Egg yolk ravioli too challenging and wasteful of many eggs Bolognese sauce was good, papperdelle ok, neither really special though. Would be better as well if each couple had their own station of ingredients rather than sharing these and tools back and forth with another couple

The entire experience was false advertising. First of all, the person leading the class was not Chef Paul or a chef at all. When selecting a class, I based my decision largely on the chef. Second, the lesson was totally rushed. Some parts of the meal were already prepared beforehand. We were so rushed we could not even learn along the way -- or hear the instructor -- how we were preparing the meal. We were told to take the instructions home and read them later. As a result, the "class" was 1.5 hours, not two hours as advertised, with an 8-minute break so the potatoes could cook. I could have stayed at home and read from a cookbook and had the same experience. For $100 per person, it came up short and I would like a refund.

The chef was friendly, polite and knowledgeable. He took us through all the steps carefully, and was very helpful. I enjoyed the session.

It was an OK experience. I did learn a couple things, mostly what not to do. The most important lesson was that humidity and/or temperature significantly affects pate choux preventing it from thickening, resulting in runny, unpuffed pastry. So, our eclairs were a catastrophe. Not sure if we will be back.

Paid for a booking for 5 but called on Fri as one had Covid. Called again this morning as second person was ill. When I checked in chef was quite rude as the person I spoke to hadn’t told them. Also no one spoke to me about refund since first party size reduction was over 48 hours. When you pay almost $100 person you expect certain things. Safety is utmost. Took our mandolin protector to give to another group and told us offhandedly to use a towel. Spent 90% of the time dealing with that same group and got irritated when other groups asked for help. We had no salt and pepper, butter, some other ingredients were missing and again chef got annoyed with us. Unacceptable. Certain chefs may be great in the kitchen but not instructors. This was one of those occasions. Chef did not know recipe and so did not instruct well at all. Class ran over and recipes were not available. This class was disorganized and honestly expected much higher quality for . Will never attend or recommend this to anyone.

No because the class was cancelled and I was not notified AGAIN, so I want a full refund and will never use Cozymeal again. Your communication is terrible and wasted my time

Loved the experience! Chef was so personable and knowledgeable. Very warming atmosphere and recipes cooked and prepared were absolutely delicious. My only con would be the fact that you potentially have to share the space and foods being prepared with another couple/people. We were lucky enough to not have to do that but the other couples did just based on the way the stations were set up. But in all I would definitely return and enjoyed getting to shop afterwards.

Carol

The chef was excellent and the food was very good. But we noted that two of the stations had one attendee. These attendees did not have to share the setups and food among four people, they each got their own. Therefore they had double the amount of food given to everyone else even though they paid the same price for the class. This is not fair. I felt like we we should have received our money back for half the cost of the food.

The chef and the class was great. So often the experience depends on the people you are paired with. We were lucky this time.

Loved the class! Abrar was so engaging and had a lot of suggestions for even the most experienced coach cooks. She was extremely organized and watched over each couple as we made a French meal of scallops with sides and a Pear dessert. A really fun night out. Sur La Table’s test kitchen in Bethesda was large and accommodated the 12 participants. We ended the night with a wonderful meal and packed the leftovers to take home. I will definitely be taking another class.

Great time! It was a simple enough meal to learn that helped us both expand our palette and culinary repetoire. Recommend for all. I would ask in the future exactly what you are going to learn.

My husband and I had such great time. We have been wanting to take a cooking class together and highly recommend it.

Amelia

Really fun and busy class making pad Thai, deep fried lemongrass corn fritters, shrimp curry, and enjoying coconut rice afterwards, in a group of 12. It was nice to review knife skills as well. Great date or special occasion activity

Colleen

My husband and I really enjoyed this class. We both learned some things, and had a great meal at the end. We would definitely recommend this date night class.

Chef was attentive and helpful. Would have liked to taste it (!), but a health emergency ended the class early. Still waiting for the recipes.

Matt

As usual, this was a great experience. I would recommend their cooking classes to learn, eat great food, and have a great experience.

Ernie

Overall very informative. Adult only class would be a nice option.. Chef had amazing experience, very informative and knowledgeable. Should have a 5 min late policy. Late guests distracting. Would have liked a little quicker pace. Overall Very great seat up. Definitely an experience.

Emilie

13 Dec 2023

Overall, the class was really fun! In a way I wish it was a tiny bit more challenging. It felt like we did a few knife cuts, then took a break and then cooked a bit before eating. All in all, I wish it had been a bit more difficult or ""fast"" pace wise. The food we made was really good, except for the pad thai which was disappointing. Also would be super nice to make a dessert!

Paula

13 Dec 2023

The class was easy to follow, and I feel the recipes will be easy to replicate at home. This class should be 3 hrs long, not 2. The dough didn't have enough time to rise and didn't have enough time to bake. My focaccia bread wound up burning because the instructor was moving on with the class and the bread didn't get out of the oven fast enough.
