I run small and intimate cooking classes in my home in Northcote Point, Auckland.
Each class covers around 6-8 recipes, and variations or extra recipes are given.
All food is sampled and matching wines are served.
There are giveaways and prizes. New products are sampled.
All eggs are free-range from my own chickens. Lemons and other citrus are from my trees, and herbs and vegetables, well those the chickens haven’t eaten, are from my garden.
It’s a lovely way to spend an afternoon – I enjoy it, too!

Cooking Classes – Mid Winter Feast
Saturday 15th or Thursday 20th June
A mid winter feast is just an excuse to have friends around! It doesn’t have to be classic British cooking as in a mid winter Xmas feast – and this won’t be. But it will include great ideas for entertaining, and a delicious menu including comfort foods and seasonal produce.
Oh-la-la …More French with A Trip to Normandy
1.00-4.00pm approximately
$125.00
Thursday 27th or Saturday 29th June
Think Calvados, cider, cream, camembert, coquille St Jacques, crepes (all the c’s!) and galettes! A gorgeous collection, so perfect for this time of year.
And French wines, and gorgeous Calvados, too, and tasting specialties, of course.
1.00-4.00pm approximately
$125.00

Comments re classes
Hi Julie,
Many thanks for the wonderful afternoon spent at your home yesterday – and the fabulous food. It was certainly inspirational, introducing me to new foods (I’d never tasted fennel) and has given me some great tips (things I have been doing wrong for years! – like over cooking the garlic!).
The memory of some of the tastes you presented to us yesterday are still lingering deliciously.
My family and friends will hopefully benefit from my more adventurous cooking.
Thanks so much.
Regards
Carol Lichkus
Hi Julie,
thank you for the wonderful cooking class on Wednesday. We both really enjoyed the class and I tasted food in a way I never have before. You really emphasized the quality of the food to get the best out of it and I can really see why paying attention to the core product makes all the difference in the taste. The skills you showed were also really useful. Hopefully next year there will be another weekday course I can attend. Thanks again, it was great.
Regards,
Linda Hopkins
Dear Julie,
Meryll, Terry and I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed The Long Italian Lunch yesterday! We enjoyed it all and you were so generous with you time and tips – not to mention all the goodies!!!!
We are all inspired to cook a little differently now – I was especially intrigued by what you said of the Italian use of maybe max five ingredients a dish. Thank you again for having us in your home and special thanks too to your daughter for making us so welcome – it was a super day!
Kind regards,
Pamela Kayes.
A big thank you for such a wonderful afternoon yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole class and it was great to meet you and Ilaria (who worked tirelessly). I have always been a big fan of yours and admired your flair for food. It has been the best birthday gift my two girls could have given me and this whole experience has truly inspired me.
Warmest regards, Ruth McWatt
