Advanced Pasta: An Italian Heritage
with Chef Ryan
in San Francisco (Mission)
Great introduction to the science of pasta and the landscape of things you can do with 4 ingredients. We got to explore color and texture and make 3 very different pastas (and 3 meals worth of food) in the 2-hour session. Definitely recommended.

We had a great time learning how to make pasta. Chef Ryan does a great job ensuring we get an opportunity to do everything plus enjoy his talented cooking. Thank you for the great experience and tips we can use in our own kitchen!

Chef Ryan is a rockstar. I gave this class to my boyfriend for Christmas and had no idea what to expect. Needless to say, we were blown away not only by how good the food ended up being, but how great of a teacher Chef Ryan was and how hilarious he is! We really enjoyed ourselves and can't wait to try another of his classes AND to visit his new pasta shop on Fillmore.

Loved the experience. While I do wish there was more hands-on things to do in the class, learning how to make pasta was a wonderful way to spend a Sunday early afternoon with my boyfriend (it was a surprise Christmas gift/date for us both).
Chef Ryan is funny, chill, and down to earth. I liked the vibe he set out, and the 2.5 hours breezed by. And my goodness, the FOOD. My favorite from the menu was the Strascinati "Guisantes" (with pea green strascinati pasta) – holy sh*t, lemon marscapone paired with the bright greens made this party in my mouth that left my jaw hanging. Freshest, tastiest pasta dish I've tasted that I can proudly say I contributed to with my own two hands!
Hoping to take more of his classes down the line. :) Thanks, Chef Ryan!

Chef Ryan was amazing! We lucked out and it was just me and my boyfriend so we got a very personal experience. The pasta was great and he showed us how easy it really is to make! I want to start making all my pasta fresh from now on. Highly recommend Chef Ryan and can't wait to go to his restaurant when it opens! :)

Chef Ryan was amazing! We lucked out and had a very intimate group (just Ryan, myself, and my best friend). The pasta was SO AMAZING. Especially the homemade rabbit sausage the chef had ready for the class. We'll be taking more classes with Ryan!

Chef Ryan was awesome! He was incredibly friendly, responsive to questions, and knowledgable of his craft. There were lots of couples at our class, and I think everyone left thinking this was a lovely (and delicious) date night. We especially appreciated that Chef Ryan showed us how to prepare some less common dough recipes and pasta shapes. One note: even though the title of the class is "Advance Pasta Making", my date and I went in without any previous pasta making experience and were completely fine.

Chef Ryan was an excellent person for our group to look to cook from. We had a party of 6 and it was a surprise birthday party for my fiance. I was a little anxious as to how the night was going to turn out but everybody had a great time! He was very accommodating to all our needs and everyone of us got to make pasta. The pasta dishes were all delicious as well. Don't hesitate to book this chef for your event!

Incredibly well paced in its execution. Chef Ryan was seriously the best. You could tell he really thought it all out, knowing when to have us watch him, and when to let us take ownership. It was just an all around fun, insightful, and interesting experience. Highly recommend to anyone considering taking this course.

We had a great time at Chef Ryan's Pasta Class! The class size was perfect -- large enough to enjoy the social aspect but small enough that it felt like an intimate & hands-on experience -- and the recipes were delicious. Ryan did a great job balancing the informative & demo-like aspects of the class with hands-on participation, and it was a lot of fun working in a commercial kitchen space. Definitely recommend this class for all pasta lovers!

I gave this class as a holiday gift to my boyfriend, and we really enjoyed our evening with Chef Ryan. There were seven of us in total in the class with a range of ages and cooking background, and he was able to cater to everyone's questions and skill level. We brought a bottle of wine to enjoy while we cooked and it was just a perfect, chill Thursday night - highly recommend for other couples or even singles looking to meet people.

Israeli Fusion Menu

Chef Lee blends flavors from all around the world and has such a beautiful personality. Learning from her is definitely a highly enjoyable experience! She is excellent at teaching basic cooking skills that will inspire and encourage you to get back in the kitchen. Her food makes you feel healthy and strong but in no way do you feel like you are sacrificing flavor. Loved the lamb meatballs and tahini dressing!

This truly was a Moroccan feast. Everything was incredible, from the simple, refreshing carrot salad to the perfectly balanced orange blossom cake with fresh figs. Chef Nicole is a very knowledgeable teacher and has great stories from her travels around the world!

Overall great experience. One feedback, it would have been nice if he were more friendly and approachable. He seemed to pick his favorites and was unfortunately not as nice to the rest. I thanked him before leaving and only got a staring glare. This was actually for my birthday so it just would have been a nicer experience if he weren't so unapproachable to the people he perhaps didn't like as much.

Amazing! Chef Ryan was so authentic and kind. His passion for teaching and food shows in a really comfortable and genuine way. You can tell that he really cares about what he does. This was my first Cozymeal class and was initially fearful that I'd mess everything up but Chef Ryan's approach in teaching made me feel that I can try making any of these dishes at home. My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed his class and have already recommended others to take this class :)

Comfort Foods of the Mediterranean
with Chef Jess
in San Francisco (Pacific Heights)
"Healthy" food gets a bad reputation for being flavorless and boring but Chef Jess turns the table on that notion and teaches you how to make flavorful, tasty food that's also good for you!
Her Reimagined Pad Thai is complex, fresh and tasty. I loves me my meats and noodles but you won't miss those at all in this dish! The Kale, Chickpea and Sun-dried Tomato Salad is both hearty and flavorful; and I could eat the Cowboy Caviar Dip with a side of chips all day! Finally, the Spiced Chocolate Almond Butter cake was super chocolaty, moist and dense; with hints of sweet potato and cayenne pepper. Delish! The best part is that they're all super simple to make!
Chef Jess' apartment is a beautifully decorated space that's welcoming, warm and comfortable-- much like Chef Jess herself! Very personable, super friendly and a joy to be around. It's hard to come up with a better way to spend an afternoon!

Chef Ryan was great! My husband and I have made pasta before, but nothing ever turned out like the meals we ate during this class. It was a good balance of leaning, watching, and doing. This class is great for people of all cooking levels - nothing is too challenging. It was also fun to bring your own bottle of wine and chat with everyone around you. I highly recommend the class and look forward to taking more through Cozymeal.

This was a class that I booked for my pasta-loving husband. We had previously tried making pasta at home following recipes, but always never knew if the results we were getting were consistent with the end goals of the recipe. Chef Ryan was welcoming and patient, and he taught us three great doughs, and ways to shape them with or without equipment. He was also quick to answer all our questions, and even did a small demonstration to show us what he was talking about when mixing pasta by hand. Looking forward to testing out our new found knowledge in our kitchen!

We loved our Cozymeal experience with Chef Ryan. My wife and I attended along with 6 other guests. It lasted 2.5 or 3 hours and we made 3 different dishes. It was a really nice space and fit the 8 people who attended very comfortably. There was a good amount of participation and we learned a lot about some pretty unique pastas. Chef Ryan was extremely knowledgable and had some cool stories to share about Italian pasta legends :) The food was incredibly delicious. It was BYOW (wine) which was cool. Over the past couple of years, I've been to 5 or 6 cooking classes at various venues (not through Cozymeal), and this was by far the best one.
