Need some inspiration?
Would you like to cook a few new recipes?
Come to one of our workshops.
The day starts at 10am with coffee and ends with lunch at approximately 1.30pm.
We at CookAbility believe in hands on experience and therefore there is very little demonstration.
At the end of the workshop all the dishes cooked will be eaten and participants will take away with them all the recipes.
The cost is £35 per workshop or £50 for two so why not bring a friend.
This is an ideal unusual present for Birthdays, Christmas or any other occasion. Vouchers are available.
Further dates to come.
