First time attending this event hosted by Samad.....it was a great dinner event! It was not just learning to make a new dish -- it was fun and I enjoyed the good conversation. The place was clean; the food was good; and Samad was a good host!

Absolutely wonderful! Samad put his heart into it. The ingredients were organic and fresh and delicious. The bread was something I have never tried before. The guests were engaging and the conversation was interesting.

Yum meets fun. You'll need to work for your meal, but if you're a control freak like me your tender pieces of buttery steak with grilled onions and veggies, topped by melted cheesiness will be seasoned and cooked to your liking. Samad is a wonderfully attentive and gracious host and his home is immaculate, comfortable and very modern. My first raclette experience will absolutely not be my last. Must get me one of these! I've definitely jumped on the Cozymeal bandwagon. Its a great way to meet new people, especially if you love food. Hip hip hooray for Team Cozymeal!! :D
