Getting Cooking Classes Right

Hands-on cooking in Highfields & the North comes from Tara Downs Cooking School, which works out of farmland in the Murphys Creek locality instead of a town kitchen. That shapes the experience: small groups, produce gathered from the gardens, and a teacher who cooks from family recipes.

What to weigh up before booking a class out at Murphys Creek:

The cuisine is Indian and Asian, so it suits groups keen on spice and curry rather than general cooking.
Three regular classes cover beginners, vegetarian dishes and an advanced level of traditional cooking.
Anyone marking a birthday or bringing a work team can book a private session, which Sandra builds around cook-offs.
Classes are kept small, so a large group should ask how sessions are split.
Pricing begins From $190 per person.

Veggie beds, chickens and a beehive share the property, and the class can harvest from them before cooking.
Sandra explains the origins of each dish and its ingredients, so the class has a food-culture element.
The school lists its classes as indoor, so ask whether the garden part of the day changes in wet weather.
For a group outing, plan transport out to the property and back.
