Booked the class Make Pillowy Gnocchi From Scratch with Chef Anna in Los Angeles (Woodland Hills)
My cousin and I had the absolute pleasure of cooking gnocchi with Chef Ana and her mother! We felt like we were home with family, we felt safe and honored !! We learned culturally how gnocchi is made in Rome! We had everything we needed. They also provide a nice ambiance with music. 10/10 recommend. We will be back to make lasagna ☺️

Booked the class Sushi Night: Four Signature Rolls with Chef Willow in South Bay Los Angeles (Downtown Core)
We had an amazing time with Chef Willow. We went from all having zero skills to making what felt like perfect sushi from a restaurant. Really impressed by the class and feeling way more confident to try on my own now. Highly recommend taking a class and getting to enjoy your own creation. Chef is very friendly and very knowledgeable. She made sure we were all feeling very comfortable in a new environment.

Booked the class Pasta Making Class with Chef Francesca in Torrance (Northwest Torrance)
My four daughters and I did this class as a girls night out. We learned to make the pasta dough and how to roll and cut it. We made filling and sauce to go with it. It was very hands on and delicious!! Francesca is a wonderful teacher, explaining process and products as we worked. We all enjoyed the class and the meal.

Booked the class Fundamentals of Handmade Pasta with Chef Luana in Los Angeles (Central LA)
We had an amazing time making fettuccine veggie and spaghetti ragu from scratch! My favorite part was folding the dough and running it through the pasta roller. It was such a fun, hands-on experience. I highly recommend this class to anyone who loves Italian food or wants to learn how fresh pasta is made from start to finish!
Joanne R.
Booked the class Italian Steakhouse with Chef Francesca in Torrance (Northwest Torrance)
I brought my partner to celebrate his birthday and found this incredible course where we made pasta (my favorite) and NY steak which is my partner’s favorite. We had such a good time and enjoyed learning and cooking with Francesca. She’s an excellent chef who knows exactly how to prepare a 5 Michelin star meal. Everything was perfect, and the food was hands down one of the best I’ve had…and I consider myself a foodie with a sophisticated palette. Thank you Francesca for helping us make this a memorable experience!
Efrain M.
Booked the class Pizza With Pizzazz with Chef Luana in Los Angeles (Central LA)
Chef Luana’s pizza class was fantastic! The first thing you learn is that great pizza is all about the dough, and Chef Luana does an incredible job explaining every step of the process in a way that’s both detailed and easy to follow. I had no idea how much craftsmanship goes into making the perfect dough until taking this class. Chef Luana is a wonderful teacher and is clearly passionate about what she does. My wife and I loved hearing her stories and learning the “why” behind each step, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. The pizzas we made were absolutely delicious, and we left feeling excited to recreate them at home. We can’t wait to put our new skills to use and are already looking forward to taking more of Chef Luana’s classes. Highly recommended for anyone who loves pizza or simply wants to learn from an exceptional instructor!

My husband and I loved this date night. We took a cooking class in Italy for our honeymoon but class with Luana in her apartment felt even more authentic than that - it was like cooking with Nonna. Everything was delicious and I’m excited to make more gnocchi at home. Will definitely be booking Luana again.

Booked the class Fundamentals of Handmade Pasta with Chef Luana in Los Angeles (Central LA)
This was a birthday surprise for my partner and we had such a good time! Chef Luana was warm, welcoming, and hilarious. She was very detailed and hands-on in teaching us how to make spaghetti and fettuccine, and you can really sense her passion! The sauces she made to go along with the pasta (vegetable and ragu) were both so fresh and delicious. We were so proud of how our pasta came out lol, it was harder than we thought but such a rewarding process. Chef Luana also gave us super yummy brioche for dessert, and a little birthday gift for my partner which was so sweet. Overall, such a fun and special experience, and we had an amazing meal - thank you Chef Luana!

