar enough to the recipe being taught in the class and it turned out great!

Chef Natasha is incredible! Her sessions are great for groups! I scheduled this online cooking class as a surprise for my girlfriend's birthday. And I told her to invite her friends and their significant others. Everyone had a fun time and learned a delicious recipe for margaritas and fish tacos! We didn’t need a passport for this amazing recipe from Barbados. Definitely, a combo to try for your next date night. We can't wait to try Chef Natasha's "Jerk Chicken and Rasta Pasta" online cooking class! Book her classes as soon as you can because her events sell out quickly. After this experience, you will definitely want to share this with your friends and family!

Our family had a great time cooking curry and naan! Because we gathered and prepared our ingredients ahead of time the pace felt a little slow, but that gave us more time to enjoy the trivia and listen to Chef Natasha's tips for the future. She did a great job of listening and answering all participant questions. I highly recommend cooking with her!
Pat

The class was organized and well presented and she gave good tips. Cozymeal gave me one time for the class and the instructor had another time. It worked out though.
Pat

I never had success making gnocchi before and this was a resounding success. Chef Natasha made the class fun. I've taken classes before that went so fast -- the pace was just right -- she was open to questions and best of all -- I am now able to make gnocchi~

The cooking class event for our Black History Month program was outstanding! The chef was patient, upbeat and very knowledgeable.

Jazmine
15 Feb 2021
I did the 'Chicken kebobs and Rasta pasta' experience with Chef Natasha. I enjoy cooking (when I have time), so initially I didn't understand why this experience would be better than just following a recipe a home. The difference is that I can learn new ideas for flavor combinations from the chef and from other participants , as well as be guided thru the cooking experience with recommendations on how to improve my technique.
Chef Natasha was fun, kind and patient, and she kept in touch with our progress during the event. She answered everyone's questions and was knowledgeable in her field.
The food turned out beautiful and delicious, and I look forward to doing another 'cozymeal' either on my own or with a group of friends .

Well all I have to say is we had a wonderful experience with Chef Natasha!!! She was personable, professional, knowledgeable, and helped us create the BEST Indian meal we've ever had. Seriously. Better than local Indian restaurants. Tip- Make your naan, garlic naan with salt. Was so fabulous. We will trying out another class with Chef Natasha!

I thought Chef Natasha was a wonderful teacher. She was calm, giving clear directions and repeating ingredients or steps often. It was quite a diverse class, with skill levels ranging from beginner to pro! She handled it all beautifully. More importantly, the food was sooo tasty. I've only made naan twice in my life. The first was a disaster but this time, with her direction, it came out perfectly. I may just have to cook it a LOT. The chicken and spices blended together perfectly. I enjoyed every bite of my meal, hopefully with more members of my family joining in -- that was such a special part of the class to see mothers and daughters from all over everywhere cooking together virtually. The pandemic has led to a lot of changes in society and the way in which we can do things togethe -- but cooking with Chefs like Natasha and folks from around the world -- all virtually -- is a positive, uplifting experience in these stressful times. Take care.

Chef Natasha was great! Very patient and resourceful. The food was amazing. We doubled the Naan recipe and cooked extra chicken in an attempt to share with the neighbors but our boys went back for seconds! Highly recommended!

A fun evening and a good introduction to cooking Indian food. The food turned out delicious and I'm confident I could do it again. The pace was a little fast but still a fantastic experience.

The class was very fun and the recipes turned out great. We did most of the prep work before the class started, so we could watch more instead of chopping?. Not necessary, because Natasha walks you through everything and makes sure everyone is in sync. We had approx 10 people in the class and she handled everyone’s questions. I would definitely recommend this session.

Chef Natasha was an absolute pleasure. She and her assistant Cheyenne made our in-home cooking class experience fun and easy. They arrived early to set up and cleaned up along the way, so that once it was time to sit down and eat, we had a clean kitchen and could enjoy the meal without the worry of clean up! I would hire them again :)

The love of cooking with her grandmother and the Caribbean culture have been the inspiration for chef Natasha. Her experience as a business owner, entrepreneur and as a teacher at the culinary school of the Art Institute in Tampa have made her an excellent chef and teacher. She makes her classes easy to learn. I enjoyed her fusion of Caribbean and Indian cuisine. Her Fried Plantains with Bajan aioli were creamy and tasty, a mixture of sweet and salty. The Garam Masala Curry Chicken with Kale and Coconut Rice were also very tasty. The combination of ingredients and spices blended together very nicely.Â
