Whether it is French pastries, her favourite is Croissants or our popular Rustic Italian you will enjoy Ellie’s classes and as a judge, for the Kansas City BBQ Society, her Hard-Core Carnivore Masterclass is not to be missed!

07.01.2022 Are you ready to be the Masterchef in your kitchen for 2021? Join Chef Mel and her new group of apprentice Chefs in her 6-week Chef Skills course and learn to live 'happily ever after' in the kitchen! https://vanillazulu.rezdy.com//chef-skills-course-six-weeks... Don't just take our word for it - here's what Meg from our last class had to say - Seriously the best thing I've done in years. I did the 6-week culinary skills course and it far exceeded my expectations. Chef Mel was utterly divine, her sense of humour is exquisite, she had us roaring with laughter every class. I actually woke up on Monday mornings excited about the prospect of going to her class that evening. Her knowledge and skills were amazing and the school itself was clean, hygienic, well-stocked and welcoming. I would highly recommend this cooking school to anyone, I can't believe i can knock up pastry and ciabatta, or throw a dinner party of Italian delights. I used to think i was such an average cook but now I'm so happy to cook for friends and family. I loved the deserts and the Pork belly night, and the Fish and lamb nights were extraordinary!!!! My family are so impressed with my new skills in the kitchen and I now absolutely love spending time preparing foods that I previously thought were just too hard.

03.01.2022 Happy Fathers Day to all the wonderful dads, step dads and other special guys! This is what my special guy requested for his special meal! Mysterious Moroccan Lamb Shoulder with my famous ras el hanout Culinary Spray Tan...was super easy too! I added some water to about 2 tablespoons of the sexy ras el hanout, brushed it on, seasoned with salt (because seasoning shows you care) added about a litre of weak chicken stock with the excess spice dissolved into it and voila! Read...y for the oven, 160c for three hours and then will crank up to 220c to render up that gorgeous fat.
