Chef Marc was great. The pesto was awesome! Our focaccia came out really dense so we didn't love that, but we can probably attribute that to s user error!

We had such a great time following along with Chef Marc as we made Risotto and Panna Cotta - we were scraping the pan at the end because we didn't want to miss one drop. Talk about delicious!!!! He made risotto seem a lot less daunting - will definitely be booking with him again.

What a great way to start my online cooking class journey. This was my very first time taking a cooking class ever and my first online class and it was great! I think I will now forever more be addicted. My family really enjoyed eating the empanadas that I learned to make with Chef Marc, especially the spinach and cheese ones - the best!

Chef Marc is terrific! He makes recipes look simple, shares great secrets - the "why you should do this" so you understand the reason behind the method. And, the evening was a nice balance of interaction and knowledge sharing among the attendees and Chef Marc. Not to mention that the food was amazing!

Great time with Chef Marc.
Annette
11 Jun 2021
Wonderful choice for the cooking dish(es). It was simple but not easy. It was great guidance to prep everything ahead of the class. End product tasted GREAT. Chef Marc's pace was a little too quick at times and he used smaller portions which skewed the on-screen example during mixing.
Jennifer

I took bourbon 101. Chef Marc communicates well by email and sends class reminders. Chef Marc made it very easy to follow along and gave excellent cooking tips to apply to future meals. My meal was ready by the time class was over. It was the best meal I’ve ever made and the flavors paired so well, you could not taste the bourbon. My children loved the meal and helping with this creation. I recommend Chef Marc and plan to take another class with him.

Chef Marc's class - a date night in Paris - was a perfect Valentine's date. We have tried several methods to cook duck, and found his was the crispiest and juciest method we've used. Highly recommend!

Alyssa

Chef Marc was great! Our bourbon chicken and lava cake turned out amazing! He does go through instructions/steps quickly, but he leaves time for questions if you have them. I appreciated that he wanted us to measure out ingredients beforehand because that was very helpful. Would recommend taking a class with him!
Christine

What a great class. Chef Marc had great recipes, was very patient and guided us through making a foolproof dough and two tasty fillings. One feature I appreciated was that he concentrated on teaching techniques and not producing quantity, but quality. Well worth the time spent with Chef Marc.
Highly recommended if you want to learn how to make empanadas.

Andrea
28 Dec 2020
Chef Marc was friendly and helpful. The camera over the pan needs to be more clear and we were unable to pin to the screen. It would be helpful if Marc was able to look at each of our cameras to see the food we were making and give us some tips.

Rachel
24 Feb 2020
This was a great class! Chef Marc is super knowledgeable and good at answering our questions. I learned way more than I have at other cooking classes because he not only told us what to do, but also explained why certain steps were important (or not important) and how the same techniques could apply to other recipes. And at the end, the food was delicious!!
Irene
20 Jan 2020
Chef Marc was a wonderful host! Even as relatively inexperienced chefs, we felt relaxed and engaged the whole evening. All 3 courses were delicious and timed perfectly! I felt like we learned a ton and would absolutely take another class with him again. All the ingredients were fresh and measured out precisely in advance. The recipes are authentic but also uncomplicated enough that I can actually imagine us cooking them again in own our kitchen. There were 6 guests and in some cases we each took turns going through the steps, but the group was small enough that I didn't feel like I was missing any part of the meal making experience. Huge thank you to Marc and Simona for a wonderful evening!
Alex
14 Dec 2019
My boyfriend and I had the best time cooking with Chef Marc. He taught us new techniques that we’ll bring back to our own cooking as well as shared some fun, new recipes that we’ll definitely try! Overall, we had the best experience cooking and getting to know Chef Marc and Simona, and would recommend them to anyone and everyone!! 5 stars!

