The Thai cookery course was excellent, we produced very authentic tasting dishes that we then sat down to all eat together as a group.

I can't wait to do more courses with Jinny and doing on a Friday felt even more unique. More Fridays would be perfect.

I really enjoy learning new cooking styles and was tempted by the Thai cooking class. It was really easy to book. The class was run by Cooking with Jinny and was a great choice. We had a fabulous time. It was a small class of ten and Jinny was brilliant. She shared her knowledge and experience in a really humorous, friendly but very professional way. The food we made was delicious. The recipes have been emailed to us so we can recreate at home. Jinny had a table set up for us all to eat together which was a great way to chat and get to know each other. A really great evening and definitely a gift I would recommend to others.

  • 5/5 from Steven Fiddy, attended Mar 2025: I had a great time cooking with Jinny. She was really friendly and explained everything very well - even if I missed something or wasn’t sure, she was very approachable and it felt very easy to cook in that class. There were very helpful tips and I can’t wait to try out some of the dishes at home. There was only 8 in the class so you felt very involved with everything. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and hope to be back again for a different class in the future.

I love to cook with others and I love to share my knowledge. For over ten years I sailed around the world working as a high end personal chef on luxury sailing yachts. I have a passion for food and have had the pleasure of travelling to many different countries seeing the assortment of flavours and variations of dishes. This has enabled me to pick up flavour combinations and skills from people around the world.
As a luxury yacht chef, you need to be able to cook a wide variety of food. Pretty much whatever the guests ask for, you need to magically make appear from the galley! I loved this challenge and it enabled me to discover and master a wide variety of cuisines. Wherever we dropped anchor I would hunt for fresh ideas -- the foods at the market, the fellow yacht cheffies, the local chefs and homes. Part of my on-going training has included an intensive course at the Italian Culinary Institute for Foreigners (ICIF) in the Piemonte region of Italy and sushi classes at the Japanese Institute in LA.
I have since settled on land and am now enjoying bringing people together through my fun, interactive cooking classes.