Chef Luana was a very gracious host (she made us cappuccinos and tiramisu!) and taught us everything there is to know about her background and the pasta making process. We made spaghetti, fettuccine, and vegetable sauce (but we got to try ragu as well!). We had such a lovely time and would highly recommend for date nights or a gift to a loved one! She even brought us a birthday banner and sash :)

We had a great night with Chef Luana. We made spaghetti and fettuccine and it was amazing. She showed us how to make the pasta and how she’s cooks it. We will definitely be back to try the gnocchi. Great time!
Amanda G.
Booked the class Succulent Handmade Gnocchi with Chef Luana in Los Angeles (Central LA)
Chef Luana welcomed us as family for an unforgettable cooking class. Her love for cooking and years of experience was shared with us as we made the most delicious gnocchi. We enjoyed a homemade ragu gnocchi and a cheese blend gnocchi - both were so yummy, we couldn’t pick a favorite! We also indulged in bruschetta, and dessert. Chef Luana grew up in a part of Italy not far from where my grandfather grew up, which made the whole experience even more special and we felt right at home! Thank you, Chef Luana, for the most wonderful time and new culinary skills to last a lifetime. Hope to cook with you again soon! - James and Amanda

Booked the class An Italian Date Night with Chef Mert in Los Angeles (Central LA)
I surprised my boyfriend with a cooking class for Valentine's Day gift and he absolutely loved it. Chef Mert was very welcoming, on time, organized and prepared for us to take his class. His directions were very clear both with his location and his cooking steps. It was our first cooking class and we were a little nervous but he gave us so many information about cooking; for example how to cut properly and tips for a meal to taste much better. We absolutely enjoyed the class and my boyfriend loved it! Menu was great and the food we made was delicious and very filling! Definitely go in hungry :) Thank you Chef Mert!!!!

Booked the class Fundamentals of Handmade Pasta with Chef Luana in Los Angeles (Central LA)
Chef Luna gave us an unforgettable experience. I will never look at pasta the same way again. I walked away with a deeper respect for the craft and can’t wait to start making my own at home. The hospitality was top tier, the instruction was clear and welcoming, and every bite tasted incredible. We enjoyed it so much that we’ve already planned our next pasta class. Highly recommend to anyone who loves great food and a truly special culinary experience.

We made pasta from scratch and Chef Luana was incredible!! I cannot recommend her enough, she is so caring and attentive. She pays attention to all the little details and we got to eat the pasta we made at the end... best pasta I've had beside from Italy! She is the sweetest and I will definitely come back!
NICOLE B.
Booked the class Italian Steakhouse with Chef Francesca in Torrance (Northwest Torrance)
My husband and I have been wanting to take a cooking class for awhile. We love steak and Italian food so much so Chef Francesca's Italian steakhouse class piqued our interest. The drive was reasonable to Torrance from South LA. Parking was easy. Her home was so cute and clean and charming! Chef Francesca is such a kind, focused and effective teacher and coach. My husband Jeremy and I got to share the workload evenly. What I loved was how easy and fast the recipes were and how easy it was to time everything out while keeping a clean kitchen. The food was superb and we had amazing leftovers the next day. We had an amazing time and would go back to her or try another class with Cozymeal. I even love how she teaches earlier so that she can be a present mom, just an awesome lady. I feel like I can actually cook everything she presented. Please share with her or post so others know :) Thanks a bunch! Nicole

Chef Luana was great from start to end. I surprised my wife with a fettuccine and spaghetti making class and the experience overall was super great. The class was comprised of 3 couples and it was such an intimate vibe compared to bigger classes. Will be recommending to all my friends and will be coming back soon.
Laurence J.
Booked the class Pasta Making Class with Chef Francesca in Torrance (Northwest Torrance)
What a lovely experience. 10/10!! My girlfriend and I booked this for Valentine's Day - pasta making in the morning. We were a bit hesitant to walk into a stranger's home with other strangers (lol), but Chef Francesca made us feel instantly right at home. Not only is she an incredible chef and clearly experienced, but she has a kind, positive soul and clearly loves what she does. Her home is also sweet. Contemporary and heartfelt touches of Italy. She also had cheese and crackers for us to touch on - real parm from Sardinia. We cooked two dishes altogether and they were YUM; portions were generous too...did not eat the rest of the day. So satisfied. Would absolutely recommend and do this again.

