This class was a revelation – of the teacher’s knowledge and professionalism, of the doable possibilities with duck, and our own capacities to produce amazing appetisers. A wonderful experience – will definitely do another class. Thank you to the team.

Well it was the most amazing experience learning to cook with Duck. Karole was so a delight to work with, very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does teaching the class, We made delicious dishes, learnt new techniques and of course got to try everything the group made.
Had a great time and also met some lovely people.
I will certainly be back!
Thanks Luv A Duk

— Josie

Highly Recommend! It was great fun learning and eating. Well organised and generous amount of recipes to prepare. Just wished we could of taken some home.

— Kerrilyne

We luved it. Had a fun night and learnt some things about duck. Wendy was fantastic and we would definitely do another.

— Diane

Thoroughly enjoyed the class and everything that we made, Wendy was once again very informative and giving of her knowledge and time. Absolutely loved the sliders, tarts and pies. Well worth attending and will be doing another class soon.

— Wendy

Fingerfood workshop sounded promising and the food that was prepared was interesting and delicious. Unfortunately there was a delayed start to the class due to an administrative error in the arrival times, which made the whole workshop / cooking appear rushed and left a negative vibe until the end of what should have been a relaxed conclusion of our lunch. That was disappointing indeed!Still Luv a duck is a wonderful product and I will happily continue cooking it!

— Marion

The food was delicious and plentiful. My only gripe was that the instructor explained the entire menu before we got into the kitchen, and again afterwards before we started cooking – there was a lot of wasted time! Also the level of assumed general cooking knowledge is low, so be prepared for that if you’re already comfortable in the kitchen.

— Susie

Excellent class, lots of fun, lots of food and even booze! Would definitely recommend.

— Katharine

We were taught lots of new and delicious finger food recipes. Wendy was an excellent teacher and had so much food to eat a really great night out as well.

— Pat

A fantastic cooking class. I learnt, with confidence, how to prepare a good selection of duck finger food. Well organised with supportive staff. Well done!

— Helen

I did a Google review. Please refer to that.

— E

There was so much to learn on the evening. I think the best was being taught how to roast a duck correctly for the best crisp skin. The whole evening was better than we expected, Wendy is a great ambassador for Luv a Duck she is so happy to help and share her knowledge. Everyone got on well and the banquet at the end of the class was 10 out of 10. I will certainly being some more classes.

— Sandra

Loved the finger food class. This is my second class and I’m continued to be amazed how versatile duck is. Knowledgeable and friendly instructors. Looking forward to a third class sometime soo

— Kerrianne

Loved it. Wendy is an excellent teacher and very good at explaining everything simply.
No recipe was too complicated and everything was delicious.

— Jill

A really informative night with plenty of yummy food and great staff. Would definitely do it again !!!!

— Leanne

Learnt a lot, ate a lot and had lots of fun

— Heather

Great class and super passionate presenter. I normally obsess over making everything from scratch and I loved that this class gave me some great cheats to whip some really tasty bites quickly. It was also a great introduction to the wider range of Luv-a-Duck that I wasn’t aware of.

— Sarah

Kevin and I enjoyed our finger food class. Wendy was an excellent presenter and teacher. The recipes were all very different and delicious.

— Margaret

Wendy managed the 6 groups with ease. She was aware of what was happening, and managed to ‘be there’ every time we needed help. She made a very positive contribution to the activities.

— Ron

Tonight we had a great time learning about duck. Karol was terrific, her knowledge of Luv-a-duck and cooking was fabulous. I loved all the various dishes we made and the hands on experience of this class (her roast duck was exquisite) and all the recipes we made and tasted were spot on. I keep dreaming of the sliders and those mouth watering Thai duck cakes. I cant wait to come back and do another class, next time I am going to bring some friends, its a truly wonderful experience.
