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.

What an outstanding way to spend a few hours. Wendy and Mark were fantastic hosts. I will certainly be coming back again and again. I’ve just sorted my next few Christmas and Birthday gifts.
Oh and the food at the end 5 star

— Dee

Great class. Knowledgeable teacher and delicious recipes.

— Wai

This was a fun and educational class. From the coffee on arrival to the buffet at the end, it is non-stop learning. I don’t know what other classes are like, but learning how to section a duck and cooking in a commercial kitchen were my highlights.

— Simon

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

A really wonderful night! Wendy is a fabulous teacher. It was fun learning about all the different ways to cook duck. Definitely come hungry because you eat A LOT!

— Jaeger

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

Great night and excellent way to understand the many ways to prepare and cook duck. Excellent value and a good experience.

— Murray

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

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

Very enjoyable day. Our chef Wendy was very helpful and knowledgeable, and I now feel confident to make some sensational recipes. Overall it was a great experience and I look forward to attending more classes in future.

— Monica

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

Highly recommended. joyful and friendly staff providing best knowledge to all participants. It was a wonderful experience.

— Eranda

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

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.

— Margaret

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

— Virgina

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.

— Helen

We're a ducking good time

We’ve got hands-on classes, talented chefs, and a whole lot of fun!
