Trust me, you want to learn about cooking from someone who truly loves food and enjoys sharing her knowledge with people. This class is the perfect way to either start your culinary journey through Asian flavors, or to go deeper into the knowledge you might already have. She provides you with all ingredients you need, and gives you recipes and where to buy advice. Overall, a great class!
  • 5/5 from Aude, attended Aug 2024: Certainly! Here's a short and friendly review: I had a great time at the Thai and Vietnamese food class! Natasha was knowledgeable, the ingredients fresh, and the recipes easy to follow. The part of the hands-on experience was so much fun, and I left with new skills and delicious dishes. Highly recommend this class to anyone looking to explore Southeast Asian cuisine!
  • 5/5 from Sasha Landis, attended Jun 2024: Our class with Natasha was warm, genuine and abundant. Natasha’s passion for flavour and home cooking was infectious and her approach was intuitive rather strict recipe-based. We had a delicious night out for my friend’s birthday and I would highly recommend if you are looking for a demonstration style class/dinner with a couple of fun hands-on elements. Thank you Natasha!
  • 5/5 from Isaak Smith, attended May 2024: You're passionate about what you do, it's not just something you do for money or the sake of it. Great job, I loved your class!
  • 5/5 from Helen Theodorakopoulos, attended Apr 2024: Natasha was an amazing teacher. So knowledgeable and inspiring. The class was so much fun with so much food we couldn’t eat all and left with doggy bags. I cant wait to apply the skills i learnt into making my Pho and yummy rice paper rolls. I will definitely be back to another class to learn dumplings and wontons. Looking forward to coming back very soon. Thanks Natasha! It was a pleasure to have spent the afternoon with you and learning everything you had to offer.

  • 3/5 from Blake Wiggins, attended Feb 2024: I thought that this was going to be an actual cooking class where I would learn how to cook Thai & Vietnamese. Unfortunately this was more of a food appreciation class than a cooking class. Natasha was great but overall she cooked for us, not teaching us how to cook.
  • 5/5 from Alison Martin, attended Sep 2023: Natasha was lovely, kind, funny and informative and created a unique cooking class that I'll take into my own home.
  • 4/5 from Michelle Rose, attended Aug 2023: I really enjoyed this class with Natasha - she showed some great ways to mix flavours and the food was fresh and tasty. Natasha is very personable. I was under the impression that there would be more cooking involved - but it was more of a demonstration class.
  • 5/5 from Kevin Knutzen, attended Jan 2023: Was a great experience! Lovely person and fun! Will come back for another class again :)
