Teachers: Kirstie Urquhart is a superb chef who worked for many years with us at Papadeli before setting up as a personal chef.  She is wonderfully inventive and knowledgeable and creates absolutely gorgeous food.

Alexis John – a fabulous teacher and brilliant chef – with experience from many great establishments (including Papadeli!), she went on to run her own catering company before working in menu development and creation.

All chefs are brilliantly knowledgeable and super friendly, so you’ll have a lovely time watching and learning before getting stuck in with some fabulous ingredients. then you get to eat what you’ve made and take lots home to share! Classes are fun and informative and we share the recipes with you to keep and recreate over and over.

“Kirstie and Marcin were so knowledgeable and food was divine. The rest of the team were super friendly, efficient and helpful.  I have just signed up to your mailing list as I am super keen to see what you may have coming up”

The Cookery School

Our cookery school, on the top floor above our deli, is a professional kitchen where our chefs create all the delights in the deli and superb food for catering events during the day – from canapés, buffets,  takeaway dishes, frozen meals and amazing cakes. In the evening, it’s a beautiful and perfect space for learning how to make all these dishes and taste some new flavours. If you ask nicely, Simon might give you a private tour of the deli…

It really is a unique evening.
