Amazing cooking class - We had the best cooking experience, the head chef (I am so sorry I don't want to misspell your name!!) was absolutely brilliant, she was extremely knowledgeable, super friendly and fun to chat to and really let us learn properly which is great at some cooking classes you can end to watching too much. The food was incredible too, which says something because I am not the best cook :) would highly recommend.

Fabulous Cooking Class - Head chef was full of knowledge and enjoyed teaching. The walk through the market was a real education, we had walked through the previous day without any real understanding and f the fresh food we were looking at so having the Chef explain so much of what we were looking at was really valuable