My girlfriend and I booked this class to celebrate our anniversary, and this was definitely a great choice for us. Chef Marc was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about Spanish cooking and tradition. We really appreciated that he taught us how to make authentic Spanish dishes. His teaching style is flexible and caters to the individual's skill level, and he's able to walk us through the steps in a methodical and easy to understand manner. His apartment is in a great location in SF, easy to access and has a really nice view of the city. Above all, his selection of dishes were excellent and we had a really delicious meal.
Cassondra
27 Oct 2019
Marc was a fantastic teacher and host to my boyfriend and I. Taking his Paella class was our first experience with CozyMeal, and I think I am forever ruined by the outstanding location, authentic and delicious food, and great conversation and friendliness of Marc and Simona. I highly recommend this class with this chef! Marc coached my boyfriend and I through the entire meal-making process. The results were amazing - and not because we are good cooks. This class would be great for cooks of all levels. Thank you Marc and Simona, for making us feel welcome and comfortable.

Allen
08 Oct 2019
Chef Marc was great, he had my girlfriend and I, and another couple at his place in SF and we made a Spanish and Catalan dish. I especially liked how he went over the history of the cuisine and the history of how each dish played a role in Spanish/Catalan history.
He was great at teaching us and showing and modeling what we need to do.
David
15 Aug 2019
Had a great time with Marc. He has a simple kitchen (in a great apt) and it was fun to pull together such a tasty me with his guidance and watchful eye. He focuses on recipes that you can actually cook again...simply recipes with techniques he helps you master during the class. Would recommend his class. Definitely want to cook the menu again!
Melissa
15 Aug 2019
Marc and his girlfriend/sous chef Simone (hope I spelled that correctly) are awesome! My husband and I had a wonderful time learning to make paella, patatas bravas, and pan de tomate in their lovely home. Marc did a great job teaching us and another couple, giving enough encouragement and instructions for us to feel comfortable without ever being critical. I learned a lot about Spain and Spanish food, and would definitely book again. Thank you!

Alex

I bought Cozymeal for my girlfriend's birthday this month and the experience exceeded both of our expectations. Chef Marc walked us through the entire cooking process for the tapas & paella as well as answering our questions along the way. He provided us with a lot of knowledge from his experience as a Chef in Barcelona and taught us a few cooking tricks. Overall, he had us do a majority of the cooking and the food turned out absolutely amazing. It was a great, relaxing, intimate environment and we would definitely recommend to any of our friends.

Chef Marc was superb. My boyfriend and I were celebrating our anniversary and wanted something more special than dining at a restaurant. So glad we picked a cooking class with Chef Marc because it was educational, fun and delicious! Ingredients were very fresh. Loved the recipes. He even surprised us with a special dessert to celebrate. Would highly highly recommend cooking with Chef Marc.
Esteban

Chef Marc was awesome - he explained all the intricacies of making paella and since his family is in the business in Barcelona it was a super authentic experience. Very glad I took the class - thank you!
Aditya
13 Mar 2019
I booked this class as a birthday present for my girlfriend and we absolutely loved our experience! We were not sure about what we were getting into at first, but the concept and description of a private cooking class seemed intriguing. The class was held in Chef Marc's beautiful apartment (located in SF's financial district) which has an amazing view and cozy feel. His girlfriend was also joined our class and helped make the experience very comfortable. Chef Marc talked us through all the recipes (the Tiramisu is his girlfriend's recipe--so tasty!) and was really patient as my girlfriend and I went through all the steps of making handmade pesto pasta. After finishing the food preparation process, we were seated at the table while Chef Marc served us the food we had just made. We started off with the Spanish Omelette (substituted for the Calamari Stew as I requested this at the time of booking), followed by the Pesto Pasta (I think it's the best pesto we've ever had) and finished the meal off with the Tiramisu. Every dish was perfectly portioned for the 2 of us and tasted amazing. I would highly recommend this experience as a gift for a loved one or just a fun way to learn how to cook tasty food with a friend!

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time at Marc's cooking class. Not only was he a great chef, he gave us insightful cooking tips from how to cut the ingredients to where you should buy the most fresh seafood. He is also very inviting and hospitable. Highly recommend! Thank you Chef Marc!!

