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!

Our instructor was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. We made some delicious food and learnt many different ways to prepare duck. Will be looking at going back for a different themed duck class in the future.

— Lauren

This was a fun class, with lots of knowledge and skills learned along the way. We sampled many dishes and they were all delicious. It’s so much easier to cook duck than I thought!

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.

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

The team at Luv a Duck were professional and fun. I learnt lots, ate a heap of great food and feel more confident to cook a food at home that I would normally have left to the experts.

— Melanie

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!
