Riki, the Cooking Professor, lived up to her promise of providing an entertaining cooking experience and we would enjoy eating the results of our (team) efforts. Riki is one of those very talented people who wants to share her love of cooking with everyone. She provided lots of little 1% take homes like how to cut and dice an onion with almost no tears !! I can highly recommend the Spanish Tapas class that we thoroughly enjoyed (eating) and will be back soon to relive the experience with another class.

Spanish tapas class was worth every cent!
Riki made everyone welcome and turned a group of strangers into a productive and friendly team in 2 short hours who then sat down at the end and enjoyed a tapas meal as friends.
The class was informative, fun and the food was sensational.
It was great that Riki also took the time to explain some of the history of tapas, why she used one product instead of another.
I will definitely be back for more of these classes!

This is normally a cooking teaching venue but we decided on one of their other options. We visited with friends for a sit down pre cooked meal. It featured Paella and a range of tapas.
The seating is at long tables to be shared with others and they provided a Spanish dancer mid meal. The chef also came out to introduce themself and to ask the patrons if they enjoyed their meals.
All of the food was delicious and more than enough for all to enjoy. Great experience and would recommend.

The workshop was a gift from my daughter who sadly was unable to attend. I took along a friend who is a regular and we had a fabulous evening with Riki and ten other guests.
Riki’s instructions were excellent, the group shared the tasks in groups of 3 or 4 and we all got to see what each group was doing.
Through the preparation Riki gave us numerous tips which cannot be learnt from following a recipe. These included a simple but effective way of dicing an onion (no tears) and advice on when to add each of the spices and different types of the seafood used.
Riki pre prepared the ingredients for the Churros, which she cooked at the end.
The resulting Paella was delicious and the Churros the best I have ever tasted.
I look forward to returning and will treat my daughter next time.

Such a good night with a very friendly, knowledgeable instructor. Very easy instructions, everything laid out well with plenty of room to move about. The food was absolutely delicious, loads of it and we all took something home as we couldn't eat any more! Loads of parking available too. I've already booked in for another course!

What a great night at the Cooking Professor attending the Middle Eastern cooking class with Riki. Both my husband and I attended the cooking session and were very impressed with Riki's cooking knowledge, the fun of the class, and the amazing food. So delicious and I now have a real appreciation for Middle Eastern food. I won't be making my hummus with canned chick peas ever again Riki. Absolutely loved the night and the whole experience.

Great evening spent with a remarkable cooking teacher. Learnt some recipes for foods I have always wanted to cook.
I have always loved some of these foods and the recipes we learnt were delicious - as good as I have ever tasted. Hopefully we can duplicate them.
would highly recommend this class and Rikki as the teacher. This is the second class we have done.

Great night, easy to follow instructions, delicious food. Riki makes cooking so enjoyable and points out when things go wrong what to do. All finished off with a huge feast. Lovely company and a very hard working lady who does all the cleaning up. Been to a Spanish evening with live dancing and huge banquet. Great gift ideas look it up.

My husband and I took the Jerusalem Street Food class. It's the first class we've ever done. He's a better cook than me, but we both enjoyed the class. Such delicious food and we had such fun making it. We learned heaps of little tips. Even better, we got chance to eat what everyone had made at the end of the evening, and the recipes are emailed the next day. We're definitely going to make some of the recipes today.

Booked a class but couldn't find the place. Called the business and someone assisted with directions but I was so lost I ended up arriving 40mins late. The person running the class informed me that there was nothing for me to do so I could walk around and watch everyone else. She refused to let me go back another day. I was so upset after being late and not allowed to participate that I burst into tears and left. When we enquired about a refund or rebooking they refused. So my 30th birthday present was a huge waste of money and a devastating experience where we were treated rudely and inflexibly.

Hello Meleigh
It is with disappoint that we read your review. As discussed with you in person, your wife called and did not know where she was so it was very hard to give her directions. She arrived for her class 45mins after it had started - the Chef had no way of knowing that she would turn up by this stage so had to start the class without her, and assume that she was not attending. It is unfair on all the other class participants to wait hence the reason we advise people to arrive 15 mins early for a sharp start time.
We very kindly offered your wife and yourself a 50% discount to attend another class of which you declined.
Kind regards
The Cooking Professor
