The trainers Wendy and Nicki were incredible. Very friendly and knowledgeable, and the food that was provided was incredible.
Left rolling out the building and will most definitely be doing more of these classes!

— Claire

Wendy managed the 6 groups with ease. She was aware of what was happening, and managed to ‘be there’ every time we needed help. She made a very positive contribution to the activities.

— Ron

Tonight we had a great time learning about duck. Karol was terrific, her knowledge of Luv-a-duck and cooking was fabulous. I loved all the various dishes we made and the hands on experience of this class (her roast duck was exquisite) and all the recipes we made and tasted were spot on. I keep dreaming of the sliders and those mouth watering Thai duck cakes. I cant wait to come back and do another class, next time I am going to bring some friends, its a truly wonderful experience.

— Kellie

Luv A Duck is fantastic. This is the 4th or 5th class I have done with them. Knowledgeable instructors. Super helpful assistants. Quality food. Easy to follow instructions. Modern facilities. Fantastic way to spend a chunk of your day!

— Lee

Had a great morning learning about how versatile duck can be cooked and how far it can go recipes were easy to follow and the food and and atmosphere were wonderful will come back again was great to be able to go out and enjoy what we love doing cooking and eating !! DQ

— Denise

There was so much to learn on the evening. I think the best was being taught how to roast a duck correctly for the best crisp skin. The whole evening was better than we expected, Wendy is a great ambassador for Luv a Duck she is so happy to help and share her knowledge. Everyone got on well and the banquet at the end of the class was 10 out of 10. I will certainly being some more classes.

— Sandra

My two friends and I had a great time at our cooking class. We learnt to cook some great finger food and also picked up a lot of good tips for cooking duck. The food was excellent, the kitchen set up really good and we had a ball. We’ll definitely be back for more.

— Anne

This was a fantastic experience! It was a really hands on class led by a friendly and knowledgeable cook. Highly recommend!

— Ally

Thanks for a fantastic cooking class. We learnt really useful skills and some excellent recipes.

— Bridet

A really informative night with plenty of yummy food and great staff. Would definitely do it again !!!!

— Leanne

What an experience! So much fun and being hands on, we learned heaps about all sorts of duck finger food dishes from the friendly and more than capable staff of Wendy, Rhonda and Carole who were so efficient. So good that we have booked a group of eight for their Asian cooking class. I couldn’ recommend the experience more highly as it was certainly much greater than the money paid.

— Debbie

Karol is awesome. This was my second luvaduck cooking class, both have been fantastic, will definitely consider a third.

— Nadia

Excellent experience and we learned some incredible and yet easy dishes. Got to try every dish and were absolutely full afterwards.
The two ladies karol and nikki were so knowledgeable but also so good at creating a friendly learning environment that helped the whole group gel within minutes!

— Anthony

Excellent class, lots of fun, lots of food and even booze! Would definitely recommend.

— Katharine

We felt the class was so hands on. Was very enjoyable. Loved tasting what we all made. Would highly recommend anyone wanting to do course.

— Phil

I did a Google review. Please refer to that.

— E

My second (and not my last) class here with Wendy instructing. A very well designed and clean kitchen. Very well organised and great support from the team. You learn so much else other than the large number of recipes. Really excellent value.

— Iain

Highly enjoyable class, great teachers, super tasty recipes, abundant food and great insight into a proud and successful company. Anyone who loves duck will have fun at these classes. My regret is not clearing my fridge before the class so I could take full advantage of the 10% discount in the shop after the class.

— Jill

What a great morning! Sociable learning environment with easy to learn recipes.Lots of thought gone into this class,with the teachers ready to help.Would highly recommend— this was my third class ( after a couple of years break)very enjoyable eating the food too!
