Reviews

Great class with personal interaction from the tutor chefs. The duck cakes and chocolate tart was a treat.

— Shardul

Highly Recommend! It was great fun learning and eating. Well organised and generous amount of recipes to prepare. Just wished we could of taken some home.

— Kerrilyne

Wendy managed the 6 groups with ease. She was aware of what was happening, and managed to ‘be there’ every time we needed help. She made a very positive contribution to the activities.

— Ron

Well it was the most amazing experience learning to cook with Duck. Karole was so a delight to work with, very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does teaching the class, We made delicious dishes, learnt new techniques and of course got to try everything the group made.
Had a great time and also met some lovely people.
I will certainly be back!
Thanks Luv A Duk

— Josie

The food was delicious and plentiful. My only gripe was that the instructor explained the entire menu before we got into the kitchen, and again afterwards before we started cooking – there was a lot of wasted time! Also the level of assumed general cooking knowledge is low, so be prepared for that if you’re already comfortable in the kitchen.

— Susie

Wonderful! Such a great professional set up with fantastic teacher & delicious food.. A most enjoyable & informative few hours.

— Sue

We had a marvellous morning cooking all kinds of different dishes, Wendy and Mark were very helpful and informative. The food was amazing, from our morning we can now confidently cook all kinds of finger food.

— Heather

What an experience! So much fun and being hands on, we learned heaps about all sorts of duck finger food dishes from the friendly and more than capable staff of Wendy, Rhonda and Carole who were so efficient. So good that we have booked a group of eight for their Asian cooking class. I couldn’ recommend the experience more highly as it was certainly much greater than the money paid.

— Debbie

A fantastic cooking class. I learnt, with confidence, how to prepare a good selection of duck finger food. Well organised with supportive staff. Well done!

— Helen

A memorable experience with great guidance and support. The culinary outcomes were delicious!

— Darryl

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 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

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

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

— Steve

The instructors had great knowledge but the class was very rushed and all over the place. It felt like we were being pushed to leave. At this stage would not recommend going

— Maree

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

— Heather

A very enjoyable fun class where we felt comfortable and welcome .
A huge range of duck finger foods were created , taste tested and discussed.
The recipes with instruction suit all abilities and use ingredients readily accessible in most home kitchens.
Once demonstrated these recipes are easy and fun to make at home – our children were impressed with our recreations!!
Great gift for all ages .

— Janete

We luved it. Had a fun night and learnt some things about duck. Wendy was fantastic and we would definitely do another.

— Diane

Had a great time in the finger food course and would recommend it as a great starting point. If you were trying duck for the first time or wanting to cook it yourself it’s a great experience and we’ll do it again.

— Terry

We had a great time with Liz and Wendy in the new kitchen. Its such an inviting place to learn. The recipes were easy to follow and super delicious, and I was very happy with the generous portions. I love learning in this kitchen and am looking forward to coming back again.

— Tara

Luv-A-Duck classes are always fun, delicious and really hands on. You learn how to easily handle duck and prepare fabulous dishes that are very easily recreated at home. It is a very relaxed night with great teachers.

— Marie

Tonight we had a great time learning about duck. Karol was terrific, her knowledge of Luv-a-duck and cooking was fabulous. I loved all the various dishes we made and the hands on experience of this class (her roast duck was exquisite) and all the recipes we made and tasted were spot on. I keep dreaming of the sliders and those mouth watering Thai duck cakes. I cant wait to come back and do another class, next time I am going to bring some friends, its a truly wonderful experience.

— Kellie

We're a ducking good time

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