Cookery Classes in East Midlands

I bought this experience for our son's 40th birthday and his Dad to enjoy together. They had the best day haven't stopped talking about it ?? They both said what a great bloke Nigel is, so easy to get on with and great at explaining everything. They came home with Chicken Chassaur, veg, Sticky Toffee pudding and a Pumpkin pie with it being Halloween weekend. Would highly recommend this experience.

Friendly people coffee on arrival I enjoyed seeing coffee beans changed colour and tasting coffee

Living in the country, I often get offered game for my kitchen, and whilst I like to think of myself as a fairly competent cook, I had never tackled the feathered and furry. A day at The Nigel Brown Cookery Academy soon put that right. A well constructed day course took me from plucking and drawing game birds, through a delicious rabbit pie lunch and on through the afternoon to terrines and butchery. The venue is great, and the school provides everything you will need for the day including a warm welcome and relaxed atmosphere. As you giggle your way through the gutting you'll wonder why you haven't done this before, and as my husband tucked into a pigeon-stuffed pheasant breast for supper, he was thinking the same!

Great tea knowledge and friendly staff, ideal location and exceptional flavours to taste! This session did not disappoint as any tea lover will know, you get to try a huge variety of tea blends and be told a variety of ways to Taylor your teas to make the ideal brew from hot to cold , baked or cooked , in cocktails mocktails and all the in between. The history of bird & blend was incredible and inspiring and glad to see other tea lovers spreading happiness around the stores. I would recommend this experience for anyone with a huge interest in tea and mixology as you are able to make your own tea blends at the end!

Really interesting walk with Aaron learning how to identify edible and very poisonous plants on the marsh in north Norfolk. Totally recommend.

Brocklebys where great. Easy to contact ( unlike buyagift) and made sure I was given a lower table to work on. The evening was great fun and our pies where amongst the best there (though we are both hands on arty people :-)

The host was great at explaining everything and very informative. Learnt a lot about coffee on the day and had a great time tasting and creating our own coffee blend.
