Chef Kira did an excellent job preparing the Cuban meal experience for my team. She was very welcoming, had an inviting space, and the food was delicious. I would definitely recommend her for a teambuilding activity or a personal event.

Chef Kira was a delight. Let's start with the food. It was exceptional, and she took great care in quickly learning our skill level and providing instruction. It was a lot of food - we had leftovers that I can't wait to eat today. Besides that, Chef Kira has an amazing spirit. She was easy to talk to and created a very intimate setting. She had homemade lemonade and sparkling water available to drink as well as a cheese and fruit plate waiting for us while we cooked. I would definitely recommend cooking with Chef Kira. You won't be disappointed.

Words can’t describe how amazing this experience was. The food was amazing and Chef Kira broke down every single step and gave us some great tips to incorporate i our own kitchen. If you are looking for a unique date night experience, you HAVE to give this a try. You will leave full, happy, and educated. Thank you Chef Kira!

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Chef Kira. She came fully prepared and had no trouble adjusting to our kitchen. She was fun, personable and kept the atmosphere light and entertaining. She gave us some great tips and really let us do the work with some direction but it felt very natural and smooth. The menu was scrumptious . Highly recommend and hope to do it again sometime!

We had the utmost experience with Chef Kira on a lovely Tuesday evening. We’re the kind of people who think we know it all when it comes to cooking, but we truly gained some valuable tips and tricks on how to cook more efficiently and use leftover ingredients in a way we’ve never thought of. Chef Kira is such a wonderful and positive woman, and we had so much fun cooking with her. Highly recommended!!

Chef Kira was great! She and her assistant were very friendly and cleaned up completely after themselves. She even showed up some food prepping tips! While the food was beautiful and very tasty (the first courses which was a salad, was really fantastic), I do wish we could have had the option to choose the menu or edit the brunch offerings. The food was on the heavier side and a great deal of it went uneaten.

Chef Kira was an awesome...sorry chef for my tardiness...the conversation during the lesson and the patience and rapport of a true teacher...amazingly versed in the essence of food, life and particularly senses in general...we definitely had a great time and looking forward to steal some time out of her busy schedule for other vegan cooking tricks :)

Chef Kira is the best! My boyfriend and I took her pizza class and had a blast. Chef Kira manages to make the class both fun and informative. I felt like I learned a lot while enjoying the company. Chef Kira is a great instructor and I feel like I can use the skills she showed me in my future cooking adventures. Thank you Chef Kira!

I cannot brag enough about Chef Kira. She was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She accommodated our dietary needs during the booking process, was timely and professional, explained all of the steps during the cooking process, created an amazing experience in my tiny NYC kitchenette, provided five star service by plating, serving and even cleaning up, has a wonderful and kind personality and helped us make a delicious meal! Exceeded my expectations and I look forward to booking another class!

We did a Cozymeal class with Chef Kira and it far exceeded our already high expectations. We learned a ton and made a delicious Italian meal. Kira took care of everything (brought all ingredients and cooking utensils and cleaned up during cooking and afterwards) so that we could just enjoy the experience. Kira is also fun and interesting to talk with and learn from, and we loved hanging out with her. Thank you, Chef Kira, for such a memorable experience!

We were a group of 7 women and all can't stop raving about how we had such an amazing experience with Chef Kira. She was engaging, witty and knowledgeable. Throughout the class she shared so many techniques. My Favorite part was eating what we prepared. Chef Kira assisted us with our dietary needs and altered our menu accordingly. Highly recommend Chef Kira and I would bring her back for another cuisine.

She is a well traveled chef with a fresh perspective on cooking that made our anniversary extra special. This is a night we'll never forget and we cannot wait to welcome her back into our kitchen! Thank you again Chef Kira! xoxo

Chef Kira was truly amazing! She was very attentive and encouraging throughout the entire night. She shared a lot of really useful cooking tips that I’ll carry with me for years. From the initial introduction and setup to the very last course and detail, everything was very carefully thought out and beautifully presented. I felt extremely comfortable asking questions and the general environment was very cozy, and relieved the stress that a lot of people might have when cooking something outside of their comfort zone. I can’t emphasize enough how perfect she made the experience! I hope to cook more with her in the future.

Chef Kira came fully prepared and did a wonderful job of setting up and cleaning up our kitchen after our experience. She was knowledgeable, showed us some great tips throughout the class, and was fun to interact with during the evening. We had some great conversations alongside some excellent food! Chef is well traveled and brings those influences into her food. We loved all of the food and were even left with some extras/leftovers to enjoy later this weekend. It was a pleasure having her in our own and we will certainly use her again to try out one of her other offerings!

Does the thought of vegan food make your face wince? Think again. Chef Kira makes some of the most delicious food out there that anyone will love! As friendly as she is talented--her lovely home and large kitchen are a welcome area for anyone to learn cooking as well as enjoying the fruits of their labor. Her deep dish pizza tastes like it was delivered from a local Chicago pizzeria. Her vegan banana pudding is not to be missed. She'll let you in on how to make an authentic crawfish boil straight from the Bayou. Her fried chicken tofu with smoked collard greens is not only deliciously vegan-friendly, but a familiar old standard with a healthier twist.
