“A wonderful experience! Steve was a great host - well prepared, friendly and informative. Not only did we learn to cook a great meal (butter chicken/paneer, pilau rice, salad, raita and flame grilled popadum), Steve shared great stories on the Indian culture and the history behind the popular meals we eat today. Suitable for anyone new to cooking or experienced cooks wanting to learn more. Thank you for a great session - hope to join another in the future!”

“I was looking for something a bit different to celebrate my Big Birthday and after seeing all his 5 star reviews, asked Steve if he could do a version of his Authentic Indian Cookery experience for a private party. Right from the outset I was impressed by Steve's prompt and friendly communication. Steve was very flexible finding the perfect venue for us, and was easily able to accommodate the 3 veggies amongst us (butter paneer is now my favourite dish - who knew!). On the day, all 13 of us had our own workstation already laid out for us, with all the equipment we needed and the ingredients measured out in containers. Steve took us through the cooking instructions one step at a time, which ensured nobody got left behind - pretty impressive when you consider the wide range of cooking experience amongst the 13 of us! Steve circulated round the kitchen to offer encouragement and advice - he even gave out his version of a 'Hollywood handshake'! By the end of the session we had each produced a main course, basmati rice and salad that you'd e happy to get from your favourite takeaway - which we promptly sat down to eat together. Steve even sent us the recipes and instructions so we can recreate the taste at home. From the initial contact through to eating the results of our efforts, Steve was friendly and professional. We learned a lot and had a lot of fun too! Steve's enthusiasm for cooking is infectious. Would definitely book again, and highly recommend if you're looking for a party with a difference!! Thanks Steve for making my big birthday so memorable!”

“Loved this experience. This was my present from my daughter. Nice warm welcome with a hot drink. Plenty of explanation of what we will be cooking. The class was a good pace and class size not too big. The instructor was approachable and very knowledgeable. He kept checking our progress to see if we were all at the same levels. Making the curry, rice and salad was good fun lots of tips on the way. We stayed at the end to eat our food and it didn’t disappoint. Thank you for a good morning cooking and thank you to your assistant who made sure we all were okay. Will look into doing another class.”