Winston
26 Jan 2019
We had a fantastic time at Chef Marc's place. His experience cooking in professional kitchens was evident, and throughout the meal, he shared tips that I could use in my daily cooking. Food was delicious and felt like something I could do on my own after the class, which is exactly what I wanted. In addition to being very professional, he's also a very good host. His stories were entertaining and his apartment was very well set up for a 5-star meal. Would definitely recommend.
Lauren
23 Jan 2019
I bought this as a gift to my sister for Christmas and we both had a wonderful time! Both Marc and his girlfriend Simona were really hands on and answered all of our questions. It was great having a small group and everyone got a chance to contribute to the meal. The food turned out amazing and now we have some new recipes we can take home to try. We will definitely be attending another Cozymeal experience!
Kira
19 Jan 2019
My fiance and I had a wonderful time learning how to cook Paella with Chef Marc! Chef Marc was welcoming and knowledgeable, his apartment was adorable, and the food was delicious. Along with Paella we also learned how to make pan con tomate and patatas bravas, and about the culture behind the cuisine. We can't wait to try these at home. Would highly recommend!
Aashna
23 Dec 2018
My friend and I had an incredible experience on our "Trip to Italy" with Chef Marc. His apartment was very cute, clean, and welcoming and we really enjoyed talking to him and his girlfriend about their backgrounds and families in Barcelona and Italy. All of the ingredients were fresh, organic, and beautiful, and Chef Marc talked us through manageable recipes and techniques that we could do on our own at home. We particularly enjoyed making our own pasta and the absolutely delicious fresh pesto sauce we made together. We were also very excited to hear that we'd be making tiramisu from Marc's native Italian girlfriend's "heirloom" family recipe -- it was amazing.
Would absolutely recommend Chef Marc and I plan to do another class with him myself. Great company, great food, great space, and lots of value for a reasonable price.
Megan

Marc was fantastic! We had so much fun during this dinner. He took the time to teach us how to make the meal but also let us observe while he worked his magic. The food was amazing and he even gave us printed instructions so we could remake the meal at home. I will definitely book him for another cooking class!

Chef Marc did a great job with our group. He was very personable and made the class fun overall. Even though many of us rarely cook, he made it easy by explaining every step well, answering a lot of questions and giving us time to complete the step before moving on (even cracking a few jokes as he waited).
The meal turned out fantastic. I would recommend this class and will definitely sign up for another class of Chef Marc's again.

Chef Marc was personable and he also provided alternatives to the meal we made. I found his classroom management to be good as he was able to manage those who were ahead, and those who hadn't prepped ahead of time and were a bit behind his teaching.

Chef Marc taught such an engaging, helpful, and informative lesson! I learned a lot of general techniques and tackled making and rolling out dough, which always intimidates me.

Chef Marc did a fantastic job all around. He sent an email prior to the class to make sure we had our ingredients pre-measured and ready to go. That made the class so relaxed and enjoyable, not having to scramble to chop, measure, or prepare anything. He explained everything clearly with a good tempo--not too fast or slow. The risotto and panna cotta were delicious. I look forward to taking another class with Chef Marc.

A group of parents from my daughters’ school joined me for a private cooking class with Chef Marc. Not only was the food delicious, Chef Marc was engaging and taught us tips authentic to his native Barcelona. Coming to us live from Spain (midnight his time no less!), Chef Marc took us through each recipe from start to plating. Even emailed gluten free substitutions ahead of time to one of my guests. The sangria and shrimp were my favorites. I highly recommend this class and CozyMeal in general.

We enjoyed the experience of cooking with Chef Marc, family and friends--all remotely. Chef Marc made an admirable attempt at making it personal by checking frequently on progress, The atmosphere was really friendly. Camera angles and demonstrations made it easy to learn although we never felt we had the dough quite right. Chef Marc had practical suggestions for additional fillings and leftover dough. This was a great substitute to going out to dinner.

What great date night plan! Really loved getting to learn from Chef Marc, feel like I was a much better cook by the end. He was able to share such a great balance of cooking with science (measuring precisely, temperature recommendations, etc) and cooking with feeling (you’ll know when potatoes are ready, reduce sauce to your desired thickness). Can’t wait to take another class!

