About our Cookery Courses in Cambridge

Whether you’re an amateur cook, food enthusiast, budding Masterchef, or looking for a team building event, there’s certainly a course to inspire you. All our Cookery Courses are created for private parties with the emphasis on fresh local produce.

Our Cookery Courses can be as simple or complex as you would like. We create the food and the complexity of techniques around you. It’s more or less a la carte cooking. We’ll start with a blank slate and design the menu around you. You might want to focus on Italian, Indian or Spanish cuisine, desserts, pastries or bread or a bit of everything…. Or if you’re the kind of person who likes to nibble all day then our Italian antipasti, Spanish Tapas or Portuguese pesticos are perfect for you. We promise that you will come away with lots of ideas to show off at home! All events are for private parties only and indicated timings are the availability during the week.
