Fish Filleting Demonstration Workshop

Learn how to filet a fish in Sydney!



1.5 hours Class size 1 to 10 guests    

  $140 (Afterpay available)

This class lives up to its name: in not much more than an hour, we'll teach you everything you need to know about filleting a fish: what tools you need, what kind of fish to buy, how different shaped fish need different treatments, and a host of essential filleting techniques.
Once we've shown you the ropes, we'll set you loose (with helpers, of course) to do it yourself!
You'll be testing your skills on the freshest daily market catch, which you'll get to take home together with plenty of recipe inspiration for how to cook your fillets to perfection.
Please be aware that this is not a hands-on cooking class. This class is a demonstration and hands-on filleting session only.

  • 5/5 from Vesna Trobec, attended Mar 2025: Such a great class and really good value. The demonstrating teacher was very clear and covered a lot of information quickly and well. She taught us how to use the tools in the correct way, which I wouldn't have been able to pick up without a demonstration. You had several opportunities to practice the new skills, which means they're now committed to my memory. Thank you!
  • 5/5 from Laura Dowell, attended Jan 2025: Loved this class. It was everything I had hoped for. Jen the teacher was very engaging and helpful. Would 110% do another class at this place. Only downfall; I wish I knew the parking was free when taking a class, before I caught public transport to the fish markets.
  • 5/5 from Dave Ascott, attended Oct 2024: The course was fantastic, I’ve wanted to learn how to fillet for a long time. The teacher was great and took her time to make sure everyone understood and was on hand to answer questions, I’d highly recommend this course
