Chef Valentino was incredible! Can’t say enough good things. Made cooking easy, fun, and a memorable experience for all of us!!! Not to mention the food was to die for! Will absolutely be coming again!

Chef was very personable and very knowledgeable. We were unable to cook all the items presented on the menu at the time of booking. Pancakes were prepared last minute by the chef. 4 guests were still preparing food while the other guests were already seated. I feel the event was understaffed and could have been better organized. Perhaps consider adding staff and using ‘stations’, ie) each station assigned an item to prepare. Food was cold by the time it was served. I love this concept and my daughter and I enjoyed ourselves.

We did a team building event at Cozy Meal and we made ravioli, tiramisu, mozzarella balls, lemon chicken sauce, fettuccine all from scratch! Chef was extremely attentive and he explained tips and tricks of cooking. He also showed us a lot of ingredients that we typically don't use in our home kitchens (like cow enzymes!). The Chef took good care of multiple colleagues with food allergies as well. Everyone pitched in to making the dinner, and it was a lot of fun rolling the dough, shaping the mozzarella, whipping our own cream, designing our own tiramisu and wrapping our own raviolis. In the end, the meal was restaurant-level delicious, the food was ample amount to feed our group of ~15 people. We had a good time all around, and left with our bellies content and team stronger. Thanks Chef! Highly recommend.

We had our experience with Chef Valentino and his partner. This was such a fun experience. Chef was filled with jokes and energy. It made our experience great! This was my boyfriend’s and my first time. I’m excited to try to cook this on my own. Thank you so much Chef Val for a fun interactive time.