Chef Marc was personable, helpful, welcoming, and informative. This was my first Cozymeal class and I wish I had done more prep before the class as quite a lot is required! I'm a pretty experienced home cook and it still felt like the pace was quite fast, but his welcoming nature made the class pleasant despite some busy moments. I'd recommend this class because of Chef Marc, and I'll look for some of his other classes to sign up for.
Stephanie

We loved "cooking with bourbon" with Chef Marc on Feb 20. He was very prepared and very patient with such a large group. He was happy to answer any question at any time and walked us through every step. The meal was very good. I have never had any luck with baking but, with his class, I managed to produce a perfect lava cake! He was also very personable and engaging. I would love to try other classes with Chef Marc.

We used CozyMeal for a Valentine’s Day cooking class. It was our first virtual class, and we didn’t didn’t know what to expect. Marc was wonderful and has set the bar so high! He was fun, friendly and engaged with all ~15 participants, even over video. He gave clear instructions and often checked in with each of us without being too pushy. Our risotto and panna cotta turned out delicious. I’m glad we decided to take this class and will definitely take another in the future.

Evelyn
25 Jan 2021
Chef Marc was warm and friendly! And he obviously knows his craft very well. He explained why we were doing things as we did them. One piece of constructive feedback that I didn't want to affect his rating:
He sent an email the day of the lesson telling us to pre-portion and pre-chop all our ingredients. However, we were all working that day, so those of us who weren't able to finish up early were behind by the time we got on the call. It made the experience a little more stressful than I had hoped. It would be great if Cozymeal would email us directly a couple of days before, maybe sending a full ingredient list for shopping and notifying us that we should pre-chop everything.

Friendly.. explained directions well.. think it’s expected that people should review recipe prior to class lol so some delays not in his control another reason why maybe 5 min at beginning to review what u should have in front of you and maybe 5 min added to end for questions. It little short to complete 2 entrees 10 more min would have been perfect .. I would recommend this class! He did a great job!! Thank you

I am zero when it comes to cooking but with chef Marc’s help it felt like there is a cook inside me!

Chef Marc and his partner Simona were fantastic hosts for our experience. It's immediately clear that Chef Marc has a comprehensive culinary knowledge, being true to authentic ingredients and recipes, while teaching in a way that is simple and intuitive. It was a lot of fun with the hands-on experience of making fresh pasta dough, and the end results of our meal - all three courses - were absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend doing a class with Chef Marc to others, and we will very likely do another as well. (Also of note - Chef Marc and Simona were very respectful of social distance and hygiene precautions/masking)

Such a special dinner for my sister’s 50th birthday. Dining outside with our small group was COVID-safe and a great way to celebrate. Marc’s dinner was delicious and plentiful even for my teens-everyone loved it. He and his assistant arriving right on time and left the kitchen spotless. I would definitely choose Marc again.

We could not have asked for a better, more authentic experience than what Chef Marc provided. We felt like we were getting the inside park into a true family recipe. Food is clearly important in Marc’s households and it was a pleasure getting to see a glimpse into his world. 10/10 will do it again.

Chef Marc and his partner Simona(sp?) were fantastic! Super friendly and attentive while also taking many precautions to keep the evening safe (masks, cleaning services, keeping distance while we ate). Food was awesome! Squid was freshly picked up from the local market off the santa cruz pier. Tiramisu was bomb! Pasta was delicious with a pistachio pesto

Chef Marc was amazing! Marc and his assistant were on time and had everything ready. The food was absolutely amazing and it was really neat to learn the background, family touch, and how it’s best served abroad!
We are very clean, but Marc and his assistant did an amazing job at making sure everything was perfectly clean when they left. They also took all trash with them. We look forward to booking another experience with Chef Marc.

Chef Marc was a fantastic host and teacher. The food was fantastic, and Chef Marc made everything seem perfectly easy to understand and reproduce at home. It was also fun to pick his brain about the food and wine in different regions of Spain and learn more about Spanish cuisine in general. My girlfriend and I both had a great time. Highly recommended.

We had such a good time with Marc (and his wife Simona!). The calamari soup was incredible, a simple dish that we can make at home, but one that packs so much flavor. The pesto tasted so fresh. The whole experience was really fun, inviting, and we learned a lot.

