What a fun evening filled with tasty food and lively conversation! I highly recommend Chef Keith - he is truly talented/gifted with food pairings, cooking, presentation and wonderful stories about travel. We had a great time celebrating our anniversary! Thanks for making our special day even more special and memorable!

Chef Keith was excellent. He arrived with all of the ingredients, some of which was already cut and ready for assembly. We made a small dinner party of the event by inviting another couple to join us. My wife and I got to make the baklava and the other couple made the spanakopita, both delicious. Keith did the rest. We found him to be both knowledgeable and entertaining. The food was outstanding. it was an evening we will long remember.

This at-home cooking experience was one of a kind! Keith was professional and a great conversationalist full of experiences. He welcomed us into his home and walked us through every step in preparation of an incredible meal. All of the ingredients were fresh and of unbelievable quality. This is everything you’re looking for in a cooking class and more!

We had a wonderful evening with Chef Keith. He changed the menu to match our needs and we learned to make a full course Mediterranean dinner. He spent a lot of time with us, put us to work, and eventually enjoyed a delicious meal. He was very personable and fun.

Chef Keith delivered an incredible cajun cooking experience for my wife and I on her birthday! From the moment we met, Chef Keith made us feel very welcome and at-home. Before we even started mixing ingredients and lighting burners, Chef Keith took the time to get to know us, and vice versa. When we got into the cooking portion, Chef Keith was very meticulous in teaching us how to safely prepare the food. From making a rue, to perfectly cooking shrimp, Chef Keith took the time to explain to us the best methods for preparing 3 amazing dishes, plus the desert! Truly, one of the best experiences my wife and I have had! Thank you Chef Keith!

Chef Keith was great! I took my mom for a Mother's Day present and my sister-n-law because I love her, and we had an awesome experience. We learned a lot about how to shop for and make sushi at home while laughing, eating, and enjoying the night. I highly recommend Chef Keith!

Great informal class. Food was exceptional. Simple concepts for beginners. The menu was perfect to replicate for my family which includes both meat lovers and vegetarians. If you’re looking for something formal or uptight, this experience may not be for you. Lots of fun and laughs.

Alex

28 Feb 2023

My experience with Chef Keith was outstanding. To be honest, I was slightly wary about having a cooking class in someone else's home that I had never met, but Keith made the experience comfortable and welcoming from start to end. Extremely clean/tidy home and everything was well planned and set up nicely for our class. He offered the right amount of guidance and advice, while also encouraging us to take initiative and really explore the recipes for ourselves. Give Keith a shot - he won't disappoint!

Stella

13 Feb 2023

This event was a birthday gift from our daughter. We had delectable sushi made to our preferred taste with products that were out of this world! Chef Keith was funny and he put us all at ease. We had so much fun.

Raven

28 Jan 2023

Chef Keith reached out to reschedule with me on Jan 16th. I agreed to rescheduling but never heard back from Chef Keith. Very disappointed that my gf and I couldn’t experience this.

Ida zeiler

23 Jan 2023

There really aren't words to adequately describe how phenomenal Chef Keith and the entire experience was. He was professional yet laid back. He gave instruction yet made us comfortable learning new skills. The food was top tier, beyond our expectations. He showed us new ways to harmonize flavors. Our group of 2 couples are still talking about how wonderful the entire night was. We are already looking forward to another world class dining experience with Chef Keith! Thank you cozymeal for creating this opportunity.

Cleat

21 Jan 2023

Fantastic evening filled with personal touches that accentuated the dining and elevated the food to an unforgettable experience. The mentoring and friendship extended to us by Chef Keith on our Mediterranean journey has us excitedly anticipating future classes.

Raymond

16 Dec 2022

The bad news is that we can no longer order gumbo and dirty rice at a restaurant. Keith taught us how to do it right at home! The good news: with simple, almost everyday ingredients, Keith showed us how to set up and cook efficiently. We learned a lot about food prep and timing. And he corrected my roux. We had a fun night and had leftovers to enjoy later, including a kick-ass bread pudding with sauce for dessert. I'd give six stars if I could. We'll definitely schedule another cooking class.

Andrew

07 Dec 2022

I’d recommend Keith 10 times out of 10 to anyone looking for not just a great meal but also a wonderful experience. We booked a private meal for our wedding dinner and he knocked it out of the park. The food was delicious, and the conversation was delightful. Love the connections we were able to make between his family’s and our families’ backgrounds. The best tovarăș.

Craig

03 Dec 2022

What a great evening of great food and fun, and that wasn’t even the best part. Chef Keith taught us so much. I was gifted a sushi set a while ago, but was intimidated by the thought of making it. Not anymore. Thanks Keith!

