Chef Landi was so much fun! My husband and I were the only 2 people in the class (the other group canceled) but Chef Landi's vibrant personality did not make it feel awkward at all. We loved hearing about his life and chef experience. The experience was very hands-on, which we loved, and we had a delicious meal together. Highly recommend!

Chef Landi was so sweet and an amazing instructor! My boyfriend and I got very lucky to have a private event as the other people had cancelled. Chef Landi took his time explaining and demonstrating everything while also allowing us to do it ourselves. We had an amazing time making all of the dishes. Everything was delicious. We will definitely be coming back!! Thank you chef Landi for a memorable experience.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of attending the Southern Italy on a Plate cooking class at Chef Landi's home in South Philadelphia this weekend, and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. From the moment we arrived, Chef Landi made us feel incredibly welcome, sharing stories and insights into the cuisine and culture of Southern Italy, as well as his home country of Albania. Chef Landi’s knowledge of Italian cooking was evident throughout the class. He walked us through each recipe while explaining the techniques, ingredients, and tips that made each dish work perfectly. We began with a Caprese salad for an appetizer, learning how to properly layer the fresh tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil, then topping it with homemade pesto and a balsamic glaze. For the entree, we made Potato Gnocchi Bolognese. Step by step, he showed us how to make the Bolognese sauce and then how to roll, cut, and shape the Gnocchi's from scratch. We finished the meal with a Vanilla Crème Brulé, which was exceptional. What really stood out was Chef Landi’s ability to make everyone feel comfortable in the kitchen, whether they were experienced cooks or beginners. He was patient, approachable, and attentive, ensuring that everyone had a great time and left with new culinary knowledge. We highly recommend Chef Landi’s Southern Italy on a Plate class to anyone looking to dive into authentic Italian cuisine. We had a great time. His house fits up to 6 people for a class but there are other options for bigger groups. Thanks Chef!

We had a fantastic time with Chef Landi - he is a great instructor in explaining how to prepare the dishes that we feasted on, and he has a passion for what he makes that is infectious. We had a nice group and all seemed to enjoy not only the process of making our meal but also eating it! We will probably return for a future meal with Chef Landi!

A top-tier chef with a top-tier attitude. Landi is extremely kind, informative (both regarding food as well as international travel through stories), and funny. This is our second time with Landi, and we will certainly come back again to learn how to create another delicious meal.

Chef Landi was a great and I’ll definitely be making these dishes at home. I felt the others in our group were pretty rude and inconsiderate, but he didn’t rush anyone despite going well over the intended class time. He explained why he did things as he went, how you could change the recipe if you wanted a different flavor, and even supplied boxes to take home leftovers. Very friendly, patient, and kind. Thank you for letting us into your home!

My friend and I had an exceptional evening with Chef Landi. This was my third experience with the Chef and I find him to be wonderful! Not only superb recipes, but a wonderful teacher as well. Chef is affable, knowledgeable and has wonderful stories of his cooking experiences both in the states and abroad. Every time I leave, I want to cook more and try these great recipes. I’m not a vegan, but no one would ever know these are vegan recipes. Delicioso!

Phenomenal experience. I told everyone that I could about it! Everything about my experience was cozy, fun, hands-on and informative. Taking the vegan class introduced me to other vegans who shared their tips and tricks along with Chef Landi. I was one week into my vegan journey when I attend this event. Thank you for making the transition smoother and less more creative!

Chef Landi is personable and very knowledgeable. Appreciated his instruction in how to make pasta, which I never tried to do before. Also, helpful to learn how to use a knife to cut tomatoes and other ingredients. Most of all just appreciated Chef Landi, who is very down to earth and made this, my first experience, a memorable one. We will highly recommend him to family and friends. Thank you, Chef!

Chef Landi's Italian cooking class was an absolute delight! We learned how to make a classic Caprese Salad, fluffy homemade gnocchi (tastier than any restaurant version!), and a decadent Vanilla Crème Brûlée – all dishes that will impress at my next dinner party.
Chef Landi's expertise shone through. He explained each step clearly, offering tips and tricks that elevated our cooking game. But the class wasn't just informative, it was a blast! Chef Landi's infectious enthusiasm and witty humor kept the atmosphere lively and engaging.
Whether you're a seasoned cook or just starting out, Chef Landi's class is a fantastic way to expand your culinary repertoire and have a ton of fun in the process. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a delicious and interactive learning experience!

