Sea and Land - Date Night
with Chef Andrea
in South Bay & Peninsula (Palo Alto)
We had fun. The food we made was good (Surf & Turf), and we enjoyed the other couple we shared a table with.
What wasn't ideal was that I thought "At the Chef's Resident" meant their house, not a retail store. The store isn't great because everyone has to stand up to eat their dinner. Also, not being able to pair wine with a meal you spend 2 hours making is also disappointing.
One last thing: the chef was brash with the guest and rude to her staff. The standing up and no wine probably wouldn't have been as big of a downer if the chef was fun and friendly.
A year ago we did Kitchen on Fire in Berkley; I thought CrozyMeals was going to be like their experience. Fun Chef, sit-down dinner after 2 of work, and a great meal paired with wine.

Flavorful Filipino Feast
with Chef Ryan
in South Bay & Peninsula (East San Mateo)
Chef Ryan was great! My husband and I had so much fun learning about Filipino food and making such a delicious meal. Ryan was patient with us and made everything super comfortable and friendly. We ended up with a good amount of leftovers, too, so we got to have our dishes again the next night for dinner. I'd highly recommend this class to a couple looking for a fun and relaxing evening with yummy food!

Japanese Seafood Skills
with Chef Ryan
in South Bay & Peninsula (East San Mateo)
Chef Ryan walked us through the whole culinary experience like the professional he is, clearly explaining every step with humor and giving us tips for when we cook at home. Everything we made was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked, and we can’t wait to try to replicate it! As a bonus, he even rolled with it when we (accidentally) showed up half an hour early. Wonderful experience, will definitely be booking again. Thank you!

Chef Barbara was amazing! Thank you for such a wonderful night. I wasn't quite sure what to expect as I'd never taken a cooking class before. I got this as an anniversary gift for my boyfriend and it was WONDERFUL! Chef Barbara was thoughtful and patient and wonderfully prepared. We both had some dietary restrictions that she went above and beyond to accommodate and it was a joy spending a night cooking in her home! Definitely would recommend this to anyone!

French Winter Feast - Date Night
with Chef Andrea
in South Bay & Peninsula (Palo Alto)
The class was excellent. Both in terms of how clear and easy to follow the instructions were, value for money and how well the recipes turned out.
Yes, I know that in this age and times, you have plenty of resources to learn anything, especially cooking, but nothing beats the experience of doing it by yourself, handling the ingredients, mixing up things and creating an Instagram worthy, restaurant quality masterpiece.
Chef Shameem (I hope I am not mixing up her name) was excellent with her clear instructions and also kept a watchful eye on everyone to make sure the fine line between a great creation and also-ran is not crossed. Overall experience: Great!

Keto Bread Baking

The experience that my wife and I had with Chef Z was nothing short was awesome. It went beyond our expectations. She is very knowledgeable, and truly enjoys what she does. She made us feel at ease right away. She was very perceptive, is a natural teacher and it was obvious to see how much she enjoys what she does. My wife, who is an avid baker, learned many tips which says a lot about Chef Z's expertise. Highly recommend, and we look forward to her other classes in the future. We also look forward to her putting out a Keto baking recipe-book because she creates great recipes through her creativity.

Chef Ryan kindly greeted us at his apartment... Everything was all set up and ready to go! He patiently walked us through each recipe and was super informative about all the ingredients and preparation. My mom and I enjoyed every second. We loved the unique flavors that Chef Ryan used and how he incorporates his own self expression into his dishes. A true artist! I would highly recommend this class.

Tacos Two Ways
with Chef Jacob
in South Bay & Peninsula (Shoreview)
Had a great time with Chef Jacob in his San Mateo home! He's friendly, personable and loves to teach... which he's very good at! He gives simple and clear instructions and can even talk to you about the scientific processes that's going on in the food to the history of an ingredient or dish.
We got our hands dirty and made delicious farfalle al pomodoro. Such a simple dish with few ingredients yet it tasted rich and satiating! The sauce was just the right balance of tangy and sweet and the pasta was wonderfully soft and delicious! I also got to try some of his pulled pork tacos which were hearty and satisfying! His take on Mexican wedding cakes were sweet, chewy and the addition of pumpkin seeds gave it a whole other texture and flavor!
Chef Jacob specializes in "comfort food" from all cultures and cuisines and I'm positive there's something in his kitchen that will satisfy your cravings. Highly recommended!

I booked a Japanese themed cozymeal with chef Ryan as a surprise for my husband's birthday. We arrived to his apartment, where he then guided us to the spacious community room. All of the ingredients and tools were setup for us to get started, as we turned on some fun music to cook to. Overall, the food was amazing and extremely fresh. I left SO FULL and we got to take home the leftovers! I learned new techniques and how to work with crab. Chef Ryan was professional, knowledgeable, and also down to earth and friendly. Thanks for the fun night, chef!

