Mediterranean Cooking Classes @ Desert Springs

Desert Springs' own Executive Chef, Steve “El Pegg”, holds Mediterranean Cooking Classes at The Crocodile Club by appointment. It really is essential to book in advance, and different times are available to suit you (and our busy Chef). Below appears a testimonial from one of our Residents, who received a Cooking Class as a birthday gift for her and her friends. After the ladies had learnt to make a wonderful Lobster Risotto, they and their guests ate their creation!

Hi Kristina,
Firstly thank you for forwarding the photos of our cookery demo. We had a brilliant morning, Steve Pegg is a good teacher, and the food was delicious. I've done cookery demos at Raymond Blanc's Le Manoir aux Quatre Saisons, and at Loch Lomond Golf Club, and this one was every bit as good…
 
Kind regards,  Brenda Clark- Whittle

Social, Cultural & Other Events Calendar

NB It is difficult to obtain precise dates of events more than six months ahead, so we have left the previous six or so month's details in the calendar. You can therefore see more or less what is going throughout the year, even if the precise dates or programs are not yet known. So please be careful, the precise dates may vary in the year ahead. For accurate dates of Desert Springs Golf events throughout the year, please see here.
