10 Classes & Workshops in Islington That You Shouldn't Miss

July 18, 2021 Esmeralda Fenner

The crown jewels, Buckingham Palace, Camden Market…in London, history collides with art, fashion, food, and good British ale. A perfect day is different for everyone: culture aficionados shouldn't miss the Tate Modern and the Royal Opera House. If you love fashion, Oxford Street has shopping galore. For foodies, cream tea at Harrod’s or crispy fish from a proper chippy offers classic London flavor. Music and book buffs will love seeing Abbey Road and the Sherlock Holmes Museum (at 221B Baker Street, of course).

Food at 52

Much more than a cookery school, this is a full-on culinary experience. Come join us in the kitchen for an amazing feast that you cook. Bring your own group or meet new cuisine-savvy friends as the wine flows and the kitchen heats up. The perfect alternative to another boring London attraction.

We have just completed our second cookery course with John, Emily and the team at Food at 52 and were as delighted as with the first. We can thoroughly recommend the Southern Indian and Moroccan full day courses and will certainly be back to learn more. Have also bought gift vouchers for family and friends, they make wonderful presents.

As we couldn't do any team building activity in person, we decided to try Jenius Social's virtual team building cooking class and everyone in the team loved it. All the ingredients were delivered to each of us on the day and then we connected through Zoom for a live cooking class with a very friendly chef who guided us step by step to cook some delicious South Asian dishes, of which one of the best green curries I've ever eaten, with the curry paste prepared by Jenius' chef. We also did some group activities and rotated between different groups in order to allow us to connect with everyone which I found great. Highly recommend!

Had a fantastic evening last night at the pornographic taxidermy course. The experience lasted around 5 hours in all, as the instructor was thorough and patient in her tuition. We did not feel rushed at all, and had support and guidance throughout. It was so much fun, and we were able to skin, prepare and stuff a pair of mice and pose and adorn them with some interesting accessories that were helpfully provided! Really pleased with the result and it is proudly on display above our mantelpiece! Thanks again for a fantastic evening!

Having enjoyed doing a sushi class here a while back, I booked a dim sum class for a gift and it was great fun. Great as a group or alone. They even catered for my sister who is gluten free (separate steamer, separate utensils, gluten free soy sauce etc) which was amazing. Would definitely recommend.

I attended the Improver's class and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was really relaxed and pretty much tailored at whatever we wanted! Lucy was so enthusiastic and warm, she's a great teacher and helped me to understand concepts such as bounce and flourishing. I'd highly recommend taking a class here - it's really worth the money and you get a beautiful practice pad with all your work in to take home! Thank you for a lovely morning Lucy :)
