We love hosting private group cooking classes here at The Wee Kitchen. Whether you’re planning a Hen or Stag do, organising a work social, or you’re looking for a fun and unique birthday experience in Edinburgh – we’ve got you covered.
A cooking class can be a great way to break the ice with a new group, bring friends or colleagues together, or just something a bit different for a night out.
During your masterclass we’ll cook a sit-down multi dish meal, based on whichever menu you choose. From street food to curries and Japanese bar snacks, you’ll master new techniques and learn a dish to impress with at home.Â
Every cooking class is a hands-on experience, we can tailor the class to be more or less hands on depending on what your group would prefer
Private classes can be totally tailored based on your group’s likes and dislikes. From dietary requirements to ‘I actually can’t stand beetroot’, we can adapt our classes to suit your needs.
This was something completely different for me, learnt new skills, and a really fun way to spend a Saturday morning! Most importantly the food was DELICIOUS.
Wow! This was utterly amazing, the tastes were absolutely wonderful and Ailsa took us through each step in such a patient, easy to follow manner. She is such a star.
Fantastic, really easy all ingredients included, everything weighed out for me, instructions step by step. Ailsa is very friendly and a good instructor.
My partner and I had a great time - Ailsa is such an engaging teacher and the recipes are delicious! Bonus points for supporting a great charity too!
This class is BYOB, so you’re very welcome to bring along drinks to enjoy during the session. We’ll sit down together at the end to enjoy the food we’ve prepared.
