Event experiences
Event experiences trial out some new ideas and some favourites. They are on set days for you to book on and meet other people.
For a more personalised experience and to look at other experiences available, head over to the private experiences.
When you come to an experience, you won't just be watching me cook and taking notes, you will be hands on and doing everything. The peak of your learning occurs when you actively participate, and at F.Oh.Oh.D, all experiences are based on the principle of creating while comprehending why.
We will not follow a specific recipe for you to take away, you will learn a skill for you to remember and adapt.
Each experience; although has an outline, can adapt to what you need.
You will make and learn so that when you go away, you know how to do it again with confidence.
There are usually 4 spaces available on each experience and includes
- 3.5 hours of hands on learning/cooking (2.5 hours evening)
- A Drink on arrival, including freshly ground coffee, a choice of teas or cold drinks*
- All your ingredients and equipment, including apron
- A small handmade snack from F.Oh.Oh.D
- Fresh olives
- Your lunch/supper**
- A certificate of your achievement
- Full summary of your learning
* Non alcoholic drinks only
**This will be the food that we create, sometimes additional items will be added to supplement smaller makes.
Please note:
- Unbooked events dates are subject to change or removal.
- Private experience bookings will take precedent over unbooked events.
All experiences take place at my home where you will have everything you need to create and learn. For experiences in your home, please look at the private experiences.
