Where do we even start! Chef Janet made our date night perfect. The food was amazing, the conversation was great and the tips and tricks are some that we will hold onto forever. The icing on the cake is that our kitchen is even cleaner than when she arrived! Highly recommend Chef Janet and any class she is doing. 10/10 experience. We are already planning our next event with her.

Chef Janet was fantastic! My partner and I had so much fun learning how to make bruschetta, pasta, and tiramisu on her birthday. Chef Janet brought all the materials needed and even cleaned up after, so it made for a fun and easy night for us.

My sister and I had such a wonderful time in Janet’s cooking class! She was warm, knowledgeable, and made the experience both fun and approachable. We learned how to make a delicious bruschetta with olive tapenade, a perfectly cooked chicken marsala, and a silky panna cotta that was the perfect finish. Janet’s guidance made even the more intimidating steps feel easy, and we walked away with new skills—and full stomachs! Highly recommend her class to anyone looking for a hands-on and memorable culinary experience.

Janet was fantastic! We had such a fun time learning the art of pasta/ravioli making with her. She comes well prepared with everything (including pots/pans you name it) and her culinary knowledge is exceptional. HIGHLY recommend using Chef Janet you will not regret it.

Chef Janet came out to our house for the evening and showed my partner and I how to make Sushi Rolls. She came with everything necessary for the event, the only thing we provided was a table to work at, an outlet for a rice cooker, and an eager spirit to learn. She was an excellent, patient teacher. We would definitely book her again in the future.

Janet was excellent, the food was delicious and experience of cooking it really fun. We wanted to be hands on and she had plenty for us to do, and the end results was fantastic and we have plenty of leftovers. We would definitely want her to come again, just what we were looking for.

Thomas

11 Dec 2024

Chef Janet was awesome! All of the food was so good, better than I've had in restaurants (Dim Sum). Janet was incredibly nice, instructive and great conversation. I would not have expected I'd be a semi-pro potsticker folder in such a short period of time, cooking is not my strong suit! I got this experience for my partner as a gift and she was so stoked. We would definitely do another cooking experience with Janet!

Justin

Chef Janet delivered a fantastic private dim sum cooking class! Her clear instructions and hands-on teaching style made the experience both educational and fun. She expertly explained each technique while keeping the atmosphere light with great conversation. The dim sum we prepared was delicious, and we learned how to recreate everything at home. Chef Janet maintained perfect cleanliness throughout and left the kitchen spotless. Her professionalism, combined with her warm personality, made for an outstanding cooking experience. Pros: - Expert instruction - Delicious results - Great conversation - Spotless cleanup - Fun atmosphere Highly recommend for anyone interested in learning dim sum cooking!

Chef Janet was awesome! I booked her for a sushi class as a birthday surprise for my wife and she loved it. It was a very nice experience! She walks you through all the steps but also lets you use your creativity by creating your own rolls. Besides all that, she is such nice company! Would definitely recommend!

Greg

15 Sep 2024

Chef Janet taught us how to prepare a Dim Sum meal for 6 in our home. We learned by doing, as we rolled up sleeves to chop, mix, peel, roll, steam, fry, boil, etc etc. The best part was we now know how to make the perfect potsticker! She brought all needed cooking supplies and ingredients, was well organized, and cheerfully led us through the process. Great way to celebrate a birthday!

Nancy

12 Aug 2024

Chef Janet was tremendous. She is an excellent chef and teacher with an easy-going style, making it fun and enjoyable. The beef and squash ravioli were wonderful, and I plan to try and make it again. I never knew that cannolis were so easy to make. (Hopefully, I can channel Chef Janet's technique!) I highly recommend Chef Janet for the rewarding and delicious experience of having a chef cook and instruct in your home!

Chef Janet ran a wonderful class for us, readily modifying recipes based on allergies and preferences. She was friendly and professional throughout. It was a fantastic experience and very smoothly run from start to finish. We were so pleased with the whole event, and the food was absolutely delicious.

Chef Janet was AWESOME! Booked her Dim Sum class for my 2 year anniversary. She comes with everything you could need (you need to supply nothing but a stove and microwave!) and then takes home all of the dirty pots and pans - no clean up was a lovely surprise. She is funny and great to talk to. Oh and most importantly, the food was delicious!

I booked Chef Janet's Dim Sum class as a surprise gift for my husband's birthday, and we had an absolutely amazing time! We learned a bunch of great recipes and cooking tips, and her stories of living in Taiwan and Hong Kong made the class even better.

Elliott

19 Jun 2023

Janet was absolutely fantastic. I wanted to surprise m girlfriend for her 28th birthday with a private cooking experience. This was my first time on Cozymeal, and Janet was the first chef I have done this with. Janet was everything we could've asked for plus more. Her communication upfront was timely and effective. She was very flexible to allow for the dietary restrictions, and allowed my girlfriend and I to customize the dishes of our choice. She was a very good teacher, but also let us do things on our own. She was helpful to "show us the way". We had good conversations and she was entertaining. She did all of the dishes and was very helpful with cleanup. The sushi was awesome and she gave us many tis and tricks. I would certainly recommend Janet!!!

Cooking with Janet was fun and informative. She was really organized, so that I could relax and enjoy the experience. The food was delicious and I'm excited to be able to make this again on my own.

Regina

01 Jun 2023

Pot stickers are way too delicious and complicated for me to ever make, right? Wrong. Janet stepped us patiently through the process of blending ground meats, chopping vegetables and mixing in seasoning. Just doing that much took the mystery out of pot stickers, but Janet even taught us how to make the dough covering part. She had also provided store-bought frozen shells, but I soon found that the dough I had was heartier. When we tasted our finished creations, I was shocked by how well we had done. Janet provided an excellent recipe and made learning it fun. She helped us feel successful. I had a great time.
