“The contents of the day really matched what I wanted from this class, giving me so much more confidence and knowledge in cooking fish. I also learnt how to get that depth of flavour in the cooking process which was evident from the bouillabaisse dish – didn’t realise I could cook something so posh!”

“The Fish class today more than met my expectations. The tutor was enthusiastic, positive, engaging and excellent. It was just what I wanted and a great start to cooking – thank you for a great day!” (Elaine Macaulay)

“The contents of the fish cookery class matched my needs perfectly – it gave me the confidence to cook and skin a fish and create my own sauces. The class was nicely paced and your tutor had great knowledge and was very enthusiastic.”

“Thank you for the excellent day of tuition on my fish cookery class. I love fish and I wanted to learn more ways to cook it and the class did exactly what it says on the can – but I am also now confident about how to buy it, where to buy it, what to buy, and I have 7 new recipes to cook different types of fish. The class was much more than I imagined it could be. A huge thanks, see you again for sure!”

“Well this is my 4th course so that speaks volumes – superb as always. The classes have so much energy, fun amongst the group, creativity in the content and a really great atmosphere. Highly recommended.”

“I’ve always wanted to cook more fish dishes and having attended this class I now feel able to cook fish and enjoy it. The class content and format really exceeded my expectations. Starting with the introduction, where to buy, what to look out for and the different type of fish was really useful. The fact that so much of the menial prep was done meant that we could spend more time actually cooking, and that it was all hands on was fabulous. You asked how you could improve the class – impossible! 10/10 for structure, planning and delivery.”

“Excellent class – great tips on how to cut and prep the fish, how to look for fresh fish and where to buy ingredients. Loved the fact that we learn how to buy fish. Would highly recommend the Fish master class to others.”

I am an experienced cook, are all the courses suitable for me?

All courses are suitable for all levels as the classes are based more specifically on the cuisine rather than skill. The Chef will ensure that you have the assistance required to enjoy the day and really develop your cooking skills. If you are an experienced cook, you may particularly enjoy our Advanced classes. Please contact us if you would like further guidance.

I can’t handle spicy food; will your classes be too hot for me?

In our cookery classes, you get to make your own food to suit your own palate, so although we provide guidelines, you can adapt each recipe to suit your taste, as spicy or as not spicy as you’d like.

I’m a complete beginner, what class should I do?

Our cookery classes are not based on skill as such; they are all hands on and taught by an expert chef who can lead you through the cooking processes so even a beginner should be fine on our classes. However, if you want to start at the very beginning, and develop an understanding of food hygiene, knife skills and safety in the kitchen, our beginner’s cookery class would be the one for you.

I’m gluten intolerant, what classes can I attend?

Our Indian, Thai, and Nutritional classes can be easily altered and tailored to suit a gluten free diet. Please just ensure you make us aware of this at the time of booking.

If I purchase this cookery class voucher can the recipient exchange it for another class of their preference?

Alternatively, you can purchase an open voucher that can be redeemed against any class of the equivalent value.

Is there anything I need to bring to the class?

Yes, you will need to bring some Tupperware/plastic containers (quantity will be specified in your booking confirmation letter sent via email) with you to take home some of the delicious recipes you will cook on the day.
