Great hands-on class with lots of tips and inspiration for cooking with duck. The kitchen is very well equipped and the instructor was friendly and knowledgeable. Recommend.

— Joyce

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

Highly enjoyable class, great teachers, super tasty recipes, abundant food and great insight into a proud and successful company. Anyone who loves duck will have fun at these classes. My regret is not clearing my fridge before the class so I could take full advantage of the 10% discount in the shop after the class.

— Jill

This was my second cooking class at Luv A Duck and both were wonderful. Wendy and Joan made us feel very welcome and guided us through the day with ease and great courtesy. Loved the food and will make some of the receipes very soon. Thank you.

— Jo

This is my second course at Luv a Duck, once again one of the best courses I have done, Wendy does a fantastic job, the food was delicious and easy to make receipes, I took my daughter she also thoroughly enjoyed herself. Highly recomend the courses at Luv a Duck, Sheryl

— Sheryl

Karol is awesome. This was my second luvaduck cooking class, both have been fantastic, will definitely consider a third.

— Nadia

This is the third class I’ve had the privilege of attending. Wendy is brilliant… Even after 12 years, her passion continues to shine through as she helps each and everyone cook their delightful duck recipes. There are many cooking classes in Melbourne but not as organised and enjoyable as this one. Thanks for another great day guys! Love your work 🙂

— Hayley

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

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

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

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

Thanks for a fantastic cooking class. We learnt really useful skills and some excellent recipes.

— Bridet

Excellent class, lots of fun, lots of food and even booze! Would definitely recommend.

— Katharine

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

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

Great class and super passionate presenter. I normally obsess over making everything from scratch and I loved that this class gave me some great cheats to whip some really tasty bites quickly. It was also a great introduction to the wider range of Luv-a-Duck that I wasn’t aware of.

— Sarah

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

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

Kevin and I enjoyed our finger food class. Wendy was an excellent presenter and teacher. The recipes were all very different and delicious.

— Margaret

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

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

— Shardul

We're a ducking good time

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