During your day
Arrive at 10.00am. Enjoy a hot drink and homemade snack in our welcoming riverside Aga room where you can meet and chat with your fellow cooks.
At around 10.15am move upstairs to the fully equipped cooking and demonstration area. Each cook will have their own ‘galley’ style kitchen to work from. There are also facilities for those with disabilities and for children of varying ages.
Your course will start with a demonstration by your chef. You will then return to your kitchen, copy what they have shown you and start cooking…..
Lunch is a social affair back in the Aga room. Something light and delicious accompanied by a glass of wine.
The afternoon session is some more watching, learning and doing, with a refreshment break somewhere along the way.
The course finishes at around 4.00pm. You will be able to take your creations home with you so you may want to bring some plastic containers on the day. You will also be given a booklet containing all the day’s recipes.
Please call for late availability bookings on this course.
