‘Kate and I enjoyed Saturday so much I wanted to let you know and also to say thank you.

The food we prepared was delicious, the ambiance extremely pleasant and the skills and techniques learned very much appreciated. I think I can now quite confidently make dough and pasta. As I say to our children, it is never too late to learn. Many thanks again – Helen Mann’. Italianicious – Cooking with Passion.

‘Thank you for the information sheets you have sent through and thank you for a wonderful day. I made the almond tart the very next day for a friend. I loved that, one of my favourites from the day. Although I also have to add the focaccia, pesto and zucchini appetizers. All beautiful! Kind Regards Amy Gunzberg’. Italianicious – Cooking with Passion.

Thank you Tonya for the photos and the newsletter. I had such a fantastic day cooking with you – I am hoping my sisters get me another gift voucher for my birthday:) Regards, Annalise Kempton.’ Italianicious – Cooking with Passion.

‘I just finished reading your great newsletter & found myself in a class photo! I thoroughly enjoyed my cooking day last month & plan to take some more classes… I have been thinking about your tips on preserved lemons you gave me at the class, as I threw a couple of juiced lemons out the other day & thought I should have started up a jar, now your email has the recipe which is just what I needed, thank you, I’ll have a go.
Looking at your calendar I’m trying to decide what to do next. You have a wonderful friendly way with your classes which makes everyone feel very relaxed – in March I left feeling a little sorry that we wouldn’t all be getting together again after sharing your kitchen & having such a lovely lunch.
Thanks again…Robyn Rowe.’ Italianicious – Cooking with Passion

‘Thank you Tonya I heard my iPad pinging and wondered what was happening. I have been very busy stocking up my spices and have already made the almond tart, vegetable dish, yoghurt pannacotta, my version of the cranberry jelly, focaccia and bessara. I thoroughly enjoyed my time cooking with you(never gone to sleep on the couch but I did that afternoon) and look forward to my next cooking session. Veronica.’ Mediterranean – Touch of Spice.

Thanks for an enjoyable day on Saturday. I have already successfully made the ice cream, gougeres and the biscotti is in the oven as I type. So if one of your measures of success is how many recipes are reproduced after the class by the participants you are doing well! Thanks again, Alanna.’ Taste of Melbourne – Modern Australian Cuisine.

‘My family really enjoyed the Moroccan tagine, with almond couscous and bessara. Simone, my daughter who gave me the present was very impressed with her old man, being able to cook such a meal. Thanks again for the wonderful day. Malcolm Hill.’ Mediterranean – Touch of Spice.
