Getting Cooking Classes Right

Rosebery's converted warehouses house a good share of the inner south's food and design businesses, and two of them are cooking schools that take groups. VIVE Cooking School, in The Cannery on Mentmore Avenue, runs three-hour chef-led classes across more than 30 cuisines in a large teaching kitchen. Omnom Cooking School, on Botany Road, is a cheese making school where groups stretch burrata and bocconcini or roll pasta over about two hours, usually with a drink in hand. One suits a work team wanting a full cooking project, and the other suits a hens party or birthday after something lighter and more social.

Comparing the two for your group:

Getting there: buses serve Rosebery and street parking is easier than in the city. VIVE puts the trip at about 15 minutes from the CBD and Sydney Airport.
The experience: at VIVE a chef demonstrates each dish and you cook it at a shared station before everyone eats together. At Omnom you get a demonstration, a little cheese science and plenty of hands-on work.
Group size: VIVE's private events suit 2 to 30+ guests, and Omnom's burrata class can take up to 26, with groups of more than 8 pointed towards a private class.
Booking lead time: give either school your dietary requirements when you book. Omnom takes a $50 deposit to lock in a private date.
Food and drinks: VIVE is fully licensed with no BYO. Omnom's classes include bubbles or a drink on arrival, and its midweek class is BYO wine with $8 corkage.

Prices differ a fair bit. Omnom starts from $69 per person midweek, with its bottomless bubbles burrata class from $89 per person on weekdays and $109 on weekends. VIVE's public classes run $160 to $220 per person, and corporate events start from $190 plus GST per person, with the chef, assistant, ingredients, aprons, set-up and clean-up all handled. At VIVE you finish with a shared meal, and Omnom's burrata class sends you home with almost 1kg of fresh cheese.

More than 30 classes rotate, including pasta making, ramen, dumplings, Thai street food, Mexican, French regional cooking, macarons and bread baking.
Private groups choose a menu and work in teams of two to four per station.
Adult classes are for ages 16 and over, and some classes, such as pasta making, are not suitable for coeliacs.
Wear closed-toe shoes for three hours on your feet, and bring takeaway containers for leftovers.

Omnom Cooking School

Bubbles, Burrata and Bocconcini is the signature class, and a Halloumi class with bottomless bubbles is $99 per person.
Pasta classes such as Pinot and Pasta finish with a sit-down meal of what you made, from $99 to $109 per person.
Bring a 1 to 2 litre container per person to carry your cheese or pasta home.
The ground-floor studio has an accessible entrance and bathroom, and a gluten-free pasta alternative can be arranged for a $10 fee.

Answers to Common Cooking Class Questions

Which Rosebery cooking class suits a hens party?

Omnom Cooking School's Bubbles, Burrata and Bocconcini class is built for it, with bottomless bubbles and up to 26 guests in a private class. VIVE Cooking School suits a hens group that would rather cook a full menu over three hours and sit down to eat it together.

How long do cooking classes in Rosebery take?

Classes at VIVE Cooking School run for three hours, including the demonstration, cooking and a shared meal. Omnom Cooking School's classes usually take about two hours.

Can we bring our own wine?

Not at VIVE Cooking School, which is fully licensed and does not allow BYO. At Omnom Cooking School, the midweek burrata and bocconcini class is BYO wine with $8 corkage, while other classes include bubbles or a drink on arrival.

Are the classes suitable for teenagers?

VIVE Cooking School's adult classes are for ages 16 and over. Omnom Cooking School recommends its classes for ages 10 and up, and under-18s must attend with an adult.
