Class Description

Where:  
Lori's teaching kitchen at Terrigal, on the Central Coast of NSW.

Class Outline:  
Lori specializes in numerous cuisines from Italian & Mediterranean to Thai, Chinese & Vietnamese. A class will normally involve dishes suggested by Lori or chosen by you and then made from scratch. The classes are hands on or "look & listen" with demonstrations following step by step! 

Our classes are unlike any other. The atmosphere is light and jovial. Class sizes are kept small to ensure everyone gets individual attention with all questions being answered and help being offered when needed.
