WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE COOKING CLASSES IN NYC

Ashley G.

Booked the class The Best of Italian Favorites with Chef Kenneth

Chef Kenneth was amazing! I booked this class to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday and we had a blast. We loved everything on the menu - particularly the gnocchi. He also left us with leftovers which were greatly appreciated. Cannot recommend Chef Kenneth enough :)

Kaleigh N.

Booked the class A Taste of Classic Japan with Chef Kenneth in Manhattan (Lower East Side)

We had such a fun experience with Chef Kenny through Cozy Meals! He taught us knife skills, how to roll sushi, and how to plan a dinner menu and cooking order. It was super interactive and we actually feel confident recreating the recipes at home. Highly recommend!

Elisa S.

Booked the class Savoring Best of Spain with Chef Jimi in Brooklyn (Windsor Terrace)

It was an amazing night learning how to cook potatoes bravas, paella & churros. Chef Jimi was so easy to work with & I learned so much! Thank you

Or Z.

Booked the class Fresh Italian Gnocchi From Scratch with Chef Jamie VK in Brooklyn (Park Slope)

This cooking class was an amazing experience! The instruction was very professional and clear, and we learned so many new tips and techniques. The order of preparation was perfectly planned, so everything flowed smoothly. The chef was not only highly skilled but also fun, warm, and engaging, which made the whole experience even better! Highly recommend this class- prefect as a gift, date night, or a special experience!

Tina L.

Booked the class Upscale Flavors of China with Chef Kenneth in Brooklyn (Cobble Hill)

We cooked steam fish and lots of other delicious food! My favorite part was chef Kenny taught us a lot tips and tricks on how to the knife better and more efficiently. He definitely improved our knife skills. It was a anniversary present and we had a great time!

Joe Januszkiewicz .

Booked the class Upscale Flavors of China with Chef Kenneth in Brooklyn (Cobble Hill)

Chef Kenny was fantastic. Every dish was simple yet delicious. I particularly loved the pot stickers and the dessert: coconut cream with tapioca and diced melon. I learned a ton of little cooking tips and tricks that I'll begin to incorporate into my own cooking. I never knew there were right- and left-handed knives, but now I do! He also had a great sense of humor. It was a pleasure cooking with him and I would love to work with him again.

Neda S.

Booked the class Feast Like A Greek with Chef Ivan in Manhattan (Greenwich Village)

We had such a wonderful experience! The resident chef split the time wonderfully between explaining the flavor pairings, noting preparation timing tips and showing / teaching us proper techniques in the kitchen. The meal was delicious and the kitchen / dining area were beautiful. Would highly recommend!

Carlos C.
