Booked the class Sushi Rolling for Beginners with Chef Alejandro in Chicago (West Town)
We made a cucumber and avocado maki, a crab salad maki, and a tuna handroll. We learned the procedure to create all of these and how to best handle the kitchenware needed. Chef Alejandro was great at first showing us each of the steps we needed to do, then mentoring us as we tried to replicate each of those steps. My partner and made such delicious rolls, and we are now motivated to apply these new skills at home. Chef Alejandro was great at making us feel welcome and taken cared of at his place, and took fun candid pictures of us as we were making our sushi. I highly recommend him for anyone that wants to learn how to make sushi and build great memories!
Booked the class French Moroccan Fusion with Chef Titik in Chicago (New City)
If I had to describe the event with just one word, it would be “outstanding.” Chef Titik prepared a wonderful evening with delicious food, a comfortable safe space and a cozy vibe which made for a perfect Valentine’s Day celebration. As we made our 3 course meal, Titik taught us world history of Indonesian, Dutch, French and Moroccan culture and also provided helpful tips for the kitchen that I would not have learned had I not taken this class. My girlfriend and I would love to take another class of hers and invite all of our friends to join. It was so fun! We will absolutely take another Cozymeal class and look forward to another dinner with Titik.

Booked the class Essential Dim Sum with Chef Janet in Chicago
Chef Janet was AWESOME! Booked her Dim Sum class for my 2 year anniversary. She comes with everything you could need (you need to supply nothing but a stove and microwave!) and then takes home all of the dirty pots and pans - no clean up was a lovely surprise. She is funny and great to talk to. Oh and most importantly, the food was delicious!

Booked the class Exploring Incredible Indonesia with Chef Titik in Chicago (New City)
Chef Titik was incredible! So helpful breaking down cooking concepts into bite sized (pun intended) pieces.

That being said she was incredibly patient and considerate. Would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a great meal and a good time!

We would definitely book her again in the future.
