My husband and I went to Chef Jordan's house last night and we had such a great time! His place is right near Lake Cuyamaca and it was beautiful. We live in San Diego but made a day trip to Julian for this. Chef Jordan was very thorough in explaining how to make each dish, and everything we made was absolutely delicious!! We will definitely be booking him again. Thank you!

Our experience with Chef Jordan was enjoyable, comfortable, and all around excellent. He is passionate about the craft and is clearly gifted in teaching the craft as well. Aside from learning how to make pasta from scratch, my wife and I learned many simple tips and tricks that are definitely going to raise the bar of our daily cooking experience. I couldn’t recommend Jordan enough! I would take this course all over again.

Chef Jordan and his Thai Cuisine Experience was awesome! Jordan was very prompt and great with communication as well as a super down to earth person and great chef! He taught us tons of great cooking and knife skills as well as went even further to teaching us some gardening skills and facts about nutrition which was very informative and made us realize the importance of healthy eating/cooking. I'd highly recommend Chef Jordan to anyone looking to do a cooking class, he was great and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday! Thanks again Chef Jordan!

This was an incredible experience. Chef Jordan welcomed my girlfriend and me into his beautiful home in the hills of Julian. We learned some great cooking tips, enjoyed fresh and tasty food, toured his garden, and laughed along the way. Jordan is not only a talented chef but a genuinely kind human. This experience made our month.

Chef Jordan was exceptional! My mother and I enjoyed a cooking class with him and even though we’ve been eating plant-based for years, his flavor combinations and creative but easy-to-make recipes will become part of our regular menu. Chef Jordan is knowledgeable, engaging and we would recommend his classes to everyone - you’ll be in for a treat!

We thoroughly enjoyed Chef Jordan's cooking class. He is an amazing chef who taught us to cook the most incredible Thai dishes as he warmly welcomed us into his mountain home...a gorgeous setting for a cooking get away.

My husband and I want to give a shout out to Chef Jordan W. . We had such a fantastic time with my sister-in-law and brother for Karla’s birthday. We learned how to prepare and cook the menu from the Thai Cuisine Fundamentals. We not only prepared a fabulous meal....we learned various knife skills, learned about various new vegetables, oils and even how to prepare perfect brown rice in the oven. Our evening was filled with laughter, so much joy and passion for cooking. I loved that all I needed to to get ready was to set the table and arrange some flowers for the table. Chef Jordon was terrific, knowledable and loves his profession. He does all the shopping... tells you where he gets his ingredients so you can prepare the meal again. I was so proud to have given this as a birthday gift. It was a huge success. Thank you again Chef Jordon and Cozy-meal. You left us 100% satisfied!

We had SO much fun with Jordan for the Plant Based Farm to Fork class! The ingredients were so fresh, the recipes turned out incredible and Jordan is an absolute delight to spend time with! We also were SO appreciative that he offers vegan/plant-based cooking classes, as these are hard to find despite the fact that plant-based cuisine is growing so much in popularity for so many reasons. Such an awesome experience and we feel so lucky to have had it. Highly recommend!!

My family’s experience with Jordan was nothing short of excellent. We had hired him for the Thai Fundamentals cooking class at our house as a 60th birthday celebration. He was on time, prepared with all ingredients, recipes etc.. The class was fun and he walked us through every step of the three dishes. The food was excellent, the soup especially was a hit among the family. Further, Jordan was fun to talk to and helpful in giving general cooking tips and advice. 10/10 experience overall. I would recommend Jordan to any friends or familt who are interested in learning more about cooking.

Chef Jordan was great. He came to our house for our employee team bonding evening. One of the best parts of the evening for me was the beautiful set-up with all the fresh vegetables lined up on my counter and how organized he was. Another part that was awesome was that the entire mess was completely cleaned up. And on top of that the food was delicious. We would do it again.

Mackenzie

What a great time! We made SO much delicious, healthy, organic, colorful, Thai food! Chef Jordan was so friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and fun! Also he will customize the food to your preferences which I thought was so nice since I tend to be pretty picky. I despise cilantro and it was supposed to go in everything we made or at least on top as a garnish but he let us skip that step. Thank you so much! Haha. I know that not all chefs will let you change their recipe so I was thankful he was nice about it. He let us pick some fresh mint, tomatoes, peppers and passion fruit from his garden before we went home! So awesome. Thanks for teaching us cooking novices countless things about cooking yesterday!

Jordan was very easy and comfortable to work with and follow in the kitchen with awesome tips on food selection, preparation, and cleanliness with experience that supports his knowledge and skills in the kitchen and his garden where he grows a lot of vegetables.

This Thai cooking class was to celebrate my wife's birthday. Chef Jordan was incredibly welcoming and friendly. His flavors were spot on, and he had just the right amount of hands-on involvement and culinary tips for varying skill levels--my wife (advanced) and me (basic). I would strongly recommend this experience to others, and the setting for the class has a beautiful view with lots of ingredients (herbs/vegetables/fruits) produced on site.

My husband gifted me the Thai Cuisine Fundamentals class for our anniversary and we had such a great time! Before our class, Chef Jordan reached out about any food allergies and was kind enough to cater to my wheat and dairy restriction. Upon arriving at his beautiful home, Chef Jordan greeted us with a friendly smile and took us over to his kitchen where he had all of the ingredients displayed. He asked us what type of music we liked and I love listening to "French Cafe" songs while I cook so he turned it on for a relaxing mood. We made three dishes: Tom Kha Gai Soup, Thai Coconut Yellow Chicken Curry and Fresh Spring Rolls with a yummy Thai Peanut Sauce! Using fresh ingredients and cooking from scratch was so fun to make and eating it was so much better. You could really taste how fresh the ingredients were. Everything was loaded with flavor and pretty healthy, too! Chef Jordan did a great job teaching us knife skills and walking us through each recipe. One of the best things about the class was that we were able to eat A LOT! We made so much food that we were able to get second (even 3rd) helpings as well as pack some for the road. We brought a yummy Sauvignon Blanc with citrus notes that he recommended would pair well with the meal and it tasted great! He also took us on a mini tour of his garden to pick out fresh herbs for our spring rolls. Chef Jordan was very organized, friendly and professional and made good conversation throughout. Since it was just me and my husband, it was a very nice and intimate experience. He gave us the recipes to take home along with some grapefruit and passion fruit from his yard! We really enjoyed our time learning how to make this yummy 3-course meal. The next time we decide to do this again, I’d love to invite a bigger group with us to enjoy this fun experience! Thanks again Chef Jordan!

We had such a fun time with Jordan! Not only was the food amazing (some of the best Thai food we’ve had and we’ve been to Thailand), but he taught us some great cooking skills. The ingredients he brought were also very high quality. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthday present for my boyfriend. Can’t wait to book again!

Large group of 15 people crowded into the Community Center in La Jolla. I was very impressed with the whole experience. Set up and flow of the evening was perfect. Thai was a huge hit even though I was nervous about people not being interested in Asian Cuisine. Chef Jordan was spot on with his directions and teaching regarding knife skills, food prep and plating. Great Job Chef Jordan and support staff. We have a blast.

Jack

We had a great evening with Jordan. The Japanese food was delicious and Jordan did a fanstic job of involving us in the preparation. The lesson was a Christmas gift to my girlfriend and it was a huge hit. Especially appreciated Jordan taking the time to teach us knife techniques and the motivation behind his ingredients. Couldn’t recommend him more strongly for your next birthday gift or dinner party.

Perfect experience for couples, birthdays, or team builds. If I could give more stars, I would! :)
