"Hi Toni and Robert,
Thank you both so much for a really wonderful day of cooking, company, learning and (mmm) eating. I received a Red Balloon voucher for your classes from my husband for my 60th birthday (last October), and the whole experience really was a wonderful addition to all sorts of other marvellous birthday things that happened and continue to happen.
First of all, your home and the surroundings are just beautiful - thank you for sharing them. And the cooking class was so enjoyable and enlightening and useful!. We did and saw others do so many things, had things like zucchini flowers demystified (crumbing is genius), the food was just grand (and will be replicated), and most of all your hospitality and skill in teaching us cheerfully, pleasantly and effectively, were outstanding.
Your facilities, the organisation, your planning of a great menu and the hands-on practicality (without things being nerve-wracking) showed both your love of and expertise with food, and your understanding and experience in practical teaching.
Ricotta (making some tonight!), grilling eggplant (and I guess other vegies) on the sandwich toaster, adding cinnamon to tomatoes will certainly be permanent additions to my cooking. And who can ask for more than that? And I think pasta too - already checking Marcato machines at Peters of Kensington.
Alice (from Canberra, a daughter of a long-standing (old?) friend and a friend in her own right, and I had a wonderful adventure. And we'll be talking about it for ages. I'll definitely be recommending you, spreading the word, and returning.
Thank you both so much, it was just outstanding. Good luck for future success too.

"I just wanted to follow up with a more formal thank you for the tour we had on the weekend.
I think it was really well done, everyone was so welcoming, most of all yourselves!
Kangaroo Valley is so beautiful and it was lovely being driven around learning a bit more about the different home industries, and of course, being able to try everything.
I hope your business really takes off as it’s a wonderful idea and you do it very well!"

"Just wanted to thank you and Rob on behalf of our group for a great day last Saturday. We all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and agreed that it was the best tour we’ve done on our many weekends away. It was a fabulous way to see and experience “the Valley”. We are happily eating our way through all our purchases :)"

"We just wanted to thank you for such a lovely time on Saturday. We really appreciate the effort you went to and it made it such a special day for us. Not only was the food and wine great to taste, but we thoroughly enjoyed meeting the delightful producers, hearing their stories and gaining a better understanding on how they make their produce.
We had a fabulous break, and we will be recommending your trail to all our friends. Look forward to seeing you for a cooking class too."

"Toni and Rob, Thank you for a lovely day. Your friendliness and professionlism did not make this tour feel as though it was just a bus trip but a very enjoyable day out with a nice group of people. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and will be recommending this tour. Also thank you to the producers. Their products are great. Everyone was so lovely. Thoroughly enjoyed the day and hope to do another one in the near future. Cheers Ruth"

""On sunday myself and a mini bus of friends had the most wonderful afternoon, eating ,making pasta, laughing and enjoying the company of Toni and Robert in their beautiful sanctuary..highly recommend it ! A lovely way to spend a Sunday - thanks guys :)""
Julie
""Had a fantastic day, small classes so you get to enjoy a hands-on experience. I'm a fanatical cook and have four favourite lemon cake recipes - but the one we did with Toni was the best ever. The website really underplays the classes - we did four wonderful Italian desserts in 2 hours, far more than we expected. And the setting is wonderful, the view is just amazing. The icing on the cake, one might say :-).""
