Forget Mother's Day Lunch and Book a Cooking Class Together

Forget Mother's Day Lunch and Book a Cooking Class Together


By Annie Symmonds

Most people celebrate Mother’s Day with a card, flowers, and of course, a classic Mother’s Day lunch. Why break out of the mould and try something new in 2024! Book a gift experience for Mum that the whole family can take part in – a Mother’s Day cooking class! While Mum will be sure to appreciate any efforts to spoil her, there's nothing she'll love more than spending some quality time with you!

Surprise your mum this year and take part in a cooking class you can all enjoy together. With thousands of classes to choose from, you won’t be stuck for ideas. With a cooking class, it could ignite a new hobby for the whole family, and you could cook together back home more often. While many families struggle with finding the time to cook from scratch, you could easily work together and learn loads of fabulous new recipes which will help everyone feel more confident when it comes to cooking at home. 

Instead of Mum spending time in the kitchen on her own, spend more time together as a family and enjoy cooking together. Whilst you might be looking for Mother’s Day gifts, you probably have no idea the benefits of taking part in a cooking class together. The family could enjoy it so much, you could find a new tradition and even start going to a monthly cooking class together for example. 

Instead of going out for Mother’s Day lunch this year, here are some of the best Mother’s Day Australia cooking classes from around the world!

Try a French cooking class in Brisbane

French croissant baking

Vetoed the idea of a flight to Europe? Transport your mum to Paris for Mother’s Day with this indulgent French cooking class in Brisbane. Discover the tastes of France and picture yourself sitting at a café on the old cobblestone streets as you eat a three-course meal.

If she loves the idea of eating delicious French food, join a French chef for a three-hour action-packed French cooking class everyone will love! A local chef will teach you how to create a three-course meal and learn loads of secrets about how to create delicious mouth-watering food, which everyone will want to repeat back home. 

Expect to make French classics like pâté with French baguettes, or coq au vin with spatchcock hen served with a twist on gourmet mash. Or learn how to make a classic Crème Brulée and sit down all together at the end of the class to enjoy the meal you’ve cooked. Your family will have so much fun in this engaging class – you’ll just need to decide which class you want to book next time!

Discover a ramen noodle and tonkatsu soup cooking class in Sydney

Japanese cooking

Who doesn’t love ramen? Treat your mum to a Mother’s Day in Sydney she won’t forget by learning how to make your own ramen in a hands-on cooking class. Step out of your comfort zone and enjoy a two-hour lesson learning how to prepare a popular ramen noodle soup with an experienced local chef. 

In this beginners class, you’ll be able to immerse the whole family into a new experience and create new memories together as you learn to make some of Sydney’s best-loved foods! 

Expect to learn loads of tips and tricks for creating amazing ramen that you won’t find in a recipe book. When you learn how to cook it to perfection, you’ll also learn which toppings to complement the delicious flavours. A ramen cooking class will definitely beat the idea of going to a local restaurant again for Mother’s Day in Sydney. 

Take Mum to a Thai cooking class in Melbourne

Cooking

Rather than getting take out, spend a quality Mother’s Day by exploring a Thai cooking class in Melbourne. This fun and engaging three-hour class will have the family bonding quickly and making special memories you’ll be talking about for ages. If your family love Thai food but never seem to make it like they do in a restaurant or at your local takeaway, learn the basics in this hands-on beginners class.

Expect to learn how to cook delicious, fragrant food to perfection with the help of a local Thai chef. They will teach you all about where to find the best ingredients in Melbourne and how to cook them properly for an authentic Thai meal. At the end of the class, you’ll sit down together and eat the beautiful meal you’ve cooked all together. 

When you finish the Thai cooking workshop, you’ll come away with loads of new recipe ideas to cook together as a family when you get back home. 

Have fun at a Greek and Turkish cooking class in Perth

Looking for 'mother daughter classes near me?' Enjoy a Greek and Turkish cooking class in Perth like no other! With no previous experience required, bring your Mum to a hands-on cooking class they’ll absolutely love! A local chef will guide everyone into making delicious food, inspired by their own heritage. Learn the cooking secrets they grew up with that you won’t find in a cooking book and continue their traditions in your own family. 

Expect to learn how to make classics like spanakopita (a spinach and feta filo pie), stuffed zucchini and tomatoes with minced beef in a delicious tomato sauce and of course a Greek salad for example. At the end of the class, you’ll sit down all together and enjoy the restaurant-worthy dishes you’ve just created. 

Whilst these are just some of the cooking experiences in Australia to enjoy, we have thousands of cooking classes for the whole family. Rather than going to a restaurant to celebrate Mother’s Day lunch this year, try something different. When you get your whole family together to enjoy cooking new dishes, we hope this will inspire families to spend more time together in the kitchen to reignite a love for cooking together more often.
