Nice and spacious, well organised kitchen.

All ingredients and utensils of good quality and ready to go.
Big screen available to watch the teacher cook from your table.
The dishes we made were delicious.
The teacher came around to answer questions, check on progress and taste the dish to see if any further seasoning was needed.
Only thing lacking that might have been nice was some more explanations about the ingredients being used, best places to buy them, how to store them or substitutes if you struggle to find them.
Overall a really enjoyable night and I would definitely come back, thanks!

The class was really great! So many useful cooking skills were learnt by my partner and myself, and we were in awe of what our teaching chef had to offer. We're looking forward to doing more classes from other cuisines in the future by Otao Kitchen! Thanks so much for this wonderful experience!