Chef Landi was such a lovely human. His story (which is far from over! We can’t wait to keep in touch and eat at his restaurant, read his book, and listen to his podcast❤️), his interest in my partner and I’s stories (she studied abroad very close to where Chef Landi was from and they had a blast with their Italian and Albanian reminiscing☺️), as well as of course his amazing teaching skills in the kitchen made for an unforgettable night.

This was definitely more than a cooking class. It was an unforgettable experience created by Chef Landi. From the time we arrived until the time we left, Chef went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. He kept the cooking and the conversation flowing. The class was very interactive on both a group and individual level. It is obvious how passionate and knowledgeable Chef is about cooking and food in general. There were so many little tips Chef Landi shared that we will be incorporating when we cook at home. It definitely is a learning experience for all whether you are a beginner or expert cook. If you are even considering taking one of Chef Landi's classes, do not hesitate. I guarantee you will not regret it. You won't just cook a dish, you will make a masterpiece of flavor. Grazie Chef Landi. We will be back soon!

Chef Landi is a treasure. He is so personable and fun. The food was incredible and his home was welcoming and warm. I was there for a valentines treat with my husband and this was the perfect date!! However there was a beautiful young girl in her 20’s there who came alone and fit right in so you don’t need to be in a couple to enjoy this adventure. It was just lovely, start to finish. And what a finish. (Banana bread pudding) * the chef was easily able to adapt the menu for an allergy too and that was super helpful and noteworthy

Chef Landi was great! He explained everything he was doing well. He answered questions that were related to the meal, as well as questions that were tangential to the activity at hand (e.g. questions regarding how to make the meal vegan friendly, common vegan friendly ingredients, etc.). Upon request, Chef Landi even kindly put on the Eagles football game for us (the game started toward the end of our dinner).

Chef Landi was great, and this experience was 100% worth it! I booked pretty far in advance, about two months, which is necessary since Chef Landi's classes are so popular. We arrived about 10-15 minutes before the start time, which I learned was probably a bit early. I think it is ideal to arrive about 5 minutes ahead of time so you can get in and settled, open your wine (or drink of choice that you brought with you to accompany your meal), and chat with the chef a bit. Chef Landi was thorough and took his time throughout each of the four courses. He provided tips and tricks on cooking in general, knife skills, and everything in between. He was so friendly, answered every single question we had, and told us stories of his experiences in Albania, Italy, and the US. The other people that were in our class were a great addition to the experience! We had fun getting to know each other, chatting, and learning to cook the courses together. I would recommend this class 10 time out of 10! Enjoy!
Lisa

Our food was delicious and his kitchen is warm and inviting. We met some new friends and had many laughs and good conversation over dinner. 10/10 would recommend Chef Landi!

We just left Chef Landi’s for his Southern Italy gnocchi class and it was AMAZING. The food was absolutely incredible, he was a fantastic host, and the other 4 guests were great company. We would absolutely recommend! Hopefully all other CozyMeal chefs are as good, because we plan on visiting some others! Wonderful experience!

I have 0 cooking skills or experience and really enjoyed my evening with Chef Landi. He gave some basic tips and suggestions for chopping vegetables, sautéing, some best practices when preparing pasta and sauces and was really kind and patient with our small group. The meal we prepared was delicious and I definitely feel empowered to (poorly) attempt these dishes again at home ?. Chef Landi was a very gracious host with a great apartment, to boot. I felt very comfortable being in his space. My girlfriend and I shared the experience with another couple we did not know beforehand, but just by virtue of the small and intimate space, we were fast friends for the evening. I definitely reccomend this experience to anyone who wants to plan a fun date night or celebrate with family and friends. Thanks again, Chef Landi!

Our kids gave us a gift card for Cozymeal and we were fortunate enough to select Chef Landi and his Italian menu for our dinner. Chef Landi's skills in the kitchen were amazing. He was engaging and warm and was not intimidating as you may expect. His personality set the stage for fun and laughter. His ability to create a relaxing and engaging environment gave me the knowledge to go home and make this fabulous dinner for my friends. I would highly recommend Chef Landi for a couples, friends or family night. Very worthwhile.

My dad and I had the most amazing experience with Chef Landi. I had bought this for my dad’s birthday a few months ago and we weren’t exactly sure what to think going into it, but it exceeded our expectations. The food was beyond delicious and Chef Landi was very throughout at explaining the steps of each course. I was really happy to even take home a few tips (something as simple as cutting onions) as well. I can’t wait to book another experience with him!

