This isn't just another cooking class; it's a culinary adventure on the water. You'll learn how to make crispy, golden churros and decadent chocolate sauce while cosying up on a beautiful houseboat. Imagine dipping warm churros into rich chocolate, all while enjoying stunning views of the city. It's a truly memorable experience! Why you'll love it: Combining delicious food with a unique setting is a recipe for success. You get to learn a new skill, enjoy a tasty treat, and soak in London's iconic sights from a different perspective.
