  • Overview

    Join us this school holiday as we embark on a culinary adventure. Together, we will emulate the thrill and rush of a busy kitchen with vibrant colours, tastes and smells as if you were a contestant itself on Master Chef.

    In this program, you’ll learn how to prepare and cook a wide variety of different dishes, each day, focusing on an entirely different cuisine. Our expert chef will guide our guests (10 years+) to prepare various menus over the duration of this course. We’ll learn about knife skills, food safety, how to prepare and cook vegetables, meats, and seafood and mains. 

    The course focuses on understanding food through local ingredients and a global perspective. Participants learn about the seasonality and origin of common foods. We will also explore contemporary issues relating to food justice, food wastage, and sustainability. Students will learn how to make healthy food choices as well as learn how to make a budget. Students may participate in a single class or the full 4 day-workshop throughout the duration of the week.

    We've used Otao Kitchen for two work social events now - one making dumplings and the other a Vietnamese cooking class, and both were excellent. Great fun, high energy, inclusive, an the food that resulted was delicious.

    My husband and I attended the Japanese cooking masterclass and it did not disappoint! It was interactive, educational and above all else fun! They were able to accommodate dietary requirements without any fuss and made sure we were taken care of without feeling left out. The food was delicious and would Definetly recommend to anyone wanting to try something new and learn to cook while having fun. Thank you Ha & team!

    Otao kitchen was a present I got for my partner and what a great night. A great variety and selection of cuisines to learn and try and well priced. We did the Vietnamese class and it lasted a good 3 hours. The chef was easy to follow, friendly and helpful. Ingredients were quality and the menu was amazing. We didn't leave hungry, had a good time and a good selection of drinks on offer too. Then even cater for intolerances. Recommended q visit here or three

    Once you have done one class, you are going to want to go back and do more. The instructors are lovely and you are in a no pressure environment. Everyone is different so if you finish early thats great, if it's later then that's okay too. The food you will make is not only pretty but damn tasty. Better yet, something you will want to go back again and make. So this isn't a one time deal, you will want to take what you have learned and show it off to your friends at a dinner party or make your family think you deserve a Michelin Star because your tastebuds are bedazzled. Seriously do yourself a favour and book a class. It's truly worth it.
