Loved learning macarons with Chef Stephanie! She shared so many helpful tips and little tricks that made the whole process feel easy and enjoyable. Her guidance, patience, and passion truly made the class special. And the best part—getting to spend the day with such wonderful company, lots of laughs, and perfectly sweet macarons at the end. Such a beautiful experience!

Took the Tarte class taught by Chef Stephanie, it was a wondeful experience. Chef was very informative and able to answer all our groups questions. Gave awesome demonstrations and ample time for hands on. Personable and educational, would recommend this course specifically and look forward to hopefully taking more in the future as she hosts a variety of classes.

An absolutely amazing class! It was so much fun learning different techniques and recipes. Chef Stephanie was fantastic—extremely knowledgeable, patient, and such a great teacher. She made everything easy to understand and created such a fun, welcoming environment. I learned so much and can’t wait to put my new skills to use at home.

Our class with Chef Stephanie was a great experience from start to finish! She had the whole process streamlined for teaching each step, and there was never a moment we felt rushed or unsure. Her explanations were clear and her tips/tricks helped us to tackle some of the more challenging steps. It was all very fun, and of course the croissants were delicious! We are definitely considering taking another class sometime.

Chef Stephanie's French Bread class was very educational, and we had such a good time. She was patient and very informative. I enjoyed the hands-on portion as well as the treats she had available for us. We will definitely take the skills she taught us and make our own breads at home. 10/10 experience! We plan to book another course with her in the future.

Chef Stephanie was an excellent hostess and she was well prepared as you would expect from a consummate professional. She did a fantastic job explaining the steps of her preparation and cooking process while showing us how to make the cookies and ganache. We even had the opportunity to participate in parts of the preparation and sample the finished product. I would definitely recommend her class to anyone interested in a cooking or pastry class. Thank you again Stephanie!

We’ve learned so much from Chef Stephanie and the class was well organized. Any questions we had were answered and the hands-on practice plenty. Left class with delicious treats and recipe in hand, we can’t wait to share our future knowledge with family and friends!!!

Chef Stephanie made this as much fun as it was a great learning experience. My family and I have wanted to learn how to make these pastries for a long time and Chef Stephanie could not have made it more enjoyable. Kudos to the Chef.We are thinking of taking the macaroon class with her.

Chef Stephanie is a wonderful teacher. We appreciated the tips that she shared with us to make pastries easier. This was a great class that my 2 daughters, husband and I enjoyed thoroughly. We highly recommend her!!

I am writing this as I’m enjoying the delights of this evening’s class. The French Bread Class was our second with Chef Stephanie, and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. She is a marvelous instructor and gives pro tips that create a-ha moments every time! The take-always are always delicious! We can’t wait to book another and take our friends.

Had a great time today. Chef Stephanie is a great teacher and very knowledgeable. Went straight home and made a batch of pate choux. Turned out pretty good!

Steak, fries, salad, creme brulee. Enjoyed making garlic aoili, compound butter, vinegrette salad dressing, and the brulee. This class was a gift certificate. I enjoyed it very much. Will most likely schedule another class in pastry making.

A really wonderful experience! We did the crepe making class and it was such a great time. It was the perfect amount of hands-on learning with demonstration. I really learned a lot and look forward to taking future cooking classes with Chef Stephanie

I booked this class for my sister and I for our birthdays, We had a wonderful time. Chef Stephanie was fantastic. Slow enough pace to learn easily, hands on, we made 4 different crepes which was great. Was worth the price. We will be booking another class with Cozymeal. Thanks, wanda

What a wonderful experience learning to cook salmon rillette, pork loin, potato au gratin, green beans, and chocolate mousse. My favorite part was that all the recipes were so fancy and delicious, but did not require unusual ingredients or cooking tools. Thank you Chef Stephanie!

This was a lot of fun. Although I thought it was silly that they crowded us all together with another couple. It felt like too many cooks in the kitchen. And it wasn’t the romantic experience we were hoping for. Two table were empty and it would have been the same amount of food. A few more dirty dishes is all. The couple we were with felt the same way.

The macarons were hard to bake, but I learned a lot during this session.

Great time making croissants!

It was an excellent experience in that we learned a whole lot and then enjoyed an outstanding meal!!!!! The apple tart was the best I've ever had.

My girlfriends and I had a wonderful time making macarons with Chef Stephanie. I definitely feel a lot more confident to bake macarons after this class. The macarons were delicious and Chef gave plenty of other ideas for fillings other than the ones we made in class. This is the perfect activity for Galentines or any other excuse to spend time learning with your best friends. (Also fun and instructive in general of course)

We had a lovely time with Stephanie - she walked through each course with detailed, but easy-to-understand instructions and best practices. She shared general tips on cooking, ingredients and kitchen tools as well. The ambiance was comfortable and relaxed, giving us space to ask questions and jump into the hands-on experience with ease. We look forward to taking another class with Stephanie (her croissant class is next on our list)!

I gifted this for my adult daughter and myself for Christmas and it was worth it! Stephanie welcomed us into her lovely kitchen and taught us how to make croissants, almond croissants and chocolate croissants. Her hands on approach gave me the confidence to make them on my own at home. We also made new friends in our class. It was a very Merry Christmas for all!

Various croissants with laminated dough. Chef Monica was good with responses to questions and also providing tips and food facts. Great class and her support staff was great as well.

My class on Monday, December 22nd at 7 PM was not taught by Chef Jaken. It was taught by someone else and she was great. My sons and I really enjoyed the class and look forward to taking another French cooking class or maybe choose a different cuisine to learn. We had an amazing time. Thanks again and see you soon.

Crystal Rodriguez .

Chef Stephanie taught us how to make a fruit tart straight from scratch! We learned how to roll the dough, temper the egg for the pastry cream, and tap into our creative minds while decorating our tart. It was absolutely delicious and I highly recommend anyone take this class!

We cooked croissants and Stephanie made it so easy! Wonderful experience cannot wait to go back for macaroons!

08/23/2025

Chef Stephanie’s Pâte à Choux class was such a treat (pun intended)! She made everything super detailed and hands-on, and patiently guided me through the steps. I walked out not only more confident but also excited to keep practicing (and eating) my choux creations.

Chef Stephanie made this an amazing experience. My family had a great time, and she gave us lots of tips and tricks. I can’t wait to try it on my own at home.

The class was not led by Monica but by a young 20 year old. He did a good job. The class was good and the food (NY strip steak and frites with arugula salad) was phenomenal. I didn't love that they put you in groups of 4 because we didn't get to participate in everything. All in all it was a nice date.

Chef Stephanie was fantastic. My daughters and I had a wonderful time, while learning new cooking techniques. I immediately came home and personally was able to put my education to work, making crepes and new sauces. My husband has a salt allergy so I was able to apply her teaching to my limitations on salt at home. The crepes have been a huge success for dinners, lunch, & breakfast. I even smoked my own fresh salmon tonight for crepes.
