Learnt how to portion the duck and also how to roast a perfect duck. Loved making the quesadillas and how easy they were to make. Also seeing all the other dishes and getting hints along the way. It was lovely to sit around the table and to be able to taste all the dishes and have a sip of wine. Would recommend the class

— Jane

This was the 2nd class we have done and they have both been really enjoyable and delicious! It’s a fun way to spend an evening, picking up a few tips and getting to enjoy some great dishes.

— Julia

So many great tips & tricks, only surpassed by the huge amount of food!! Fast-paced, fun & full. Thanks all

— Matt

Gosh, where shall I start. Firstly, this is a class not to be missed. A beautiful new stainless steel kitchen has been installed giving our work space more room to work.

The recipes for these finger food treats, put together by Karol Lesley, were varied from one dish to the other, and all using the same main ingredient, Luv-a-Duck Duck to make it shine.

— Margaret

There was so much to learn on the evening. I think the best was being taught how to roast a duck correctly for the best crisp skin. The whole evening was better than we expected, Wendy is a great ambassador for Luv a Duck she is so happy to help and share her knowledge. Everyone got on well and the banquet at the end of the class was 10 out of 10. I will certainly being some more classes.

— Sandra

Excellent experience and we learned some incredible and yet easy dishes. Got to try every dish and were absolutely full afterwards.
The two ladies karol and nikki were so knowledgeable but also so good at creating a friendly learning environment that helped the whole group gel within minutes!

— Anthony

We had such a fun time on the duck canapés class. Each couple made two different canapés to share with the group over a glass of wine and everything was well organised. A perfect introduction to cooking duck at home for those who love duck but are not sure where to begin with cooking it. Definitely looking at attending future cooking classes.

— Shane

It’s such a fun and rewarding cooking class. Highly recommended.

— Sarah

Great class with excellent tips from Wendy. Well set out kitchen. No pressure, plenty of food and lots to learn.
Thoroughly recommended.

Had been to a demonstration class before – this time was a hands on one. Loved learning how to cook some duck finger food with a glass or two of pinot noir to wash it down. Wendy is a terrific demonstrator and we learnt heaps. We had a living social voucher so made it very good value. Overall a very pleasant experience. Thoroughly recommend.

— Judy

Yes it was great. The teacher was great and had a very smart way of ensuring everyone finished their particular selection on time. My preference is to do less as there was a huge rush at the end. I would have preferred fewer dishes. But overall it was terrific. Loved the fact we were offered glass of wine then sat and ate and chatted up other participants in the class.

— Noela

My two friends and I had a great time at our cooking class. We learnt to cook some great finger food and also picked up a lot of good tips for cooking duck. The food was excellent, the kitchen set up really good and we had a ball. We’ll definitely be back for more.

— Anne

Fantastic atmosphere. Friendly, courteous and knowledgeable staff.
Look forward to our next class

— Steve

Loved the finger food class. This is my second class and I’m continued to be amazed how versatile duck is. Knowledgeable and friendly instructors. Looking forward to a third class sometime soo

— Kerrianne

Learnt a lot, ate a lot and had lots of fun

— Heather

We had a fabulous,informative and extremely entertaining night. It was very educational and we learnt so much in such a short time. So well structured with five teams of two working along side each other. Our teacher,Wendy and her assistant Ali,we’re so helpful and over the course of 3 hours wehad all created an entrée and main then sat and shared the banquet with some fine wine and good company sharing our experience and discussing the dishes we’d created. Certainly value for money and a lovely venue. Thanks so much!

— Lyn

This class was my third experience in working with duck,at the LuvaDuck kitchen.

It is a 2.5 hr journey with hands on experience,and is conducted in an exemplary way.
The staff are very attentive,knowledgeable and highly competent—especially Wendy who conducts the class. This class is very recommendable not only to those who desire to work with duck,but offers very good general cooking techniques.

I would highly recommend this and other LuvaDuck courses. Zyg Kaminski
