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.

The teacher demonstrated each of the dishes clearly and helped everyone. It was a friendly atmosphere in the professionally equipped kitchen. The dishes prepared were varied and we shared them at the dining table after preparation. I really enjoyed my morning and feel confident of being able to replicate the dishes at home.

Had a fantastic day. The class was just the right size, well organized and ran really smoothly. Had fun meeting new people we all got on and worked well together. Would highly recommend anyone to attend one of these classes. I will definitely be doing another one.

— Lesley

Fantastic class where you meet friendly people and taste wonderful duck dishes. Well organised, great value, staff wonderful and recipes to take home. Do yourself a favour and sign up.

— Karen

This was possibly one of the best evenings we have had. 3.5 hours of learning everything about how to cook duck the French way and everything else! It seems very daunting but Wendy just made it a breeze. Such a well organised class and we had heaps of fun! So so much food so make sure you have an appetite when you go over. I can’t wait to try the Asian style duck class next. And such absolute value for money!

— Reetu

A great class that I would highly recommend. Wendy & Mark were great facilitators and ensured everyone had a great time. I’m a confident cook and picked up some new tricks.

— Elaura

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.

— Vivienne

We had a great time at the Luv-a-Duck cooking class. We enjoyed the cooking as well as the eating !!

— Harry

This was my first class here and I will definitely consider other classes here and recommend to my friends. Excellent preparation and clear guidance from the warm and friendly teaching lead, I learnt a lot of new and easy French duck dishes. A warm welcome and wonderful experience. Great for food lovers and a good gift idea. Thanks!

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

Very much enjoyed the lesson, the cooking and the eating!! Our instructors were excellent , helping us cheerfully along the way and overall very impressive. Hope to return one day for another lesson.
