I highly recommend Chef Pao and his classes! His teaching made sushi-making easy and fun, and he shared his favorite local spots for purchasing sushi-grade fish and supplies. My husband and I had a great time, and we left feeling confident that we could indeed make ourselves sushi at home -- and the food was delicious! Pao's home was warm and inviting, as was the chef himself. We're definitely planning to take Pao's other sushi course later this year! Excellent experience overall.

My granddaughter and I attended Pao’s Sushi class. He is a cheerful, fun and excellent at teaching his skill. We made 3 types of rolls and then had the enjoyment of eating what we made along with a lovely salad he made for us and some Mochi ice cream for desert. I always thought making Sushi was a difficult task but with Paos instruction we were able to make very nice rolls first time. Great class.

The sushi was good and Chef Pao was very nice! I was expecting a longer class where we could learn and participate in making more of the food, the class was really just rolling the already prepared ingredients.

Natalie

What a fun & unique experience with Chef Pao! He invited us into his lovely home & taught us all about sushi & roll making. Loved all 3 of our rolls & enjoyed some delicious appetizers. A great idea for a date night or a fun night with a friend!

Bridget

Chef Pao was a kind and patient teacher and was clearly excited to demonstrate his knowledge on sushi-making. The class was well-organized and ran smoothly (our class of 4 people finished in about 1.5 hrs). The food that we made tasted great! One thing that I realized was that the menu mentioned mochi and we did not receive it, but I was definitely still full from the food we made. Overall I had a great time and would definitely recommend this class anyone interested in sushi!

Jackson

16 Mar 2024

Chef Pao was absolutely fantastic— inviting, kind, fun and certainly knowledgeable! I bought this class for my girlfriend and I to attend as a Valentine’s Day gift and she was not disappointed (being the biggest sushi fanatic ever). I would definitely recommend any of Chef Pao’s services as our experience was fantastic. Thanks for the great time, Chef!

Chelsea

The class was informative, however, for the price I was expecting more. Also we were very surprised by the location of the class, no one in our group was anticipating it being at a house?? The website needs to make it more clear this class is at Chef Pao’s home, and not a facility or restaurant. Again for the price, was expecting more of an experience.

Chef Pao was extremely welcoming and had a good flow to his class. The sushi was better than what I find at nearby shops, and the knowledge I learned I look forward to using in my own home!

Gregory S

02 Jun 2024

Chef Pao callled 90 minutes before our guests arrived to tell us he wasn’t coming. His excuse was that his flight arrived the morning of our event, not the night prior. He didn’t have the courtesy to tell us until the last minute. We needed up ordering takeout. It was a total let down. I will not use cozymeal again and I wouldn’t trust that chef pao will be there for your event.

Jean

05 Jun 2023

We hired Chef Pao for a birthday event in our home. He did not disappoint! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed making sushi for the first time. I would highly recommend Chef Pao and look forward to taking his advanced class!! Thank you, Chef!!

Chef Pao's cooking is exceptional and entertaining. He enjoys teaching about culinary art techniques and cooking methods, so he won't disappoint if you have the chance to see him cook and learn from him. As with the dishes he creates, there is no disappointment. He is passionate and it shows through the flavor he extracts from simple ingredients. All in all, he can always bring a unique twist on classic dishes, and that is probably what I enjoy the most about his cooking style.
