When you’re on a first date…

First dates can be nerve-racking but the key lies in choosing good ideas for a first date. Bonding over food is always an excellent choice! A cooking class is one of the best date ideas in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane too. With a variety of culinary workshops taught by experienced chefs available across the country, it’s easy to find one that matches your taste buds. Put your favourite toppings on pizza, learn how to make traditional sushi or spice things up with Thai cooking.
No matter what you decide, you both will have so much fun in the kitchen learning how to cook delicious dishes together. It also encourages communication and teamwork—two essential ingredients in any relationship. At the end of it all, sit down and enjoy the fruits of your labour, sometimes even with a complimentary glass of bubbles—making cooking classes truly one of the most romantic things to do in Australia!

Pottery classes are the perfect choice
When it comes to couple gift ideas, nothing beats the satisfying experience of sinking your hands into clay. Pottery classes are an excellent way to connect with your partner on a deeper level. This tactile and creative activity allows you to focus on each other and create something beautiful together. We offer a wide range of pottery workshops across various locations in Australia. These ceramic classes promise an intimate and cosy environment where you both can lose yourselves in the therapeutic process of shaping and moulding clay. As one of the more intimate date ideas, pottery making will help you spend intentional quality time with one another and make something you can take home to cherish forever.