Authentic Thai Cooking
with Chef Jirayu
in South Bay & Peninsula (Edgemar - Pacific Manor)
I had an AMAZING time with Chef Jirayu in her beautiful home! Her hospitality is bar none and goes the extra mile to make you feel welcomed, comfortable and special. She's clearly passionate about Thai cuisine and cares deeply about her ingredients, traditional methods and flavors.
If you're not one for spicy food (like myself), Chef Jirayu's dishes just might change your mind. I could not stop eating her Green Curry Eggplant, Bamboo, Chicken & Basil dish! Her Tom Yom Soup was so full of flavor, it was delicious and savory! The Spicy Mango Salad was sweet, spicy, refreshing and satisfying. And the Sticky Mango Rice... wow! I guarantee, you won't have tasted better Thai cuisine outside of Thailand!
I highly recommend an afternoon with Chef Jirayu! You will have a delightful time and learn how to make the BEST Thai dishes! Not to be missed!

Don't let Chef Ryan's mild manner and calm demeanor fool you-- he's a ninja with a chef's knife! His experience working at Michelin rated restaurants give him the skills and knowledge to carve up delicious dishes. I was amazed to find out that he makes his own vinegar and polishes his rice for his Maki rolls and you can really taste the difference! Everything tasted fresh with amazing textures!
If you're looking for a place to learn how to make sushi or just have a good time at his space, don's pass up a chance to hang with Chef Ryan!

California Fresh
with Chef Barbara
in South Bay & Peninsula (Foster City)
This was our first cooking class, with Cozymeal & Chef Barbara. We loved it...
Chef Barbara was so much fun to be around.
She was prepared, organized & very knowledgeable. We learned more than a receipt, we learned valuable cooking basics as well.
For instance, we didn’t know that there were so many different ways to cut an onion, we didn’t know how to eyeball a tablespoon of olive oil on the bottom of a pan. This might seem like basic information for most people, but it was new information to us & Chef Barbara didn’t make us feel uncomfortable because I didn’t already know it.
Chef Barbara was very patient while showing us how to prepare all of the ingredients & allowing us to try it alongside her.
Thank your Chef Barbara it was such an enjoyable experience! Dan & Julie

Barbara was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot from the cooking lesson. Plus we were working side by side with her learning tips. She also was able to answer random questions that we had about spices, cooking pans and utensils plus we got a quick lesson on the different types of salts! She is super friendly and we were so comfortable with her.

I really enjoyed my experience with Chef Barbara. We spend a fantastic afternoon cooking, laughing, and talking about food! She is an amazing hostess and such a sweet and lovely person.

It's always great to learn from a person who's so passionate about teaching people how to cook simple and delicious food.

Haute Couple's Cuisine - Date Night
with Chef Andrea
in South Bay & Peninsula (Palo Alto)
I don’t normally leave reviews but we were pretty disappointed by the experience. It seems like we must have had a substitute because the woman leading merely read from a recipe sheet, was severely disorganized, fell way (like 1 hr) behind (even so much that one group had to leave before we even started to actually cook our food at almost 2 hrs into the experience at 8:45), was very controlling even though she had 2 helpers that could have assisted. I think she either was not a trained cook herself or was used to doing this with 8 yo kids. For the price, and more importantly the time you want to spend with your partner, I’d recommend another activity.

TUSCAN TO SHARE - DATE NIGHT
well let me start by saying she was very nice.
we felt she was totally unorganized. it appeared she had never made this meal before. she was reading the recipe.
she had everyone doing different things it was impossible to follow along.
from the start there was issues with missing ingredients not being at the workstation.
we also never got the desert. she had forgotten. she offered us a scoop of ice cream.
I really wanted to make this special for my wife. it was my gift to her for Mother's Day
we have done a couple of cooking classes at other locations. this was by far the most disappointing.

We cooked Ramen in Palo Alto William Sonoma store with Chef Michael. I was a part of Adam's group of 10. The noodles were not edible but the broth and pork were delicious. Due to the rubbery noodles, there was mention of receiving a refund but we have not heard back yet. Thank you.

Paris in Winter - Date Night
with Chef Andrea
in South Bay & Peninsula (Palo Alto)
this class wasnt what we expected… to start off, we had a resident chef, but we thought it would be chef andrea. it’s not too hands on as the resident chef would pick out one person to do a task while the rest of the group watched. we thought we would be in small pairs at our own stations actually making the meal. on top of that, the resident chef forgot one guy was cooking the steaks and didnt give him any directions as to when they should be done. so they were burnt and almost well done. overall, very disappointing experience.

We were paired up with another couple so really only got to cook less than half a meal. Pretty disappointed for something entitled “romantic” and “date night”. Just be upfront about this in the description.