Sarah Christian

I would recommend chef Keith for any food event you may have

Nandor

02 Nov 2022

Chef Keith was fantastic! He is clearly a highly talented chef, but more importantly he is an excellent and patient teacher. He was able to help us feel comfortable in the kitchen and we walked away knowing we could reproduce everything from that night on our own. Overall an amazing night with good food and fun conversations!

Steven

29 Oct 2022

This was truly the experience of a lifetime. Chef Keith is amazing. Not only did he make (what I formerly thought) "the impossible" look easy but he weaved his personality into the experience. I feel honored to have been invited into his home for this. I/we will most definitely be doing this again (but a different cuisine)! I really cannot give enough stars. Do yourself a favor and book Chef Keith immediately!

Dennis

14 May 2022

Chef Keith was an interesting, informative, patient, and skilled instructor that helped a novice like me who had never made sushi before, make several rolls by the end of the class. I highly recommend this class to anyone beginner cooks out there who want to learn how to make sushi step by step, in a beginner friendly environment.

Mindy

01 May 2022

Keith was great! Everything was so organized and professional which allowed us to have fun while learning his delicious recipe! The food was fabulous. We would recommend this experience and Chef Kieth without hesitation.

Joel

06 Apr 2022

We had a fantastic night with Chef Keith! Me and my girlfriend made a four course meal with another couple. Keith's house is beautiful. He had done all of the shopping and monotonous work like organizing and dishwashing for us. He taught us tons of techniques for cooking Cajun food, and his experience really helped. He had fun kitchen stories as well as interesting methods that we'll take home with us. The meal itself was phenomenal. I loved that I helped create it too. The atmosphere was perfect and every course was above and beyond expectations. Best part was, he didn't make us do dishes!!! (Sorry to put you through all that work Keith...) Thanks again so so much for such an amazing experience. We'll keep your recipes and hopefully recreate them for our family and our friends. 10/10 I highly recommend!

Samantha

11 Dec 2021

First off: the experience making food was incredible. I went with my boyfriend for our anniversary and Keith gave us an experience we'll never forget! We both feel like we learned a ton and are confident that we could make our own poke bowls and rolls. We made so much food and all of it was delicious. Honestly we could've paid quite a bit more for the experience, seeing how much we got out of it. It is a steal! What was even better than the food was Chef Keith's personality and conversation. Learning about his background and experiences and how he ended up where he is now really was the highlight of our experience. He's just a really cool dude and can teach you a ton. Made our Vegas trip one to remember for sure. I can only say you'll do yourself a disservice by not booking this lesson!

Josiah

Great hidden gem in Vegas! Keith was very welcoming. The food was spectacular ( Mediterranean course)! Will definitely return!

So glad we took this class with Chef Keith. We learned a lot while having fun and now feel like we can make our own sushi from start to finish! Can't wait to start making our own rolls!

Jade

08 Nov 2021

Chef Keith was AWESOME. I learned so much and was super impressed by the rolls I made at the end of the night. Couldn't believe I made them. From getting some pointers on general knife skills to learning fish and sauce combinations, I can now confidently make sushi at home. Thank you again Chef Keith!

Filgie

31 Oct 2021

Sushi night with Chef Keith was amazing. He made the instructions easy to follow. Now I don't feel intimidated buying a sushi mat and start practicing on sushi making at home. The ingredients were simple, but the sushi we made were all very tasteful. Thank you Chef Keith for welcoming us in your home and for teaching us how to make delicious sushi.

Chris

12 Oct 2021

My fiance booked this class for us as a birthday gift and it truly made my birthday unforgettable! Chef Keith (Ichi) was patient, informative, and is an expert who loves what he does. We were lucky to have him with just the three of us, so we were able to have extra hands-on instruction. Chef Keith made his home very inviting and gave us many opportunities to make more rolls if we messed up. I highly recommend coming to the class hungry. At the end of the night, we were so full that we had to take our extra sushi home in containers. One of the best cooking classes we've ever taken. I can't recommend Chef Keith enough!

Andrew

04 Oct 2021

Review: Sushi Night Chef Keith is nothing short of amazing!! For sushi night, he uses only the best fish that only sushi chefs can get (for ours at least). You won't get the same fish anywhere else. The fish was top quality; rice was fresh and warm, and most of his sauces (90%) were homemade. The best rolls you'll have. He has a fun, friendly personality. Come in with an empty stomach, because he will feed you well - rolls, nigiri, hand rolls.

I wanted to give my husband an unique birthday gift. Chef Keith was a delight! He welcomed us into his lovely home. He had such patience with us. Very informative. My husband and I had a blast! The food portions were large and filling. My husband is a Bobby Flay fan, but he has added Chef Keith to that list. We are recommending Chef Keith to all our friends heading to Vegas.

