“A very big thankyou to Dave for taking such good care of Isabel when she joined the childrens cookery course today 03.09.11. She had a ball and has not stopped talking about how interesting it was and how grown up she felt. Thank you once again.”

Marina
“I had to write straight away to say thank you both to yourself and Dave for such a fantastic evening. The menu was spot on, Dave was excellent, the venue perfect and it was really good value for money. We will certainly be trying out the dishes we made again. We will be recommending you to all of our friends and hopefully be back on another course ourselves.”
K. Davies
“Just wanted to say thank you for a great day today on the knife skills course. I thought that we would only learn about using knives but to prep and then cook the ingredients and thyen eat them was fantastic. Many thanks and I will be recommending you to friends as well as booking myself on to some more course.”
S. Wright
“Thanks a million again for a great night on Thursday. Everyone I spoke to thought it was great – fantastic food, great ambience and good service. The event worked perfectly for us in enabling us to mingle and chat with one another compared to a more conventional Christmas meal where you only really get to speak to the people sitting next to you.
In fact, I’ve already recommended you to a number of people who I met on Friday and Saturday!”
G. Burke
“Firstly I would like to say how I thoroughly enjoyed myself on the recent gentleman’s cookery course. It was informative and a first for me – a novice cook. The choice of dishes was very good and each one was taught well. When arriving home my wife dived in to my goodies! I know she will expect great things now! We are both hoping to attend another course in the future.”
S. Giddings
“I just wanted to write to thank you so much for a really pleasent day on Saturday. I had no idea what the girls had planned for my hen do so attending the Inspired Gourmet school was a really lovely surprise and something very personel to me, they clearly know me very well!
You have a really great set up there and if I were to think about going back into catering on a professional basis I could really see myself working in a place just like yours.”
L. Murphy
“I just wanted to let you know we had a great day yesterday. Everyone is positively buzzing today. The team have all said today what a fantastic time they had and want to do it again!”
S. Knell
“Many, many thanks for a superbly catered day on Saturday. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed all the lunch and the evening food, and have made many comments about the quality of the food and the friendliness of your staff. You really did make the day very easy for us.”
K. McIntosh
“Just wanted to say thank you for a great evening! I attended the Italian cooking evening yesterday and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I must say I was a bit apprehensive as I wasn’t quite sure what to expect and thought I might not be up to scratch. However, I was made to feel so welcome and at ease and thoroughly enjoyed the cooking and menu.”

“We would like to thank Dave for an excellent evening last night, he was an excellent teacher and true gentleman. John thouroughly enjoyed his surprise birthday present, he didn’t stop buzzing all night. We loved the experience and the food was really good and things that we’ll try again. I am sure it will not be long before we book ourselves onto another course.”
M. Betts
“Just had to tell you that I had a dinner party the following Saturday after the course. I had guests with 5 food intolerances between them! But I managed to use the duck recipe, the vegetable puree and I did the souffles. It was all delicious and my friends were most impressed.
Really looking forward to doing another in 2010.”
L. Morris
“I just wanted to say what a fantastic time the children had today cooking with Dave. Although I knew they would both enjoy it, it was better than we had imagined and a great experience for them both in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. We have all enjoyed the food they made and I’m sure they will be making it many times over.”
M. Steele
“Just wanted to drop you a line to thank you so much for yesterday. Georgia really enjoyed herself and came home filled with even greater enthusasium for cooking. The variety of dishes you included in the day were fantastic and we enjoyed tasting her efforts. I have looked at the web site and will definately be booking an adult course. “
J. Clark
“Thanks so much for the other day – we had a great time. From what I gather most of us had bread and chilli sauce for dinner on the Sunday! I did mine with a chicken salad and it was lovely.
The set up you have is really impressive.”
E. Guyton
“Just a quick email to thank you for Sunday, we all enjoyed the experience very much as did our husbands, mine said it was a super meal and this is from someone who orders, soup, steak and chips!!
We were all waxing lyrical about it at the golf club yesterday so hopefully you’ll get some more enquiries, that’s if we didn’t put you off!”
P. Smith
“We have just completed the butchery course that you kindly arranged for us last night. We were all yet again really impressed with the course delivery and really felt we got what we had originally hoped for. I was also impressed with the way you handled my original feedback. I thought you may like to have a paragraph for your website/guestbook.
My friends and I have just finished your butchery course and were delighted with the new skills that we learnt. Your venue is imacculate and chefs are both knowlegable and entertaining. Once you sit down to eat your days work you feel really proud and inspired. Thank you and Dave very much from all of us.
Thank you once again and we look forward to our next course.”
P. Killingley
“I just wanted to instantly write a huge thank you to Dave who took us for our Dinner Date cookery class last night. We had the most fantastic time with a great bunch of people. The cookery class was informative, relaxed and great great fun. The place instantly exceeded my expectation on arrival with the welcome drinks and canapés on arrival and a really warm welcome. I noticed how spotless the place was and such a great venue. The food was fantastic and plentiful and great great value for money.
Please say thank you to Dave personally – we were the two wild girls that enjoyed dancing in between the food preparation and making it a such an fun evening”
L. Litter
“I was at the Thai cookery class yesterday and I would like to thank John and Adam and Dave for a fantastic day. Wendy and I took the left overs home for our husbands and they too loved it.
The day was very interesting and relaxed, so please do pass on our thanks to all. We will definitely be recommending to friends.”
J. Blacker
“We’d like to say thank you to yourself and Dave for an excellent and informative day last Sunday. We all walked away with new knowledge and skills and are determined to ensure that the knowledge is put to good use and that the skills are practised and (hopefully) improved.”
D. Hale
“Apologies for not replying sooner. WHAT A GREAT DAY!
John was brilliant! Please pass on my thanks.
I learned so much about food, cooking, cooking techniques, flavours, and all thoroughly enjoyable. John also has an infectious love about food and cooking, and his depth, breath and passion as a top chef, means any utensil, or ingredient or receipt becomes fascinating!
The selection of recipes and activities meant the day flew past, yet never too much nor overwhelming, and I loved the wine and meals as we went.
It was very relaxed, and great to make “mistakes” as we went along, and great John had the time ever watchful eye to check and comment as a group and individually. All the food I took home was adored!
And the tortillas are an amazing success. Everywhere I now go meeting friends for dinner, I am now teaching how to make them too! Just like learning to ride a bicycle, you cannot “read” how to do it, you need to muddle in and be shown as you go.”
F. Bernstein
“Just wanted to say a very BIG thank you to you and John for the party yesterday. All the children said how much they really enjoyed it and couldn’t stop talking about it in the car on the way home. Alice and George wore their apron and wanted to help with our dinner – I wonder how long it will last?!!”
