Testimonials
Hi Samone,I just wanted to say a big thank you for your hospitality and for the amazing cookery course today. Leon was so proud of the food he produced with you and it was the best fresh pasta & meatballs I've ever had! He is so excited about recreating this dish, and has been reading the recipe to everyone, and explaining how he made it with you. It has been the highlight of his holidays and you have increased his interest in food!Many Thanks.Rachel French / Kids Cooking Class
Hi Samone,Just want to say a huge thank you for looking after me and my workmates. We really enjoyed the cooking experience. Absolutely loved the menu (fresh rolls, satay, dumplings and fish cakes) all of my favs. The print out recipes are pretty easy to follow. I still use it and shared them with friends.It was a very relaxing class, everyone had a turn doing and learning something new. Great open space. Lovely country feel.I would recommend this as a good team building session. With great food and a glass of wine – you can’t go wrong.Petrina Han
Dear Samone,We have been attending Samone’s events for a few years now and they are always amazing; they are delicious and fun. Samone has also organised a few events for us, in-house and out, business and personal, and she is always such a perfectionist and the food is to die for regardless of the cuisine she chooses for the occasion. Her and hubby Chris are wonderful hosts, you always feel at home. If you would like a taste of what fancy country life looks and feels like, we highly recommend you visit her beautiful home at her next event, I assure you, you won’t regret it. We cannot wait for their wines to be served accompanying her food, the vineyard is looking amazing, so it won’t be long.James & Andrea
