the class was a wonderful experience..great fun working in a commercial kitchen with a group of cooks. The recipes are ‘simple when you know how’ and I’ve practised them all since the class. I’d love to come back for the Christmas cook

— Karen

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.

The French Inspired Duck class was very informative. The hands on cooking really helps you learn the techniques. There was some much food available to sample that I could try everything on offer.

— Pamela

Incredible class, very well run with a range of dishes which were all amazing to taste. Particularly the confit duck. Would recommend to anyone considering learning how to cook with duck

Absolutely loved this class – Wendy our teacher was very patient and very knowledgeable in all things duck. I definitely recommend doing one – and I can’t wait to do another one!!

— Livia

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

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

Really enjoyed the lesson. I finally feel that I can cook duck breast perfectly (and impress my friends). The recipes we made were straightforward, and the finished dishes were so delicious and impressive. I will definitely be making them again. Thank you for the great recipes and duck cooking tips!

— Nick

Enjoyable small group class where you learn delicious duck recipes that don’t seem daunting to cook at home! Wendy the teacher was excellent.

— Nat

Great class for amateurs and professionals alike! Wendy is passionate and very knowledgeable and Mark was super helpful around the kitchen. Thoroughly enjoyed the session and meal after!

— Frances

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.

— Lorraine

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!

— Cameron

wonderful, instructive, delicious. Great value for money, plus all the other guests/participants were very nice company, too.
definitely worth a return visit.

— James

The virtual cooking class was a pleasant experience which you can do at the comfort of your own kitchen, recipes were easy to follow, and the dishes turn out very professional presented and flavours are amazing. Wendy is very good at explaining each recipe and how we can nail it, I enjoyed it very much. Will definitely try other cooking class too when it become available.
