Kamilla, our chef was informative, attentive and very personable. She helped us make such easy yet rich flavorful Thai food. I liked that we got the option taste each food one at A time. The cooking class was everything I hoped for and more! We only had 3 tables which gave private feel which was perfect for my boyfriend’s birthday gift. However, one thing is that one of the participants turned out to be a live streamer and he was distracting. Chef and the class was perfect, but may be in the future, you pre-screen participants to see if they plan on bringing a full production. Otherwise, thank you for a wonderful experience!! Thank you, Kamilla!!!

We had an amazing sushi cooking experience to celebrate my husband’s birthday. From the very beginning, they responded very quickly to messages and were always available and attentive. The experience was fun, pleasant, and truly special. I was very grateful for the opportunity to learn about the origins of everything and a bit of the history behind sushi, which made it even more meaningful. I would definitely do this again in the future and highly recommend it.

We weren’t exactly sure what to expect, but it was an awesome experience. We made sushi with Kamilla and it was soooo fresh, tasty, and fun! We really enjoyed learning different techniques and trying so many variations of sushi. It was a great time (and a lot of food - go hungry)! The cooking space was nice, too.

Booked the class A Vegetarian Taste of Asia with Chef Liila in North Hills

Chef Liila has the most beautiful, perfect property I have ever seen. It is completely full of edible trees, plants, and bushes -- it feels like some sort of incredible botanical garden where everything is edible. From kinds of guava I've never seen before to types of kale I've never heard of to a rare Brazilian fruit that was absolutely foreign to me, this property has everything. And her food! The flavors were so beautiful and thoughtful, and the presentations were great. I can't wait till it's warm again to try and make Chef Liila's granita!

Listen, it was fine. She was amazing and super sweet. We did, however, ask for Kosher, and she had no idea aboyut that so our food restrictions were not relayed to her. And then when we did tell her that we're Kosher she wasn't clear on whether or not the ingredients had shellfish in it or not. Also, we did not have a choice in protein which is what the class had explained that we would, or that was the impression I was under. The main dish was wayyyyy too salty, the beef had been pre-seasoned and in my opinion inedible. Other than that she was wonderful and we learned things. It was fun.

We had the pleasure of cooking Chinese dishes. I learned so much but what was very helpful and I will incorporate is the process of frying my food to get the crispy texture while keeping the tenderness. Chef Marc was awesome and very knowledgeable and made the experience amazing.

Kamilla Kurmanbekova is outstanding! She has you do put the entire meal together, explains how and why you add the ingredients you do, shows you how to chop and cut like an expert chef, and she is a gifted conversationalist, -- making you feel welcomed, appreciated and valued. This Vietnamese cooking class was the very best cooking class I've ever taken.

A fantastic date night and overall experience!! We learned a lot about Thai cuisine and how to cook fresh and delicious meals. The chef instructor was friendly and gave us great pointers on cooking in general. It’s amazing how easy it is to make delicious and fresh meals at home, we just needed some guidance! Thank you for a great anniversary dinner/ experience. We can’t wait to try your other cooking courses and even your art classes!!

Absolutely incredible. Clear and helpful guidance. We were with Kamilla who answered all our questions and provided multiple opportunites to practice. The class came with notes afterwards so I didn't need to take notes. We left encouraged and inspired to cook. I've taken a couple of cooking classes with too much lecture or too little directives. Kamilla had a perfect balance between doing and talking.

This class was exceptional. Not only was everything well prepared and set up, but Camille (spelling?) was such a great chef, host, and kind person. The other guests there became instant friends. I highly recommend this class and looking forward to another class.

We had a great time with the Cozymeal cooking class. Marc was a lot of fun, and the space was cozy, well-organized, and felt like home. It was the perfect setting to cook and bond. The recipes were simple (thanks to Marc’s prep work) and everything turned out delicious. We also appreciated that Marc was happy to let us take our time enjoying the dinner and accommodated the extra time.

Really fun and comfortable experience taking a cooking class here. The class is in a converted house, which makes for a really interesting space that can accommodate cooking, a dining area, and plants and an outdoor garden that provide some of the ingredients you cook with! We took the Distinctive Tastes of Thailand class - food was delicious, and I appreciated learning about each individual ingredient and how it contributes to the recipe. I'm not much of a cook, but I felt at ease and empowered in the class, and came away with a some new skills, knowledge and recipes in my arsenal.

Took the class with Kamilla Kurmanbekova; she did an excellent job taking us through the courses, explaining why we were doing things a certain way, and the result was amazing dishes. She kept us entertained throughout the process and kept it casual while still being informative. Would highly recommend giving it a shot.

I had an incredible experience in Chef Mark’s Thai cooking class! He taught us how to make amazing dishes like som tum, tom kha gai, and pad see ew, and made the entire process so much fun. Mark is not only knowledgeable and talented, but he’s also super nice, helpful, and has a great sense of humor. I learned a ton of new cooking techniques, and his teaching style made it all feel so approachable—even for a beginner like me. I can’t wait to sign up for more classes with him. Highly recommend!

I write this while eating my delicious leftovers for breakfast...! We had an incredible time yesterday. It was a perfectly planned and executed session, resulting in a stellar meal spanning mainland and Chinese-American classics. Marc is knowledgable, charming, fun and inspiring on so many levels, and I can't wait to return to learn something new from him. Not to be missed!

This class was amazing! We had so much fun learning Chinese recipes (some completely new, some that we had eaten for years). And it was probably one of the most delicious meals we've ever had, ever. Highly recommended :)

Gladys Tseng . August, 2024

Booked the class Dive into Dim Sum with Chef Jennifer in Woodland Hills

Chef Gus was personable, helpful, n great at teaching the class. I am a housewife who’s been cooking for 45 years, actually learnt a few new things from Chef Gus that I can apply to my own everyday cooking. I enjoyed my time in the class. The only possible improvement I can offer is with a few supplies items when we have to wait for chef Gus to pass out…those can be placed in a more central location of the space n the students can b instructed to get the supplies themselves, e,g. Water for the bao dough, Saran Wrap to cover dough, as well as take out containers. Thank you!

Chef Stevie was amazing. Super knowledgeable, encouraging, and the food turned out really good! We ended up needing to get a midnight snack after, but a lot of other people in the class seemed to have leftovers -- it's a good amount of food, but if you're really hungry, you'll want more.
