We’re excited to launch our very first hands-on cooking classes!

Learn to cook like a chef with David & Sam — two colonial cousins passionate about great food, simple techniques, and sharing what they know.

It all started with Sam making butter from scratch… and David saying, “Why don’t we teach this?”
So here we are — ready to share a few skills that might just make your neighbours jealous

Join us, learn a few tricks, and take home skills that last a lifetime.

Chef David — a London-born career chef with over six four decades of experience (though not quite from the day he was born, as he insists we clarify), all carried behind a big, welcoming smile. Passionate about great food, and even more passionate about sharing his knowledge.

He believes mother nature is the greatest provider, and that truly good food comes from care, respect, and attention, in David’s word TLC. Treat your ingredients well, and they will always give you their best.

Sam — Calcutta-born passionate cook, whose midlife pivot from corporate life to hospitality was driven by a simple realisation: less money, but far more happiness.

Deeply fascinated by both cooking and food history, Sam is entirely self-taught and believes that cooking is both a science and an art — brought together by the power of taste and best enjoyed through all five senses.

His inspiration comes from his mother, along with culinary greats such as Fernand Point, Albert Roux, Marco Pierre White, Antonio Carluccio, Gennaro Contaldo, Thomas Keller — though he jokes it feels almost sacrilegious to mention all those names in one breath.
