What a fun, well organised and informative few hours this turned out to be. So much is covered in such a short time in an authoritative yet extremely friendly manner. Everything is set up before arrival to ensure available time is optimised and timings of dishes work out well to allow a break for Entree and then a return to sample a table of everyone’s food at the end. Highly recommend this for ‘foodies’, duck aficionado’s or anyone who wishes to learn something new.

What a great night of cooking duck with a French influence.

Wendy and Gail were great teachers and hosts who made us all feel very comfortable and confident with the cooking instructions

We all sat around the table eating our meals while discussing the menu of all the delicious meals .

We will definitely return for another cooking session

What a fun class. Our instructor, Wendy, gives very clear instructions on each aspect of cooking with duck, from dissecting the raw duck to the method of cooking each fabulous French dish. Amazing the many different flavours that I now know I can add to my list. Wendy never misses a beat.

— Margaret

Do it…. Seriously, take the class. Wendy was a great teacher, I was left without a partner and that didn’t matter in the slightest. The food tasted incredible and the recipes are so simple… do yourself a big favour and take the class!

— Matthew

My 3rd visit, another fantastic class. Everytime I go even though we always cover the basics first, I always learn more about how to prepare a duck. Wendy has enviable knife and cooking skills.

My friend and I engaged in this 3.5 hr hands on course recently.

It was conducted by Wendy,and ably assisted by Adam.

This is my 2nd LuvaDuck course,and it was superb

The demystifying of duck is impeccably presented,and the standard and quality of the training process merits accolades.
I have high praise for the conduct of this course,and certainly have recommended it to my friends and colleagues

This class was fantastic, Wendy was a wonderful teacher and I feel far more confident cooking with duck but also being in the kitchen and cooking in general.

A great mix of people, all of them “Foodies”. 3 guys and the rest women a total of eight, we then split into 4 teams to cook 2 dishes each. Outcome was YUM, YUM, YUM!!! Would definitely recommend this as a great gift or experience. Very well run & organized, thanks to Wendy (LE chef) & Rhonda.
Definitely a Five Star Experience.
