Four weeks, four recipes, four unique experiences

Home cooking doesn’t have to be hard work, especially if you learn how to chop, cook and serve like a master chef.

Sign up to one of Folly’s new summer cooking classes, stock up on ingredients from Choithrams.com and kiss any hosting anxiety goodbye . It doesn’t matter if you’re a first-timer or a culinary connoisseur, the classes, which take place weekly throughout July, cater to all tastes and abilities.

Launching on Tuesday 5th July with their fish fresh from the sea, the two-hour session includes time with the chef learning the tricks of the trade, culminating with a sit down and opportunity to enjoy your lovingly prepared three course lunch. And if that’s not enough, there’s free flowing grape served too.

The masterclass, taught by Folly's award-winning chefs, can accommodate up to eight people in total, ensuring everyone gets one-on-one time with the team of talented chefs. Gift bags will also be handed over to guests after the class which include a branded apron, spoon, notebook, pen and recipe cards.

The weekly schedule is as follows. So get cooking, pick up some tips and then stock up at Choithrams.com and recreate the magic at home.
