Parking at the location is not easy, but it's no issue if you plan ahead and don't mind a short walk.

She offered 2 times and because I was so far away did'nt want the 6pm class. She worked with me and finally was able to make the 11 am class. NO DISSAPPOINTMENT.. She was amazing, easy to follow her instructions, she knew what she was doing!! Started with some herb education which made things come together in my head. She had the 4 of us hands on and learn first hand. The food was amazing and I feel I have a friend for life. ( if I need any guidance, have any questions) she is right there. Thank you for an amazing time

Then Cozymeal canceled the class, and now refuses to transfer the payment to another class. They tell me to go to Viator or Chase, but Viator can't do anything and Chase says the refund has to come from Cozymeal -- and I can't even receive a refund through Chase anymore because that card account is closed. So I'm just supposed to lose $280? Rhoda Lopez at Cozymeal was unhelpful and just kept repeating herself. No solutions. No accountability. Just finger-pointing. I've never experienced such a frustrating and shady setup. Avoid this company at all costs -- they do not stand by their own bookings. #CozymealFail #CustomerServiceNightmare #TheyCanceledNotMe #CozymealScam

7/27/25 Zach…read moresurprised me with a ramen cooking class at The Story of Ramen. I lovvvve ramen (and noodles in general) so I was ecstatic for this experience. The Story of Ramen is located in the Mission so parking was a little tricky. We got to the general area 20 minutes before so that we could get a decent parking spot. We did the 4 hour advanced workshop where we learned about how to prepare the broth, marinated eggs, chasiu pork, tare seasoning and how to make the ramen. For that day, there were 5 other pairs. Our teachers Manville and Jeff, guided us through every step of the arduous process of making the perfect bowl of ramen. The workshop started off with a lecture about the history of ramen and the creation of The Story of Ramen. Of all the tasks we did, my favorite was making the ramen itself. After learning in detail how much work goes into making ramen, I appreciate ramen more than I ever did before. This was a great team building activity and something new for us. I highly recommend this and of course you get to eat the bowl of ramen you make at the end of the workshop!

The broth had been previously prepared, as were the numerous ingredients to be added, which were ready for us when we added our noodles.

Thank you, Jeff, for your gracious and generous hospitality and all your hard preparations.
