"Days like this don't come around often - delicacies appearing throughout the day . . . porc tartare - mindblowing brie - local beers - arancello. We've tried a few tastings these last few years and the day we were making sausages turned out the best of all. Alex has taught more amusing connotations of sausages than I could ever have thought up and left us with kilos of of the output to take home. Thanks for giving my Pa a great birthday." Doug. (20th November 2011)

"Alex, you are a natural teacher - full of passion that you want to pass onto others - with a real love of what you do. We've had such a good day starting with a cracking breakfast and you took us at our own pace. Well done to you both. We've had a hands-on day and will head South full of enthusiasm with some new skills to apply. Until next time . . . " Nick (20th November 2011)

"Chris came back a very happy man, really fired up by sausage making!  Thank you for delivering a wonderful Christmas present for me, one none of us will ever forget and we have the added bonus of all the wonderful eating to come! Now I just need to make the sourdough to accompany the splendid sausages!" Helen, January 2011

"Alex came to my home to teach Dave and I the art of ARTISAN sausage making. It was one of the most interesting and informative days I have ever spent. Dave has not stopped calling me about different recipes and ideas. Alex cooked us breakfast and lunch which was sublime. I can only recommend this course to any one who wishes to develop their skills in the art of making "real" sausages. Alex is a very knowledgeable man with a wealth of knowledge, and an easy teaching style" Mark, October 2011



"Thanks for the excellent artisan bread making course. I had an excellent day and learnt so much. The course content was excellent and lunch was amazing. I would recommend this course to anyone interested in learning how to bake bread at home" James, September 2011
