Smileys cooking school highly recommended
Was amazing…English explanations easy to understand and going to the market before we started to cook gave us all a solid explanation of all the ingredients. We had a fantastic time and our chef had a great sense of humour and he certainly added to the entire evening being fun and the best money spent on a really wonderful experience. Thank you we will be back!