Marc and his girlfriend were great hosts and Marc was a great teacher. He not only taught me how to do those Spanish dishes but also gave me more general cooking tips which I really appreciated.
The dishes were soooo good, especially the paella.
I would definitely recommend.

Chef Marc taught my wife and I how to prepare a delicious paella. He explained all the secrets and culture behind this dish and made it so easy. He uses his authentic Spanish recipe and it's very tasty, like if you were in Barcelona! He is such an amazing host and made us have an awesome experience. I would highly recommend!

Chef Marc was great! Not only did we learn about Spanish cuisine, but he also had great tips on cooking in general, from cutting vegetables to the use of high heat. Would recommend to anyone, especially for the dessert - it's amazing.

Had a great class, meal and time at Chef Marc’s. My wife and I would highly recommend. He was patient, a great teacher and made it both interesting and fun. We felt very comfortable from the start and we appreciated the passion and family recipes shared. To cap it all off, the meal was absolutely amazing (taste of Italy). Great experience all around celebrating our anniversary!

We had Chef Marc cook for 9 of us at an event and the experience was perfect! We made 2 paellas under his supervision and the result was delicious. He broke some myths around paella given that he was born and raised and his family is in the business in Barcelona, very authentic! We will definitely want to organize another event with Chef Marc.

This is the second class that I take with Chef Marc and I couldn't be happier. He taught us how to make an amazing paella in no time and he also explained the culture behind paella, where the ingredients come from and why it is important to use the right ingredients and a paella pan. We will definitely come back for a 3rd experience!

There were 4 of us at Chef Marc's - all agreed it was quite a unique experience. Marc is a young chef from Barcelona where his family has owned restaurants for several decades. We made Paella the authentic way they do in Barcelona - no short cuts and everything was precise. The resulting meal was delicious. Better yet, while we have been to many cooking schools and classes all over the world, we still managed to learn several great ideas and techniques from Marc. We highly recommend this experience. Best with a small group (2 would be ideal although our 4 worked fine).

Chef Marc and his wife were the best hosts! Their apartment was beautiful and had an amazing view of downtown SF! He took the time to carefully demonstrate and explain every step, having each of us participate hands-on. He's very friendly and easy to talk to.

Chef Marc provided an excellent cooking experience for myself and a few other guests. He was extremely knowledgeable and skilled in the kitchen, and on top of teaching us the delicious recipes the hands-on lesson gave us some new tips and tricks in the kitchen and broadened our understanding of the ingredients. Marc also provided a lot of fantastic background on Spanish and Catalan cuisine and culture, which was very interesting. He was a fantastic host and I'd definitely return for another class.

We had a fantastic experience. It was fun working with Chef Marc. He was great at explaining everything and what we needed to do. He kept us moving and entertained the entire time. The meal turned out fantastic as well. My other team members and I are already looking into other Cozymeal experiences for when we get back home.

Highly suggest booking Marc’s class. Not only did we learn how to cook some great food, but the evening felt like a night spent with dear friends. A pleasant surprise which is not included in the description is many of the recipes come from or are inspired by his Italian girlfriend Simona’s Grandmother, so you are getting a very authentic experience. All the recipes use minimal ingredients but come together in spectacular fashion. Thank you again Marc and Simona, my girlfriend was very impressed with this unique date experience.
Diana

Marc was super welcoming and passionate about cooking. His house was nice and homey. My boyfriend and I chose to take his Paella class to experience a dish that we’ve never really had before as we both enjoy cooking and try new foods. Marc took his time to explain his reasoning for why he chose certain ingredients and the techniques. Had a chance to prepare and clean squid for the first time! We are already planning to make one of the tapas ourselves to start. This class definitely made me want to visit Barcelona in the future :) We look forward to attending another class of Chef Marc’s to continue learning from him.

