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

Our finger food class with Luv-a-Duk absolutely smashed my expectations, I cannot recommend it enough! Undoubtably a 10/10 experience. The chef, Karol was bursting with excitement and enthusiasm and Liz was so welcoming and supportive during cooking. We had so much fun and left with a very full stomach! Absolutely brilliant value for money, thank you ladies, we thoroughly enjoyed our time with you!

— Matthew

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

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

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

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

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

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!

— Julie

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

— Sue

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

Had so much fun at this cooking class. The teacher was super helpful and patient with us and we ended up cooking a delicious French duck feast!

— Stella

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

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

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

My second (and not my last) class here with Wendy instructing. A very well designed and clean kitchen. Very well organised and great support from the team. You learn so much else other than the large number of recipes. Really excellent value.

— Iain

Fingerfood workshop sounded promising and the food that was prepared was interesting and delicious. Unfortunately there was a delayed start to the class due to an administrative error in the arrival times, which made the whole workshop / cooking appear rushed and left a negative vibe until the end of what should have been a relaxed conclusion of our lunch. That was disappointing indeed!Still Luv a duck is a wonderful product and I will happily continue cooking it!

— Marion

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

Loved the class, heaps of food to eat and great ideas for the next finger food occasion.

— Barbara

Great experience. Learnt a lot about cooking duck and preparing. lots of different finger food items which were all delicious

— winnie

Thanks to Wendy and Gail for a great morning/afternoon of learning, cooking and having a great time.
Would totally recommend the course.
We are looking into our next class.

— Sue

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

Had a awesome night cooking with Karol & Rhonda, highly recommended, will be back for sure

— Cameron

We're a ducking good time

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