NICE TO MEET YOU
I'm Tara Walker
After 12 happy years of inviting people to cook with me at East Coast Cookery School, I started to create online courses to connect and share the joy of food with people all over the world during the pandemic.
Together with lots of different people, we discovered that food moments could truly be shared virtually.
I firmly believe that cooking from scratch will bring you joy because not only will you have great tasting food that is healthier you have also created a moment of mindfulness while you chop, mix, saute and simmer.
