5 star Tripadvisor review: "Had an incredible morning at School of Wok (SoW) this week with my colleagues, preparing a Japanese lunch! SoW hosted the most fun, interactive workshop where we learned all about ingredients, knife/chopping skills, how to cook etc. The lovely Ian ran out session and he was amazing - friendly, funny, informative, patient. It was the best team building event we could have asked for and I can definitely recommend this to other teams for team building events, as well as groups of friends! Even better, we made double portions - ate half, and gave the other half to local charities :)"
