The Akaroa Cooking School

We offer one day cooking classes for small groups using fresh local, seasonal ingredients. Our one day scheduled classes are mainly demonstration where you will recieve a folder with the recipes and the chef will demonstrate each dish from start to finish. Everyone is then seated at the large dining table and eats each dish with matching local wines. Our classes generally run from 10 - 4pm. We also offer private classes and corporate team building days and these are tailor made to suit your needs.

A group of friends and I went to a Delights of Malaysia class on Tuesday night. What a great time we had. They did some demonstrations to start with then we went to cook stations and processed to cook some of the dishes which was awesome and lots of fun. We enjoyed our culinary delights at the end of the evening around a large table which was very enjoyable and satisfying, knowing we had prepared some of the dishes ourselves. Kirsten and the team at Riverside kitchen are amazing, friendly and so informative, they mingled with us all through the night and helped us during our cooking endeavors. Can't wait to go to another class. Such a fun night to have with friends

Inspirational cooking classes for the home cook. Classes are held in my home kitchen for small groups of 4 to 8 students. All classes are built around the abundance of fresh, seasonal, local produce and are influenced by the various cuisines from around the world that I have enjoyed on my travels. Classes offer a "hands-on" experience for participants, at the end of which you will share a meal of the food you have created or will have goodies to take home.