More importantly, he took the time to show us how he was preparing each part of the meal and made sure to answer each of the many questions that we were rapid firing at him. He also gave great general tips for cooking and had us learn by doing things ourselves. You can tell that Chef Landi actually enjoys teaching others how to cook. This was our first experience with Chef Landi. We will certainly be back

Chef Landi is not only a skilled chef but also a talented teacher who is remarkably knowledgeable about cooking and curious about the world around him. He's personable and welcoming and was happy to answer all the questions had about different techniques or about what we were making! It's not hard to see that he loves what he does, and it's easy to leave his class with a shared enthusiasm for food and learning, not to mention a few new recipes to spice up your culinary repertoire. I can't wait to return!

Best meal I’ve ever had! He was accommodating to allergy needs (reach out to him ahead of time, but he will be no matter what). Overall an absolutely amazing experience and I recommend to anyone visiting or that even lives in Philly! 10/10!

My girlfriend and I had a fantastic time with Chef Landi this afternoon for our anniversary. Our experience started on time, and Chef Landi had everything prepared beforehand -- he even made his own tomato sauce, pesto, and stock for us to incorporate into our meals.
Chef Landi is extremely conversational, and makes all individuals regardless of their past cooking experience feel very comfortable. He teaches technique, provides practical tips, and shares stories about his life experiences and from cooking with Cozymeal.
We really appreciated Chef Landi's attention to maintaining a COVID-19-friendly environment that was extremely clean, masked, and socially-distanced. He also encouraged photos for those that like to snap away.
Overall, 10/10 experience and will definitely be coming back (maybe with some friends) to try another menu.
PS -- the creme brulee was to die for.
Phillip

Myself and 3 friends were looking for an awesome, out of the box cooking experience and Chef Landi delivered all that and more. He was extremely welcoming to us and made us feel comfortable right away. We learned so many helpful tips that we will take with us into our own kitchens, and he even had printed out recipes of all the food we made ready for us to take with. On top of it all, the food we made (creme brûlée, caprese salad, and gnocchi Bolognase) was some of the BEST food we’ve ever had. We would highly recommend Chef Landi and would absolutely go back to cook with him again. Thanks Chef Landi for an awesome night!

He told great stories about his culinary journey and we learned a lot of helpful cooking tips. Would recommend any of Chef Landi's classes! 10/10 experience!

Our experience with Chef Landi was absolutely incredible! Chef Landi was a wonderful teacher and spent extra time making sure we really perfected each course, from preparation to the final presentation. Chef Landi was extremely professional, knowledgeable, personable, and helpful. He made us feel so comfortable from the moment we arrived. I loved learning about his experiences working as a chef in different places and his ability to tie each of his experiences into a delicious menu. Each course was absolutely amazing and we are so eager to recreate this menu using everything he taught us! Thanks Chef Landi!

My wife and I had an amazing experience with Chef Landi. He welcomed us with his friendly personality. We chopped, diced, and prepped our meal while Chef Landi shared some of his vast culinary knowledge. The end product was a delicious 4 course meal that we now know how to make at home thanks to Chef Landi. I would recommend this class to everyone.

Great food and better company! My boyfriend surprised me for my birthday with a Cozy Meal Reservation and words can't explain how much I enjoyed the experience! Chef Landi provided an amazing step by step lesson to create the dish that was easy, informative and fun. The experience as a whole was intimate, intentional and a 10/10 experience I would recommend to everyone I know ( which I already am ). We enjoyed the food, which was delicious, but what brought it over the top was Landi's energy and personality that was such a pleasure to be around! This is a must!! We plan on scheduling another :)

One of the best cooking classes in the Philadelphia region! Took the gnocchi cooking class and the food was unbelievable! Chef Landi is very knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming! We had a blast and great experience for a date night out during the pandemic and felt very safe. Can’t wait to take another class. Would highly recommend Chef Landi to all!

We had such a wonderful night with Chef Landi! He gave us great cooking tips, had us be involved in every step of the cooking process, and the food was superb. He even printed out the recipes for us to take home and try. Not to mention how lovely his company was - such a joy to just chat with him and hear his life stories. I also would like to point out that he made every effort to conduct his class safely during this pandemic; everything was clean, masks were worn, distance was kept. Highly recommend Chef Landi’s cooking classes!!

