Brian Spear • Oct 2020

Teacher was excellent. Instructions were clear and easily understood. Premises and equipment were good and food well prepared. Best night out I’ve had in Sydney. Good food. Good value. Great host.

Mary Larkin • Sep 2020

The class was a great combination of well selected recipes and clear and informative instruction including excellent techniques and explanations to match. Paul balances pace with the opportunity to practice and engage.

Lawrence White • Jul 2019

Very enjoyable and informative class. Comfortable classroom. Enjoyed eating the food and bringing some home as well.
We will definitely be cooking some of the dishes at home and looking into more recipes that use loomi. All of the other spices will be fairly easy to source.
