3 hours Class size 1 to 8 guests     £115
In this London cooking class, you will learn how to prepare authentic dishes inspired by Lebanese and Middle Eastern cuisine. Under the guidance of expert chefs, you will create a mouthwatering mosaic by fusing saffron and rosewater, ground cardamom, cinnamon, and figs into a taste sensation.
The enchanting flavours of Lebanon and the Middle East often remain elusive. This cooking class is here to help you unveil the secrets. Come and explore the delicate flavours, traditional spice blends and extraordinary dishes from Syria, Lebanon, and the vibrant North African countries of the Maghreb.
Prepare to embark on a culinary journey that diverges from the typical offerings of many high-street Middle Eastern restaurants. You will also uncover cooking techniques for a mezze concept of eating that reflects the lifestyle deeply rooted in Middle Eastern communities and how they differ from plated meals.

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.
