What to expect

Expect to be on your feet for most of the five hours, rolling up your sleeves alongside the host in a working kitchen environment. You'll move through each course methodically, learning how to handle ingredients with care and understanding why certain techniques matter. The focus stays on approachable methods using gear you'd find in a standard home setup. Tasting happens as you cook, and a full lunch sits down at the end. The atmosphere is relaxed and encouraging—this isn't about perfection, but building genuine confidence in the kitchen.

Good to know

Wear comfortable, practical clothing and closed-toe shoes. Public transport links are close by if you're not driving. Bring the recipe cards home and expect to refer to them the first few times you cook these dishes back in your own space.
