Wendy was a great teacher. Professional kind and completely understanding when we explained we were beginners. Thanks for a day well spent!

— Stephanie

A fun and interesting night out with family. Thank you to the amazing staff who were an absolute delight to have teaching us. Wendy is a credit to your business!
Would highly recommend to anyone for any occasion – cooking is not my forte, but your teaching quality was calm, encouraging and 10/10.

Thanks for a lovely evening x

— Sarah

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

What fun. The team were very organised, Wendy and exceptional teacher and Mark all over the support role. Delicious recipes provided to take away. Hands on class with a chance to taste the wide range of dishes made by the students.
Highly recommended

Wendy gave us an excellent introduction to jointing and carving duck before we split into twos to work on 2 recipes per pair. The morning split into two – a late morning break to try the parfait and soup entrees, and lunch after we’d finished cooking all the other recipes. None of them were overly complicated and it was great to try everything at lunch. There was an opportunity, of course, to buy duck produce at the end of the class. Recommendation – if you go, don’t have a heavy breakfast. You need room for all that duck!

— Annie

An amazing hands on experience! Dishes we prepared were easy to make and scrumptious to eat! Wine accompanied with the meal was of good quality. Thank you to our host who walked us through the evening. A fantastic memorable experience! Will be back!

— Yvette

What a fabulous day. Such a professional experience, but such fun, especially if you attend in a pair with a best buddy. Wendy’s tips and demonstrations leave nothing to the imagination or chance and Rhonda is the most amazing fairy godmother in the kitchen. Our cooking group was wonderful and the feast at the end was absolutely delicious. No shopping, no dishes, just the fun part in between. Many thanks Wendy and Rhonda. Warm wishes, Sharon and Virginia

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 .

Loved the course, Wendy was extremely patient and friendly.
Came for the food, stayed for the ambience!

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.
