The perfect foodie gift: Fun culinary classes.

Something I think many of us have in common is that we’d love to improve our cooking skills, knowledge and techniques. How wonderful  it would be to be able to serve new and exciting dishes to our families and guests.

The classes provided by Sur la Table are run by expert chefs and take place in many locations. There are lots of themes too.  Choose from seasonal courses, baking, the cuisines of other countries, family favourites, lighter cooking — and many more.

You can see some of the current courses offered in the photographs below.

The classes, which are taken in small groups, usually run for about two to three hours and you’ll learn how to make three or four fabulous dishes. The ingredients and cooking utensils are all provided – all you have to do is turn up, learn and enjoy. Scroll down for a quick video – doesn’t that look like fun?

The classes are easy to order online and if you’re buying a class for a friend you can order attractive gift cards. That way, your recipient can choose which class they’d like to attend and when.

If for some reason they are unable to attend a class, they can spend the gift card choosing from the fabulous cookware and gourmet foods at the website. What a flexible and fun gift.