I booked a "Cooking Class - Trip to Italy" as a BD gift for my husband. I had to reschedule the class, but Chef Marc was so flexible and nice to find him another available spot.
My husband really enjoyed the class, especially learning how to make pesto sauce.
Thanks Chef Mark :)

Chef Marc was wonderful, fun and engaging. He allowed us to both sit back and sip wine while also encouraged us to put our bodies into the pasta making! He was eager to answer all our cooking questions and helped teach us 4 yummy plates (pasta, calamari, frittata, and tiramisu). Was such a great time with my coworkers. Thanks again, Marc!

Marc's class was fabulous! We had such a great time learning to cook patatas bravas, pan con tomate and seafood paella. Very simple dishes that were made even more delicious with little tricks and tips Marc guided us through along the way. He was extremely knowledgable and professional, yet adaptable to my crazy crew. Great experience!

Chef Marc did a great job. My girlfriend and I signed up for his “Trip to Italy” and it exceeded expectations. The food was amazing at it was hands on all the way. But that is expected, the extra was Marc comments on cooking in general. Products to use, approach to prepping and stories that added color to the dinner. We would do it again

This was our first class with Cozymeal and Chef Marc made us feel right at home. All of the food was incredibly delicious! Chef Marc let us be as hands on as we felt comfortable, yet also took the reigns so that we could eat and enjoy our food while the paella was cooking. All of the ingredients were fresh and tasted amazing. His apartment had an incredible city view, and the kitchen and dining space were clean and nicely set up which all led to an incredible ambiance for learning how to cook some tasty food! We had a great time cooking with Chef Marc and highly recommend taking one of his classes!

I never dared to cook Paella before meeting Chef Marc. It seemed like a complicated, meticulous dish that took a long time to make. These are exactly the preconceived notions that Chef Marc wants to break! He teaches you a simple and easy way to make authentic Spanish style Seafood Paella that is so packed with flavor that you will think you had died and gone to Spain!
Along with the paella, we also had a Seasonal Tomato Salad with burrata and olives. Super fresh and super tasty! I also loved his Patatas Bravas! Perfectly cooked potatoes-- crunchy and savory on the outside and soft and pillowy inside. To finish, an amazing Catalan-style Caramelized Custard Cream! Sweet, smooth, rich and creamy with a hint of citrus. Deadly!
Chef Marc cares passionately about his traditional Spanish cuisine, his ingredients and his food. He takes a lot of care to make sure you take away the best of his knowledge, techniques, his heritage and of course, his cooking! Have some wonderful paella on his balcony overlooking the Embarcadero and the Bay!

He seemed distracted. I think he was dealing with his own restaurant issues at same time. Wasn’t engaging with our group at all. Didn’t seem to care how we were doing. Should have put each step in the chat box since some of us had different stoves with varying temperatures. Disappeared at times and I just felt in the end, we could have done this without him if he sent the recipe ahead of time. Wasn’t the experience I think we all anticipated.

Marc was excellent. The written instructions were not clear. It made it difficult to be prepared.

This was our third online class, 2nd with cozymeal and was the worst of the three. The recipe was good, but the level of attention from Chef Marc was not what we hoped for or experienced with the last classes.
I truly felt he was cooking a different dish for someone else and checked in with us occasionally. Typically, throughout the cooking experience we learned a new technique or something about the Chef. He was clearly in a hurry and doing something else so he didn't spend much time on background or explanations.
He asked everyone to mute their microphones but when one person didn't he never insisted on it which was extremely distracting. The class started 15 minutes late.
I think he has the ability to do a good online class...he just needs to give it his full attention. I would book with cozymeal again, but would think hard before booking with him.

