At Peninsula Gourmet Cooking School, we believe that knowledge is priceless. Tamara is well known for creating easy, approachable recipes to share with her students and this has kept them coming back time and time again.Â
Â
She teaches her classes in a way that is sophisticated enough for serious food lovers, but simple enough for those who haven’t had much experience in the kitchen and because the classes are always small (maximum 12), everyone is as involved as they want to be.
Â
Whether you’ve cooked for years and just need some inspiration or whether you are just starting out on your cooking journey, you’ll find plenty of delicious classes to attend.
Â
Gift vouchers and group bookings are a speciality with our classes perfect for ‘team building’ experiences.
