Just a quick update on the new addition to our premises, the new kitchen has had all the internal walls removed to make space for the new layout, we have a meeting with the builder tonight to discuss the new opening in the wall and we start put put the new fixtures in at the weekend.
All very exciting and we are looking forward to being to expand our services. More news and some photo’s to follow soon.
We are expanding again … we are moving into an adjoining building to allow us to expand the services we offer, cater for larger groups and classes and also start to offer celebrity cookery demo’s and full dining experiences.
Early days and we have a lot of building work to do, the main kitchen will remain operation throughout and we will bring you further news as we get it.

We may not have won, but the day was great fun!
We would like to say a huge thanks to the guys at Thermomix and to the celebrity chefs led by James Knight-Pacheco for a wonderful meal and entertainment last night.
James designed and served up a wonderful 8 course meal, assisted by Celebrity Masterchef winner Lisa Faulkner and 2010 Masterchef winner Dhruv Baker.
They were lovely people and we hope we can all meet and speak about future collaborations again soon.
P.S Good luck with your new venture James

Thanks to all those that came along to our very first Italian Food & Wine evening yesterday. We had a great time and we hope you enjoyed the tasty food and sampling all the wines.
We have some more date planned soon so watch out for more details soon.
Here at Pudding Pie we don’t have a lot of kitchen gadgets, as we believe it’s better to learn with equipment you will find in your own home. However, after visiting Alain & Michel Roux Jr in the kitchen at the Waterside Inn recently, we were so impressed by one piece of kit, we just had to have one.
A Thermomix TM31, it’s like a food processor on steroids! It grinds, whisks, weighs, cooks, steams, blends, crushes, kneads, grates we could go on and on.
What a piece of equipment, we wont be using it for everyday classes, but for our catering jobs, it will be invaluable.
Pudding Pie Cookery School, using the best ingredients in the best equipment.