Marc was a good host, the video quality and lag time left some to be desired as it was real easy to miss the steps.
Amy
09 Jan 2022
This was very rushed, and the instructions were really lacking. The ingredients list sent prior to the class was not clear, and the chef did not use the same ingredients / quantities as us.
Overall, we would not recommend taking this class.
Rachael
28 Dec 2021
This was a rather expensive class for the quality. The instructor called in late and filmed on a phone. The video and sound quality were poor. It was only an hour long. We spent just as much time doing prep work as the work we did during the call. This was quite a bit more expensive than a class with sur la table and no where near the quality.
Sue
26 Dec 2021
Took an online empanadas class with Marc, and while at the end of it we were glad we experienced this, we didn't totally love the class. 1) The biggest challenge was how it felt so rushed by the chef, as it sounded like he had another class to teach right after ours. We were stressed and I can sense that others were also stressed and missing the instructions from Marc. 2) online class was too big with total 17 different families/couples/friends calling in, so obviously no time to properly introduce anybody including the chef himself. 3) Overall, we felt the class itself added little value to the recipes provided. It would've been great if the chef could spend the first 5 minutes introducing himself, about the dish in historical/cultural contexts etc but he rushed into ingredient list and the instruction so it felt as if he was running a commercial kitchen where we were his sous chefs. Not exactly what I was hoping for. 4) last point is perhaps more personal, but while the empanadas turned out well they were a tiny bit bland to our taste.
Lisa
28 Feb 2022
Compared to other chefs we’ve tried, this was a disappointment. He was frequently distracted and talking to people off camera. He was all business and never took the time to even tell us anything about himself. He knew this was a birthday party among sisters but never mentioned it. I had told him before the class that I was especially interested in learning how to make the dough; however, an hour before class began, he messaged that he wanted us to make the dough ahead of time. Turns out he had another class starting 90 min after our class started so everything was rushed.
Randi Smith
23 Feb 2022
Chef Marc was kind of busy doing other things, and it wasn’t his best class. He was in his restaurant kitchen, but his attention was constantly on something they were doing there, even though he told us the restaurant was closed. We did not have a chance to get to know him. Also, he did not have a good camera setup, we could hardly see his workstation, and no camera overhead to get a good view. Also, he seemed reluctant to show us a finished empanada, saying they were still in the oven. He did take one out before it was done, to show us, after we asked.
Judy Mills
23 Feb 2022
Chef Marc was very distracted. Other people were coming in and out of what looked like a restaurant kitchen. We had to ask questions to continue with our vague instructions. He obviously wanted to end our class. We even had to ASK to see the finished product (empanadas). My 3 sisters and I were all disappointed as we have had 2 other good experiences with Cozymeal in the past 4 months.
Gina
14 Feb 2022
He started the class late. I expected the chef to be on camera but, he never showed his face or any of the food being prepared! A bit disappointed for the price I paid.
Alden
02 Feb 2022
We signed up for our recent Cooking With Bourbon class to do as a family activity after having a great experience with our previous CozyMeal class. Unfortunately we were very disappointed in this class and ended up leaving 20 minutes in. The instructor did not explain any part of the directions, did not have good connection/view of what he was doing, and did not even try to get to know any of the class members. We consider ourselves to be pretty good in the kitchen and could not follow along with this class.
This was super disappointing especially since we had had such a great experience with our previous class (chef Roxy), but now are hesitant to sign up for future Cozymeal classes.

Internet on his side was spotty so that made it difficult to hear the instructions. Felt a little rushed because the session started late. Dough was the best I have ever made and the empanadas turned out fantastic.

Some technical difficulties hindered our experience. We could never get the zoom link to work on our iPad.this was a multigenerational gift experience for my 86 year old mother. We had fun, despite the problems. Cooking time for chicken needed to be more precise. It came out dry. Dessert was excellent. Potatoes were pretty good.

The recipe directions were not complete. There was no mention to add more water, actually quite a bit was needed, and no mention of kneading for 10 minutes. 1 teaspoon of salt should list as table salt.
I was disappointed in the focaccia bread - dry and tough but I guess that was the problem with the cook and not the instructor. The pesto rosso was delicious !! All in all, it was a fun experience and we enjoyed the group and our instructor Marc. Thank you.

This is not a review for Chef Marc but rather a review for Cozymeal in general. I was supposed to attend a virtual cooking class with Chef Marc on Saturday 1/23 but was sent the Zoom link for a class that had already occurred on 1/22, which of course was an expired link. I have emailed them and followed up again within the past several days and have yet to hear a response. So far my experience with Cozymeal has reflected poor customer service and wasted money...again, this is a review for Cozymeal and not Chef Marc, as we were looking forward to attend his class!

Food was not seasoned well so it lacked flavour. Instructor wasn't overly personable and there was little to no interactions between participants.
