Had an awesome experience with Chef Taylor last night! She was great with our kids and let them help prepare the meal, talk about the ingredients they like and don't like - and then ate 2 helpings of EVERYTHING! Definitely will be doing another event with Chef Taylor - probably the Thai feast - thank you Chef!

Couldn’t have had a better experience. The atmosphere was laid back and comfortable and Taylor is so personable. We were worried it would be awkward with it being our first cooking class, but we ended up having nothing short of a blast. The recipes were not only amazing and beyond tasty, but Taylor was great at teaching them.

The Thai cooking class at Taylors was a wonderful experience. She is very friendly in her approach and thorough with the lesson. Her home is very inviting and welcoming as it's nestled among a nice area of Downtown Dallas. Taylor also advised on many other morsels of culinary knowledge so this was a nice bonus. Will definitely recommend Cozymeal and Taylor to friends and family.

Chef Taylor is well known among our group of friends for being not only a great chef, but a fantastic teacher! She has a reputation for being creative in the kitchen and fun in her teaching methods! She is helpful whether you want a traditional pot roast or your kids are vegan and you want fresh ideas to add to their fav list. Love her culinary expertise and willingness to enthusiastically share her knowledge!

I've been to two of Chef Taylor's classes, a vegetarian themed one and a dessert class. Both classes were informational, fun and full of delicious food. She allowed everyone to be as hands on as they wanted, made sure to keep the class informed on what she was doing and why. Every question was answered to the fullest satisfaction of the person asking. I enjoyed the food immensely. Dishes I normally don't like, such as creme brulee and eggplant were absolutely amazing.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND Chef Taylor! I had the pleasure of meeting Taylor the early part of this year at a cooking class. Taylor is amazing and has the entire group feeling at ease, having fun and learning how to cook. She is very warm, friendly, funny, patient and phenomenal chef. After my first class with Taylor made it a point to attend her cooking class each month. And this past month I have started hosting a cooking class in my home with Chef Taylor and my friends. My friends are having so much fun and enjoying the classes as well. My friends are loving this creative, fun and great tasting way to be with friends. They are wanting her to come to their homes as well. Chef Taylor gives us the recipes so that we can recreate them at home. Our families have grown to love these classes because they reap the benefits! 5 STARS ALL THE WAY ACROSS!

Cooking with Taylor was a wonderful experience! She broke things down such easy to follow steps I felt confident I could take the things I learned home and replicate it easily! After watching her cook I no longer am so intimidated in the kitchen because she makes cooking such a fun, welcoming environment! Everyone needs Chef Taylor in their life!
