Event information:

Join us for the first event in our exciting new French Cooking Series, hosted by the talented Chef Eddy. This inaugural class celebrates one of Provence’s most iconic dishes: Bouillabaisse — a rich, fragrant seafood stew full of classic Mediterranean flavour.

What to Expect

Spend an unforgettable evening learning authentic French techniques in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

On arrival, enjoy a chef-prepared canapé with a glass of bubbles before the class begins.

Then Chef Eddy will guide you through:

  • Fish filleting masterclass – learn professional knife skills and fish preparation
  • How to create a traditional Bouillabaisse from scratch
  • Making your own crostini and classic aioli
  • Enjoying your freshly made Bouillabaisse during the class
  • Extra portions to take home
  • A delicious dessert, prepared by our in-house chefs to finish the evening

Whether you’re coming on your own, with a partner, or as part of a group, you’ll be warmly welcomed and looked after throughout the evening.

Meet Chef Eddy

Chef Eddy is currently Head Chef at The Halfway House.

He trained at Exeter College, where he won the College Final of the prestigious Gordon Ramsay Scholarship Competition. He then travelled extensively, building experience across the globe — from Somerset to Australia, New Zealand to Wales, Devon to Switzerland, Jersey and Italy.

Eddy later spent 11 successful years as Head Chef at The Wheatsheaf, where the pub was ranked No.34 in the Top 50 Pubs in the Good Food Guide and twice awarded Somerset Dining Pub of the Year in the Good Pub Guide.

Now based in Cornwall, his cooking style is rooted in simple, classic French cuisine, using the very best local and seasonal ingredients.
