A great way to enjoy a cookery school or class is to buy an extra ticket and take a friend – OR get a group together and use it as a celebration of a birthday, an anniversary - or just friendship! Invest in tasteful gifts for yourself and those who (you'd like to) cook for you. These are gifts that pay dividends - your loved ones learn great cooking skills that last them a lifetime, and you'll eat better for it!

'Why not make it a family activity?' says chef-teacher, Victor Pisapia, who some may remember from his time a few years ago at Rattlesnake Grill, in Sydney's north. 'Or buy enough to celebrate a special occasion with friends,' he adds. 'Or stock up yourself for the year!' 

Explore a world of flavour in Victor's new line-up of international cooking classes, while taking in the stunning view, then enjoying a relaxing meal with new found friends over a glass of wine and a superb meal.

Coming up soon, there are hands-on classes in a world of cuisines: Mexican, Lebanese, Malaysian, Moroccan and South American as well as one that demystifies paella, and another that will set you on the way to mastering bistro dishes.

What's more, they are fun, and work well as team-building events too.

If you want even more, there are regular local and overseas tours.