Chef Landi was a delight! He was very careful to follow any and all safety precautions during our visit and made us feel right at home. The way he intertwined the cooking instruction with his own life experience with food made it all the more enjoyable. And to top it off the food was amazing! I would definitely recommend this experience to everyone.

I booked this evening for my boyfriend birthday because we both love to cook and love to learn new things in the kitchen. The experience was more than expected and I have to thank Chef Landi for that. He made the night so much fun and so personal. By the end of the evening it felt like we were chatting with an extended family member! I would highly recommend a class with Chef Landi if you’re looking for a special evening!

I truly loved the experience. Chief Landi was prepared, professional, passionate, and accommodating. He welcomed all questions and took his time answering questions. He was entertaining and a good storyteller. He demonstrated many cooking techniques and allowed the opportunity to perform the techniques during meal preparation.
I can’t wait to schedule another date and time again.

It was an amazing experience! Chef Landi was so personable and the food was delicious. Not only was it fun and interactive, it was educational. It was great getting to ask him questions about cooking but to also learn skills. I would recommend Cozymeal to anyone, especially Chef Landi.

So much experience in life and in the kitchen. A chef came to our house but by the end we were saying goodbye to a long time friend. Detailed in every step and accommodating to the various skill levels in our group session. I can't say enough how much we enjoyed this.

The experience my father and I had with chef Landi was amazing and well above and beyond expectations! We were immediately made to feel welcome by our gracious host. After some brief introductions and conversation about our level of cooking experience we got started. Chef Landi shared instruction, tips and tricks with us as well as some culinary history along the way. He included touching stories of some of his experiences throughout his culinary career. The food we prepared and cooked was amazing and it brought our culinary skills to the next level. As an experienced home cook, I was concerned that the we may not gain much in the way of knowledge, but I was mistaken. I'm so happy we had this experience and I can't wait to go back. Saluti!

Just delightful in every sense. This was a surprise to my wife who is aspiring to be a chef and leave her software skills behind. Chef Landi did not just host us for a delicious experience but was humble enough to give a true insight of culinary industry and what to expect in that career. He walked us through the stories of his beginnings in Italy, Canada and how he fulfilled his destiny as a top chef.
Coming back to the class, chef Landi has a style for teaching culinary where he pairs his instructions with a metaphor which makes it easy to pick things. It was very hands-on right from knife skills, chopping to making dough to detailed techniques of using pasta machine. Learning how to decide on ingredients & pairing them for making sauce was very worthful. And finally, watching chef make creme brulee from scratch, and providing intricate details of the procedure gave us a totally different perspective on how to approach it.
All in all this experience gave us a lot more than we had expected and will be marked as a memorable moment of our lives. Thanks a lot Chef Landi and we hope to see you soon for another memorable conversation.

We had a wonderful experience with Chef Landi! He was very professional, knowledgeable and engaging! Cooking is something my husband and I like to do together, and we both feel excited to have new meals to add to our repertoire! The only downside is now I have to get new attachments for our kitchen aid...lol. Thank you Chef Landi for an amazing experience neither of us will forget! Hopefully we will see you in future classes!

Had an absolutely fabulous time with Chef Landi. He is extremely knowledgable and extremely social. The food was amazing and the instruction was easy, very thourough but more than that we had a lot of fun.
I cannot praise this experience and look forward to having another class with him.

Chef Landi was a wonderful host. He was a genuine, kind person and made the evening very enjoyable. I would hope that Cozy Meal compensates these chefs appropriately. I feel $85 apiece was a lot of money for the night and that a tip was not necessary.

Chef Landi immediately made us feel at home when we arrived at his place for our Italian seafood fare class. He had the recipes prepared for us with each course so that we could follow along and take the recipes home with us to recreate. He also encouraged us to get involved in each step of the cooking process if we were willing ☺️He sprinkled in tips and tricks as he went along, and included stories about his life experiences in Albania and Philadelphia. We loved every single course as it was perfectly seasoned and you could tell truly made with love. Highly recommend this experience!

Cooking with Chef Landi was an incredibly personal experience. He made every effort to ensure we were getting what we wanted out of our cooking class. Beyond the dishes, Chef Landi shared about his fascinating life and philosophy of why he cooks. I could not have asked for a better experience.

Drawing on his Albanian heritage, Chef Landi cooks food that is influenced by the many cultures present in that region of the world. His food is beautiful to look at and even better tasting. He has a very warm and engaging soul that comes through in his food. Highly recommended!
