Chef Cregg does not just provide education, he creates an experience. Chef Cregg set the tone for every single moment of this cooking class. His creative style will have you at the edge of your cutting board all night long - all while jamming out to an excellent music playlist. Chef Cregg teaches kitchen etiquette, knife handling, craftiness, and even how humor is vitally important in the midst of it all. Regardless of your cooking background, you will definitely enjoy the journey through this class. 10/10!!!

I had the pleasure of booking Chef Cregg for a private Mother's Day French vegan cooking experience with my mom and it was absolutely fantastic! Chef Cregg's cooking space was inviting and equipped with top notch equipment and high quality vegan ingredients. His instructions were superb and he provided excellent support throughout. Chef Cregg's warm and kind personality made the experience even more enjoyable. We had a lot of fun and learned so much. It was a memorable Mother's Day that we will cherish forever. I highly recommend Chef Cregg, even for non vegans. The food was delicious and eye opening, showcasing the possibilities of plant-based eating. The three-hour experience was perfectly curated and the meals were incredibly decadent. We left feeling stuffed and satisfied. Chef Cregg's culinary skills are truly exceptional - the flavors and textures of the dishes were outstanding. You won't be disappointed with his cooking! I highly recommend booking him for a unique and delicious culinary journey.

Chef Cregg was very friendly and informative in his teaching. He made the class fun and taught us new cooking techniques. The only drawback was the other people in the class who treated it as a joke so we ran out of time to learn everything that was on the menu. Next time, we might do a private class to get the full on experience.

I can't say enough great things about Chef Cregg! I booked him for a private lesson with my wife and I for her birthday and we were so happy with the night. Not only was the food delicious, he taught us great skills, introduced us to new methods of cooking and he brought great energy and vibes the whole night! We are already talking about other dates to work with him again, maybe even with more people because he's a gem that more people need to meet. Highly, highly recommend! And for context, we had the French Vegan Dinner, which was INCREDIBLE. My wife and I are both vegan and he made sure that we were well taken care of. We also had plenty of leftovers which we really appreciate as meal preppers ourselves.

Our experience with Chef Cregg was great! He arrived with a cart of all of his equipment and ingredients, set up in our kitchen, and then proceeded to give us a crash course in making a multi-course dinner from scratch. He really made it a point to teach us and took the time to answer all of our questions, rather than just whip through the steps. Highly recommend.

Chef Cregg taught us basic knife skills, kitchen safety tips, & walked us through every dish. Prep & cooking took 2 hours, chef brought everything needed, pots pans, ingredients, etc. Clean up was another hour. Chef Cregg is an amazing instructor, very down to earth, & the sweetest! He made this an experience we won’t soon forget. It felt like we were just cooking with a friend.

Such an amazing experience! Chef Cregg was kind and knowledgeable, brought all the ingredients including special substitutions for my dietary restrictions. It was not only a fabulous meal but we learned how to make a number of dishes. While we ate he did the clean up and then dished the dessert. Why hadn’t I found Cozymeal sooner? Such a fun experience and I highly recommend Chef Cregg!

Chef Cregg provided me and my girlfriend with an amazing experience for our anniversary dinner. An evacuation notice was place on the building for a few minutes and our dinner was interrupted for a moment. Chef Cregg remained professional and was very flexible. We enjoyed his menu and his lesson was very detailed and informative. He was well equipped and all we had to provide him was access to our small kitchen! We enjoyed our meal and he even helped us clean up. We are still enjoying our left overs, lol. We will definitely keep in touch for future events. He even got along with our dog! Can't wait to do this again :)

I attended Chef Cregg's class as a part of a work team building event. Chef Cregg was great. He did a good job of engaging each member of our team to make sure everyone felt included. The meal was delicious and inclusive of all taste buds and food preferences. He even made a separate salad for one of my team members who doesn't eat cucumbers. Awesome job Chef Cregg!

Our team of 11 participated in the pasta challenge with Chef Cregg. His welcome was so warm and the charcuterie board was spectacular. Chef Cregg provided the best instructions without overwhelming the team. Our team was excited and energized as we prepped and cooked each course. What an endeavor and the results were memorable.

We selected the Thai From Scratch cooking lesson to celebrate my mom's birthday and it was the best gift. Chef Cregg kept our whole family engaged -- teaching better knife skills to our most advance cooks and answering all our random questions about food prep along the way. We all learned something and enjoyed the hands on time together. What a special experience. We will definitely do this again!

Thank you Chef Cregg for a wonderful team building cooking class. We were early to the class as parking was surprisingly easy, but Chef was ready for us. The class was exciting, very informative and incredibly delicious. All 11 of us got plenty of hands on cooking time, tons of tips, knife safety skills and Chef Cregg worked hard at increasing our perception of various ingredients (fresh herbs, dried mushrooms etc). The meal at the end was exquisite. We were very satisfied! 5 stars, would take the class again!

Chef Cregg is the real deal. He has a strong background as a chef and he’s a great teacher. It’s rare to find both! His space has a cool warehouse conversion-type vibe. The equipment we used was pretty basic, which makes it more likely that we’ll be able to replicate the techniques at home. With that said, this was a busy lesson with lessons learned around every corner. Definitely need to bring some energy to get the most out of it.

We joined Chef Cregg for an advanced class although we are beginners. Chef adapted and took the time to first re-explained a bunch of basics such as knives holding and slicing (vegetables, meat, etc). Everything was setup in advance (materials, ingredients) so we can focus on the prep and cooking and we had 1 station each with plenty of space. Chef would show us the expectations, teaches us techniques (ex: how to use the different robots and tools) and I loved that he let us do everything. My BF and I really enjoyed the experience, the food turned out great and we had leftovers :P Highly recommend Chef Cregg and his Southern France menu!

Lovely experience at Chef Cregg's unique and artsy space in Oakland. As others have said, his lessons are packed with practical and actionable tidbits and he's an experienced teacher, sharing his knowledge and expertise in a way that anyone, from the novice to the experienced, can learn something new to take home. You can sense his creative side in every part of his studio space, full of interesting details, every tool ever needed, and funky music to make the evening special. At first glance, the menu might seem simple, but don't be fooled: this is truly a special dinner, with delicious flavors, surprise ingredients (luxurious ones, too), and using all kinds of expert techniques. It's a meal you are going to want to replicate for someone special in your life. We were a bit slow on the cooking, so we only got eating by the time our session should have been done. The result is that we gobbled everything up super quickly (wish we had had a bit more time to relax, but we also had a babysitter waiting). So while you should bring an appetite, I'd suggest eating a light snack before coming so that you aren't like us, trying to eat everything as we were making it. We enjoyed our time at Chef Cregg's and highly recommend this experience!

My wife and I had such an incredible time with Cregg. We learned a huge amount and he was able to cater the lessons to our level of experience. It was all hands-on from start to finish with a rich amount of information, and pro tips. The class went more than an hour over time and we never felt rushed. The food was incredible, and we got to take home a TON of delicious leftovers. This was really a phenomenal experience.
