WHAT TO EXPECT

Enter a relaxed setting and meet your class chef and start the day or evening with a cocktail and  Levantine canapé.

You will be invited into the kitchen where you will meet the class and find your work station where your apron and ingredients will be waiting. The class usually kicks off with a demo and a casual question and answer routine while you start to acclimatise. We are on hand at all times to take you through the process.
This course is designed for beginners and skilled cooks alike.

Lunch and drinks are included.
