Cooking with native ingredients

Ross 15 February 2024

This class was excellent. The location was easy to get to and everyone was fun to be with. Have always wanted to know more about native ingredients and I’m now inspired to use them in my cooking.

Excellent mother- daughter time

Jayne 13 January 2024

I went to this cooking class with my teenaged daughter. We both really enjoyed trying all the ingredients and the taste was amazing.

Beyond what you could have asked for

Yakov 5 January 2024

This was unreal. The Chef's enthusiasm alone makes for a fun night. Then the food we cooked, that barramundi in banana leaf was the single best thing this human's ever had the pleasure of inviting down the hatch. Unreal, my partner said "it made her feel like a better person". Got to meet some cool people there and just overall 10/10 experience, great as a couple to get in the kitchen and learn about Aussie food
