Reviews

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

Just excellent!
We got lots of good ideas for finger food and snacks, and recipes to take home.
The way everything was set up ready to use was terrific.
Our instructor Karol was great, and Rhonda so helpful.
And the other people were most enjoyable company..
In all, it was a terrific night, loved it!

How to roast a duck and have crackly skin

— Julia

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

Thoroughly enjoyed the class and everything that we made, Wendy was once again very informative and giving of her knowledge and time. Absolutely loved the sliders, tarts and pies. Well worth attending and will be doing another class soon.

— Wendy

Great experience & duck is now on our menu, thanks

— Jacqueline

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

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

— Sue

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

Luv A Duck is fantastic. This is the 4th or 5th class I have done with them. Knowledgeable instructors. Super helpful assistants. Quality food. Easy to follow instructions. Modern facilities. Fantastic way to spend a chunk of your day!

— Lee

The trainers Wendy and Nicki were incredible. Very friendly and knowledgeable, and the food that was provided was incredible.
Left rolling out the building and will most definitely be doing more of these classes!

— Claire

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

Wendy and Rhonda make the experience easy and the food is delicious and so much of it! It was my second course at Luv-a-Duck and it won’t be my last.

— Melanie

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

Great class but best to be with a friend to work together on your 2 dishes.
2-3 dishes I wouldnot bother doing at home but good tasting them on the night
Helped throughout the night .
Lots to eat at the end along with a glass or two of champs/ wine .

— Pam

This was my third Luv a Duck cooking class. The teachers make it very easy to make us all look very good and I always go home feeling happy and acoomplished with more fabulous recipes in my culinary resume.
I’ll be back !

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

— Zyg

It was a great night and lovely to share with friends ! I am so pleased Susie suggested it .

— Maree

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

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're a ducking good time

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