  • As an ‘alright’ chef I wanted to try a cooking class to see if I would be able to learn some new tricks and skills. Myself and two friends attended the dinner party cooking class and as well learning how to make a beautiful meal we also had an absolute blast! Diana has the BEST personality and kept as laughing the whole time. She is a fabulous chef and managed to teach my friend who had never cooked much more than a frozen pizza how to make Scallops with a vegetable ragout, Duck breast with cherry jus and passionfruit soufflé. We had a brilliant time and we will definitely be visiting again to try one of the other wonderful classes they have on offer! We truly felt like as well as learning to cook we had made some friends.

  • Splendid night. Diana and Sophie were awesome, extraordinary fun and extremely learned. Didnot anticipate that a cookery course will be so pleasant. An incredible gathering, free streaming wine and heaps of valuable tips and traps. I learnt stacks and had a considerable measure of enjoyment doing it. Toward the finish of the course all of you take a seat to eat what you have cooked around a major, inviting supper table. Splendid - exceptionally prescribed.

  • My bridesmaids arranged Avenue Cooley school for my hen party. It was great. I felt so loaf and everybody had an awesome time adapting new things and eating loads of tasty baked things toward the end. Richard was cordial and made everybody feel at home. I would most certainly prescribe.
