Kooklessen Goolwa

What a wonderful day! Four of us from Adelaide took the scenic route to Goolwa where we were welcomed by the amazing Anita, full of energy and exuberance and so much knowledge, and her quiet assistant Marianne. Wine from Kimbolton, a local regional winery, and nibbles made us feel especially welcome. Two other locals met us there, making a total of only 6 people - a perfect size for individual attention and plenty of room to see the demonstrations up close. Pastry-making has always been something of a chore to me but, much to my surprise, Anita not only made it LOOK simple but she proved that we could do it too! Indeed, I have since put into practice what we learned and am loving creating my own pastries. Lunch was a delicious spread of our own creations, enhanced by Anita’s ‘cheffy’ presentation, and accompanied by more wines and other drinks. Thanks to Marianne, no dishes to wash! Just enjoy! Anita was so generous with her time and in sharing her skills. Her passion for good food, created at home, is inspirational. I can’t wait for my next class! L

Anita’s Vegetarian Cooking Experience workshop was fabulous! Anita presents everything so beautifully and explains each step so well. I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and look forward to another one!

I am a keen home cook and am confident with a wide range of cuisines. However, I have always felt intimidated by yeast and have stayed away from making my own bread. After attending Anita's bread making class, I finally feel comfortable making my own bread, which is something I have wanted to do for a long time. Not only did we make several styles of bread, Anita even provided us with our own sourdough starter. I strongly recommend Anita's classes. The location was excellent, and we had a lovely lunch as part of the experience.
