Cooking Classes on Witta Maleny Sunshine Coast

About this tour

Learn to cook in a private garden setting on the Sunshine Coast hinterland. Over four hours at Cooking On Witta, you'll work with Chef Kim—a culinary veteran—to master techniques for restaurant-quality meals at home. The kitchen garden supplies citrus and vegetables picked that morning, alongside locally sourced ingredients. Small groups mean real attention to technique and genuine conversation with other cooks. Walk away with recipes and the confidence to recreate what you've learned for family and friends.

What to expect

You'll arrive at a private garden property in Witta and spend the morning chopping, cooking, and tasting alongside five to eight other people. Chef Kim guides you through the fundamentals—knife skills, timing, flavour-building—without the fuss or theatre of a demonstration class. You're cooking actual food, not watching. Lunch is what you've made. The pace is unhurried; there's time to ask questions and understand the 'why' behind each step. By the end, you'll have a working knowledge of the dishes prepared and a booklet to refer to at home. It's practical rather than precious.