Sushi night with Chef Keith was fantastic! We celebrated our daughter’s 13th birthday learning how to make sushi. We created great memories, made amazing food and enjoyed Keith’s experience immensely. We had Keith come to us and he brought everything, set up, and put us to work! We will definitely be having Keith again. Thank you so much!

My husband John & I had an instant connection with Keith. He made the entire evening so enjoyable, but more importantly he went out of his way to prepare us a seafood paella that was 'second to none' for our entree. From start to finish aka dessert, we were impressed with his talent and he left our kitchen spotless. If we could give him more than five stars, we most certainly would! Thank you Chef Keith for a most joyous experience right in our own home.

Marcus

20 Jul 2021

My wife and I booked a Cooking Class - Sushi Night with Chef Keith not knowing what to expect. We arrived and were promptly greeted by Chef Keith with humor and a warm welcome. Chef introduced us to the tools we would be working with and immediately put us to work! We learned practical skills that we plan to use in the future. We would not hesitate to book again with Chef Keith. Chef we hope you get your Sushi food truck going soon!

Chef Keith was absolutely amazing. It was 4 of us and we felt so comfortable with him. He was very funny and charismatic. The cooking experience was amazing. The food was soooo good and fulfilling.

Had a wonderful visit with Chef Keith at his home. He was welcoming from the start and taught each of us some good cooking skills. There was a lot of smiles, laughter, and getting to know his wonderful family. Made the Vegas trip special getting to know more about local Vegas life. He adjusted the heat level for each person and we left full, laughing, and ready for another class.

Desirée

22 May 2021

This was a surprise gift for my girlfriend's birthday. Definitely out of my comfort zone as she's the one who loves cooking, and while I will eat sushi, I a typically avoid seafood. All of that went out the window though. Chef Keith came out to greet us immediately on arrival. He instantly made us feel welcome and at home. We both had the most wonderful time, and everything we ate was divine! I enjoyed every dish we made in spite of my dislike for seafood (my girlfriend was so impressed!). Chef Keith is clearly an expert in his field. He is personable and conversational. By the end of the night, it felt like we had known one another forever. From our experience, he is LGBTQ+ friendly. We highly recommend him and this experience. You will learn technique as well as ingredient selection, meanwhile having fun and eating delicious food. Now go sign up for his class!

Eric

All I could say for hours is WOW! This chef was so personable, mellow, professional and still comfortable and casual at the same time. The best experience ever! We started off with meatballs and a garlic sauce he made, it was creamy and amazing! The sauces he made was all from scratch too. Next we had flaming fried cheese! The cheese was lit on fire right at our dining table! It was such a cool experience I can’t rave about it enough! Then he smoked lamb chops to perfection with the BEST salad I’ve ever had with his homemade dressing. I really mean this was THE BEST salad we’ve EVER had. The homemade dressing, fresh cucumber, fresh tomato, feta cheese and seasoning was heavenly. We ended with a dessert he made from scratch that was sweet and light, a perfect way to end such a great Greek meal experience. He cleaned up after and left us all the left overs because there was such a generous amount of food. Definitely booking him again for a sushi class next time! If you’re reading this and thinking about booking a chef do it now. Book chef Keith you won’t be disappointed and you’ll end your meal feeling happy and full! Thank you chef for the amazing at home experience.

We had a great time with Chef Keith! He sure knows his sushi, and was very friendly with all the guests. Our group was only in town for a few days so it was nice that he came to the house prepared for the event and was quick to set up. The food was DELICIOUS. He is passionate about what he does and spent a good amount of time discussing his passion with those in our group that were interested in hearing more. Highly recommend and will definitely look to book again on a future trip to the area!

Chef Keith was awesome and the experience was everything I hoped for and more. I bought this dinner/class for 4 people to celebrate my fiance's birthday, and we all had a great time. We learned some history of sushi, learned sushi-making techniques, made sushi rolls and salad and poke and poke stack, and ate the food. Seriously, the amount of food we made was staggering and some was kept as leftovers. I would highly recommend this class to anyone.

Layla

Chef Keith was professional, explained in great detail his preparation of each dish. He was well prepared, he answered all of my questions with patience, and a wealth of knowledge. Chef Keith's culinary skills were superb, the flavors of the gumbo were authentic, I felt I was back in New Orleans. The Sushi was so fresh full of flavor and beautifully prepared. The bread pudding was moist, and the spices were incredibly well balanced. His cooking classes will leave you with not just great dishes, but a wealth of knowledge into the cooking, and dining experience.
