Key positive

Opportunity to learn to prepare new dishes

Friendly chefs and small groups

Key negative

Location is a little out of the way

Suitability

Unclear if the kitchen is accessible for wheelchair user but we presume there is a lift in the building. Best to check with Management. Not the best cooking class for vegetarians...
