Alix Gardner's Cookery

Described by the Sunday Tribune as "A good range of carefully structured courses", the lessons are designed to be enjoyable as well as informative and take place in the informal atmosphere of Alix’s family kitchen; we offer, in the words of Marilyn Bright in The Irish Independent "Inspiration, encouragement & know how".
The format of the evening classes is a course of practical cookery classes once a week from 6.30 - 9.00.

The 5 night cookery courses cost €350. The 3 night cookery courses cost €210. The 2 night courses cost €140. You cook for two, take the food home, eat and enjoy it (the food is included in the price of all courses).

No bookings are confirmed without a €75.00 deposit. The balance of the fees are due 7 days before the course starts. Payment by credit card is subject to a 3% booking fee. Please give your address and telephone number with your booking deposit. At the time of booking please advise if you are vegetarian, celiac, allergic to nuts or any other foods, or on a low fat diet.

An attendance certificate is awarded at the end of the course.

Students missing a lesson can send someone else along to replace them.

Bookings will be confirmed when deposits have been received. It might be wise to check availability by telephone first. If we are away from the phone please leave a message as to which course you want to join. On enrolment please give your address and telephone number. You will need to bring apron, tea towels & dishes in which to take the food home. Please use the garden entrance which leads directly into the kitchen. Bank holidays are made up at the end of the course or on an evening convenient for the whole class. After the final lesson certificates are presented and we generally have a small celebration.

The small classes are taught in the informal and intimate atmosphere of a large family kitchen in Ballsbridge, Dublin, which has been specially built to provide seperate cookery workstations. We are renowned for our practical, down-to-earth approach to good food and because the class sizes are kept small they are suitable for everyone from experienced chefs to those who have never cooked. We provide you with the skills you need to translate raw ingredients into delicious dishes.
