Chef Parsati was amazing! We went to cook with her on Valentine’s Day and she made the experience memorable. Her endearing way of describing the recipes and patience with us throughout the cooking process made the experience inclusive. We will certainly visit her again!

Tony F.

Sarah D.

Chef Maggie was AMAZING! We had such a fantastic time with her at our home. The food was incredible, and we learned so much—from chopping techniques to vegan cooking tips and even creative ways to use leftovers. Speaking of which, we have so many leftovers and can’t wait to enjoy them tomorrow when we’re not as full! Maggie came fully prepared with everything needed for the class, making the experience seamless. She was organized, engaging, and an absolute joy to chat with. We had so much fun learning from her, and I can’t wait to book with her again! Thank you, Maggie!

Mom .

This was a personalized class in the chef's kitchen. She gave us lots of good tips, the soups were all delicious and we had a very nice time. I would definitely take more classes from her.

Claire W.

02/04/2025

We had such a fun time at Chef Eddie’s dumpling class! My husband and I made dumplings from scratch for the first time, and Eddie was super encouraging, upbeat, and helpful the whole way through. The dumplings turned out delicious, and he even topped off the meal with his homemade braised pork belly and dessert—such a nice touch! The whole experience felt really homey and relaxed, with a small, intimate group that made it even better. Would definitely recommend for a date night, friend hangout, or even a team bonding activity. Can’t recommend this class enough!!!

Arowyn C.

02/01/2025

Chef Parsati made this the warmest, most meaningful and informative event I’ve ever experienced. My partner and I went for our anniversary and it made for such a sweet experience. The recipes are now going to be fully incorporated (and I loved where she gave us suggestions to tailor them to what we already make/eat) and were incredibly tasty! I appreciated the whole group and process.

Allison A.

01/27/2025

This was fun, informative, and delicious! Maggie made a custom menu for us and was extremely positive and accommodating. She was extremely professional and prepared, and she was totally unfazed by our rather small kitchen. Highly recommend!

katie b.

01/26/2025

We had a wonderful time with Chef Parsati at her home. She taught us healthy tips for cooking fish and making spice rubs and the food was delicious. I had a wonderful time with my father and had bought the class as a Christmas present for him. Thank you Chef Parsati and I highly recommend taking a class from her!

Kate C.

01/23/2025

This is a very fun, engaging and informative class! Chef Parsati has an impressive knowledge of cuisines and techniques and shares these in a practical way that the average home cook can use. She gave us a lot of useable information and went above and beyond to host a clean, yummy and fun experience. I will absolutely be taking other classes with her!

Ted P.

01/21/2025

We signed up for this class for my daughter's birthday party and Chef Parsati handled the group of 10 girls with expertise. Everyone enjoyed it. Thanks again!

Shawn A.

01/20/2025

Such a fun night! Chef Eddie was an amazing teacher, giving detailed instructions plus individual feedback and recommendations to everyone who attended. He also taught us a ton about soy sauces and how to mix different ingredients together to make the perfect dumpling dipping sauce. And of course all the food was exceptionally delicious. We've already discussed looking for more Chef Eddie classes to attend in the future!

Jason B.

Chef Daniel's hands-on pizza-making class taught us the precise techniques for creating exceptional pizza, from properly kneading the dough to balancing fresh toppings, and his clear instructions and engaging teaching style made the experience both educational and fun.

Laial A.

I got fantastic feedback from our team! Everyone had a great time. Thank you to Chef Dirk for a fantastic experience.

Cameron L.

01/16/2025

Daniel hosted a fantastic class. The salad was inspired, hand-making the pasta was incredibly rewarding, and everything tasted fantastic. His loft is perfect for this type of event, and it was a treat to get to know Daniel over the course of the evening. I'd absolutely book with him again. Highly recommend!

Shikha A.

01/12/2025

My husband and I had a wonderful experience learning the art of NY style pizza making. Chef Daniel was a pleasure to work with and to learn from. We appreciated the small class size so we were able to ask plenty of questions. We look forward to doing more classes with Chef Daniel.

AV V.

01/10/2025

We have a wonderful time, learned so much about the food, the culture, and the technique, and enjoyed a delicious meal we were proud to have made. Chef Daniel is amazing and I hope to take more classes with him in the future.

Nadav J.

01/04/2025

We had a wonderful meal with chef Parsati! Her home was very welcoming and she was super knowledgeable about the meal as welll as all of the health benefits! Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a tasty meal + a learning experience!

Lee Ann Payne .

12/30/2024

Great class! It was slightly unorganized at the start, but I believe it was because it was the last class right before a major holiday. I learned more in this class than in the other cooking classes in general. Well done!

Lee I.

12/28/2024

Non vegans can learn a great deal from Chef Parsati. My niece and I want to cook healthier dishes and this class is what we needed. Chef explains the vegan ingredients as recipes are assembled and followed up with sending an ingredient list after the class. Come learn and enjoy!

Christopher C.

12/23/2024

Class was Great. Food was good

Sanjeev M.

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!

Angel R.

12/19/2024

WOW!!!! Where do I even begin… First, the class took place in the chefs private home which was incredibly warm and welcoming. The space was very clean and tidy, and chef was so welcoming and professional! The class itself began with a quick snack, compliments of the chef, which was tasty and set the tone for the rest of the time there! From there, we got right into the chopping and cooking, and I literally found myself jumping in place from the excitement of mixing and cooking. She was very clear and concise in her explanations, and very welcoming in our own style of cooking however that presented.. In her words, since I kept saying sorry for my terrible chopping skills, “There is no sorry in this class. You cook and have fun.. That’s all that matters.” I never for a moment felt rushed, or as if I was doing anything wrong. All questions were welcomed and answered, and of course, the food tasted absolutely amazing!! My partner and I were so pleased and so grateful for this wonderful experience, and will be returning for more classes! Thank you, Chef!!!