Fettuccini and Spaghetti. So fun and cozy, Chef Luana was very sweet and thoughtful. We had an amazing time!
Faith B.
Booked the class Pasta Making Class with Chef Francesca in Torrance (Northwest Torrance)
Great experience with Chef Francesca. She was a great chef and a lovely host. Such a kind person, and such great food! One note, this class is not as hands on as others I have had in the past. Chef duties are shared, you are not making your own dish from start to finish. Not a bad thing, just important to know if you prefer one type of class over another. Also, the chef chooses your sauces beforehand, so if you’re dead set against any of the sauces, let her know and she can accommodate. Would recommend!
Mina S.
Booked the class Fundamentals of Handmade Pasta with Chef Luana in Los Angeles (Central LA)
We started by making the pasta sauce, then moved on to preparing two types of pasta, spaghetti and fettuccine. Chef Luana guided us every step of the way, making everything easy to follow, and both dishes turned out absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend this class—the chef is genuinely one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and the food was amazing.

We made pasta carbonara, steak, potatoes, and chocolate mousse with Francesca. It was amazing, and we are already looking forward to our next cooking class with her!
Jenna M.
Booked the class Distinctive Tastes of Thailand with Marc V. in Sherman Oaks
Kamilla, our chef was informative, attentive and very personable. She helped us make such easy yet rich flavorful Thai food. I liked that we got the option taste each food one at A time. The cooking class was everything I hoped for and more! We only had 3 tables which gave private feel which was perfect for my boyfriend’s birthday gift. However, one thing is that one of the participants turned out to be a live streamer and he was distracting. Chef and the class was perfect, but may be in the future, you pre-screen participants to see if they plan on bringing a full production. Otherwise, thank you for a wonderful experience!! Thank you, Kamilla!!!

Isabella C.
Booked the class Succulent Handmade Gnocchi with Chef Luana in Los Angeles (Central LA)
This Gnocchi cooking class with Chef Luana was absolutely incredible a truly authentic Italian experience from start to finish. From learning traditional techniques passed down through generations to understanding the heart behind each dish, there is truly nothing like being welcomed into an Italian family kitchen. The ingredients, the stories, and the hands-on process made everything so special. The gnocchi we made was beyond delicious, and the entire experience was thoughtful, intimate, and unforgettable. If you’re looking for a genuine, traditional Italian cooking class that goes far beyond a recipe, this is it. Highly recommend to anyone who loves food, culture, and meaningful experiences.

Booked the class Sophisticated Sushi with Marc V. in Sherman Oaks
We had an amazing sushi cooking experience to celebrate my husband’s birthday. From the very beginning, they responded very quickly to messages and were always available and attentive. The experience was fun, pleasant, and truly special. I was very grateful for the opportunity to learn about the origins of everything and a bit of the history behind sushi, which made it even more meaningful. I would definitely do this again in the future and highly recommend it.

Chef was incredible! It was the definition of a cozy meal. Upon leaving, we felt like we were departing from the warm comfort of a grandmother‘s Italian household. We learned how to make spaghetti and fettuccine. We ate delicious sauces without and had fun conversation. She is an accomplished chef with many wonderful stories to share. What a wonderful evening it was for our family. We highly recommend it.

Booked the class Succulent Handmade Gnocchi with Chef Luana in Los Angeles (Central LA)
My wife has always gone out of her way to demonstrate her love and care for me, including taking me on a trip to Italy last year, my first time in Europe. So, when it bame time to celebrate her 60th birthday, I wanted to make it something that would touch her heart. She loves Italy and she loves cooking shows, so I thought that she might really enjoy some up close and personal time with an expert in preparation of Italian cuisine. I was blessed to find Chef Luana, a restauranteur from Italy with over 50 years of experience and someone who is committed to making time spent in her kitchen is joyous and scrumptious. Chef Luana walked us through the steps to make gnocchi, dressed three different ways, all while also making brushetta for us to nosh on. After the gnocchi Chef Luana brought out a cake that she made specially before our arrival to celebrate my wife's birthday. After three hours of cooking, eating, and listening to the chef's tales of running a restaurant in Italy we left feeling well satisfied. It was an event that helped jumpstart a full day of activites to bring a smile to my wife's face and heart and Chef Luana got the ball rolling. I highly recommend takng any of her classes. I intend to take both her pasta class and her pizza making class in the not-to-distant future.

The entire experience was extremely easy to follow and really fun! Me and my girlfriend both agreed that the food was amazing. We made spaghetti and fettuccine pasta from scratch and ate it with her vegetable tomato sauce and ragu sauce! Her hospitality and experience was a moment to remember. Can’t wait to come back again in the future!
