Very well organised evening with clear directions for a hands on experience to produce an amazing variety of delicious duck meals. Great fun too. Loved the Duck Pate.

Fantastic educational morning

— Joan

This was a most enjoyable class with Wendy starting from the very basic on how to dissect a roasted duck successfully, to moving on to a varied number of recipes from entree to main courses. Group participation was a good way of being taught how to prepare a recipe. Her assistant was instrumental in making sure that the kitchen remained at all times tidy ad there was everything provided for us to ensure that it was a very enjoyable and successful time spent. A good investment.

Absolutely the best cooking course around. Wendy explained everything there is to know about ducks and cooking them. Totally possible to cook all these dishes at home, and we have already done three in the week. Great product and a course well worth doing.

— Judy

Loved how we were taught how to break down a duck and it wasn’t just provided in its pieces.
They also taught us little tips and tricks about HOW to cut the pieces out and different seasonings that would work really well with the different cuts.

— Susan

Highly recommended . Lots of enjoyment . The recipe was easy to follow. Wendy was a superstar explaining the process in simple steps and gave us time to catch up if we were running a tad slow . She was also explaining some simple tricks to assistance for preparing in advance if you are time poor when preparing a dinner party etc . Thank you for a fun night .

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.

My husband and I participated in the french inspired duck on Saturday and we loved it. We were in a class of 10 with each pair making 2 different dishes. We went through basics like roasting and cutting a duck to making confit duck. Then it came to sitting down for lunch and eating our 10 dishes with wine. OMG we ate well. Wendy was very patient and knowledeable and Gail did all our dishes. It was an amazing afternoon. We will be back!

— Peter

It was fun and good experience overall. Also the introduction of the luvaduck’s was very skillful.

— Andrew

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.

— Ash

Absolutely loved the experience. Wendy and Gail were amazing hosts and there was a great selection of recipes for everyone to work on. I bought this for my Duck loving partner and he had a fantastic day!
