7.5 hours Class size 2 to 8 guests     £197
This London cooking class is a true melting pot of flavours and cuisines! Learn to cook vibrant dishes that combine African, French, Chinese and Indian ingredients and flavours to craft a truly unique and mouthwatering experience.
Mauritius is the birthplace of this incredible emulsion of cultures. With a French colony in the 18th century, the arrival of Chinese immigrants in the late 19th century plus the Indian community that lived and worked there also in the 19th century, this deeply layered gastronomy and unique fusion developed over time as each culture added its own cooking techniques and ingredients.
Join the London Vegetarian and Vegan School and celebrate the very best of flavours, blending them with the refined techniques of French culinary disciplines that still shine today. Guided by friendly teachers you will make seven to ten tantalising recipes.
You'll cover traditional dishes like rougaille and vindaye, while also exploring innovative creations inspired by the island's renowned five-star restaurants, such as spiced tapenade and coconut risotto.

London Vegetarian and Vegan School extends well beyond an average cookery school; it is in effect a lifestyle centre. The concept originated in the Alte Forsthaus in Frankfurt which moved to Hampstead in 1989 followed by London Bridge to the current location; the artist’s quarter in Forest Hill.
Veganism has changed over the last few years and we have introduced a greater number of vegan cooking workshops in our programme. We avoid introducing highly processed manufactured vegan ingredients but instead prefer to create our very own – eggs being a good example.
This collage of information is to demystify the art of cooking and sometimes it means going back to basics in order to get a thorough grounding and understanding of cooking essentials which so often this level of information and detail one cannot find nor read in glossy magazines. Most important to qualify all the above is personal attention to individuals and hands on experience so one gets the opportunity to try out different knives and associated skills, types of professional pans and their applications and in this process instill both confidence and kitchen management making cooking experience days more enjoyable.
For us the cookery classes in London we offer are just one element; how you deliver, present, organise a dinner party, set the environment which includes lighting, music and colours are all important which we coach our students on our profi week long courses.
The school has a special place in London Society and the cuisine school’s patrons are members of the former German monarchy.
