A really excellent experience! Lots of fun and so relaxed! Ailsa is a great teacher - I’m not the best at cooking and yet my meal was delicious!
We went to a Japanese cooking class with Ailsa as part of a Hen Do today. The food was amazing and Ailsa is absolutely brilliant. Everything flowed really well and we had a fantastic day.
We did the Lebanese cooking class for my Hen Do, we had the best time! The food was amazing, Ailsa was very knowledgeable and a great teacher.
We did Ailsa’s cooking class as a hen do activity and it was PERFECT! Ailsa was so great & friendly, and a very clear teacher. The food was so yummy and would definitely cook again!
