Overview
Get creative in this hands-on cooking adventure designed for children!
In this interactive workshop, participants will learn about the Food Rainbow and discover new herbs and spices, sparking curiosity about where food comes from, what makes it yummy, and how even little hands can make something tasty!
Led by professional chef Luisa Scrimshaw, this workshop will have Little Chefs rolling up their sleeves to make something delicious for their lunchbox while exploring new flavours, textures, and smells along the way.
With a mix of learning, tasting, and creating, this workshop has the perfect recipe for fun and food-loving curiosity. Let’s get cooking and travel the world - one lunchbox at a time!
Suited for all dietary requirements.