Gene C.

Chef Polly was great! She took us through the ingredients, the preparation, and even the cultural significance of various dishes. There were techniques and ingredients that we will definitely be incorporating into our future meal prep.

Kinto D.

12/14/2024

Chef Parsati was very welcoming and created a fun and tasty class! She was very accommodating and flexible and has a huge wealth of knowledge about food and cooking to share. Can't wait to try another one of her classes sometime

Jade C.

12/08/2024

Chef Polly was amazing! She made cooking plant based Korean food feel very approachable and was very knowledgeable about the ingredients we used. The food was delicious - we’re already planning to make most of the dishes we cooked for a dinner party. In addition to teaching us helpful tips in the kitchen, Chef Polly was very personable.

Monica W.

11/29/2024

Me and my partner thoroughly enjoyed Chef Parsati's class. She was very knowledgeable and passionate about cooking, cultures and traveling and we spent a good amount of time getting to know each other. Her home was very warm and welcoming and we felt like we truly made a home-made meal because the chef made it seem so easy and healthy. Additionally, she offered tips on how to substitute some aspects of the meal as well as what cookware to use. Overall a lovely experience and would highly recommend to anyone!

Sam B.

11/23/2024

From Henry, the 11yo birthday chef of honor: "Awesome food, great chef, learned a bunch of new skills and had a great time!". Chef Parsati was a great host and teacher. This was the perfect learning and dining experience for my son's birthday. Thanks for having vegan hands on cooking options! -Sam

Taylor O.

11/18/2024

Chef Edmund is incredible! It was such a fun class and we felt like we left feeling like we could really walk away with the skills of doing this at home. He was so fun as well and made for a great date night...and the food at the end was incredible! Thank you!

Nishchay S.

11/16/2024

Maggie was such a fantastic teacher and made amazingly flavorful food for us! I don't usually expect delicious Vegan European food, but this surpassed all my expectations. My favorite dish of the night was the ratatouille with each flavor note standing out beautifully and paired perfectly with a simple baked potato topped with hollandaise sauce. Yum! The best part was that all the dishes being so simple and healthy, are easily replicable any other time at home. We definitely learned a lot and cannot recommend her enough! Truly a wonderful birthday surprise!

Aaron D.

11/10/2024

Chef Parsati was an awesome teacher! She welcomed us to the class like we friends getting together to cook in the meal. All of the food was delicious and the way were taught the recipes allowed us to easily scale to different portion sizes as required. Would recommend any of her classes

Elise B.

We loved Chef Maggie’s vegan French cooking class. Despite having taken other cooking classes in the past, we learned new knife skills techniques and facts related to the meal from Maggie. She’s a delight to be around and we had fun cooking with her. We particularly appreciated how she set us up for success: focusing our efforts on chopping and tasting for balance, while explaining her cooking technique along the way. The meal was absolutely delicious. We are excited to make it again with her instruction in mind.

Jillian S.

11/08/2024

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time with Chef Polly! Delicious food and really fun to make! Definitely going to try making this here at home!

Carol C.

11/04/2024

We had a great time learning to cook with Chef Polly. She was welcoming and fun while also providing detail instructions and helpful tips. I signed up for the class hoping to learn how to do the pleats for steamed buns and Chef Polly helped me achieve that!

Ronalie L.

Chef Andrea was an excellent instructor. I especially appreciated that after she would display how to pleat the siu mai and har gow skin, she came around each table to give assistance to those who needed help. Also, qwhen the har gow flour didn't work out, she was prepared for plan B. Her helpers also helped make the class run smooth. The class was fun!!!

Bruce P.

My friends and I had an amazing evening. Chef Maggie did an excellent job curating a unique dining experience. It was a great balance between learning, cooking, and socializing. She came prepared and quickly responded to questions leading up to the dinner. I would highly recommend Chef Maggie. She's awesome!

Kit A.

10/27/2024

Thank you so much, Chef Parsati! This was a phenomenal birthday present! We learned to make INCREDIBLE, accessible, delicious vegan food that we will absolutely be making again in our own home. Chef Parsati is brilliant and was fantastic at explaining what and why she was doing. She allowed the class to be hands on and was kind enough to answer all of our questions about techniques and Indian cooking in general. She was incredibly mindful and attentive to ingredients used especially given our food restrictions. Her home was beautiful and absolutely spotless, and she made us feel so welcomed in her space. We are looking forward to booking another cooking class with her in the future!

Kinsley L.

10/26/2024

I’ve never used CozyMeal before but I am so thankful I found Chef Parsati on CozyMeal. She is an extremely accommodating and knowledgeable chef. Even though Chef Parsati was busy on the day of my booking, she made sure to fit my girlfriend and I in for our class! We were also running late, and she made us feel so welcomed and comfortable at her place. The meals my girlfriend and I learned to cook were delicious and healthy. I would definitely take another class from Chef Parsati and recommend her to my friends and family.

Highly recommend!

Vania W.

10/17/2024

Chef Parsati was an amazing teacher. She is so knowledgeable and tailored the information to our cooking experience. She made Indian cooking and the usage of many spices feel approachable and replicable at home. The food was so delicious and we had so much fun.
