If you are looking to tap into your culinary skills in Glasgow there is no shortage of cooking classes that you can take to learn some new tricks and impress your friends when they come round for dinner! Whether you yearn to cook the perfect Indian curry or you want to learn how to make Michelin-star quality Scottish delights, you’ll find a class to suit. Glasgow is a multicultural city with plenty to see and do, but if the rain is putting you off, an indoor cooking class may be the ideal thing.

This innovative cooking school is based in Kilmarnock, Glasgow and offers classes for both adults and children.

There is so much choice and variety in the classes that this school offers, you will certainly be kept busy!
