Description

The day time experience's are held at my beautiful cosy home in Kilcolgan. I also run some of the experiences at my cafe, Kate's Place, in Oranmore, Orantown centre. In my home, guests enjoy the homely feel of my Irish kitchen. In every experience we always discuss the difference between baking bread long ago, compared to nowadays. I also encourage the use of my fruits and herbs from my garden, where if possible, we avail of seasonal delights.

Exceeded my expectations!

Exceeded my expectations! I fell In love with Irish scones and brown bread last year in Ireland. We are back visiting Ireland again and this class was my number one activity on my bucket list. My homemade scones have been like hockey pucks. We learned the art of fluffy scones ! And the brown bread was dense, flavorful, - delicious!! Enjoyed our time with the other guests. And Kate is an inspiration and delight. Like having a wonderful afternoon having tea and baking with a good friend.

Thank you so much for this review! We are so glad you enjoyed the class and the baked goods!

Literally a woman’s house outside Galway. Takes 40+ minutes in traffic coming from the city. Living on scones and brown bread for days after.

Wonderful class, wonderful host

This was wonderful. Kate was very hands-on, showing how to properly work the dough. I would recommend this experience to everyone. And we got to bring our scones and bread gone with us!

Baking w/Kate❤️

Kate was just lovely❤️From the minute she greeted us (Randy and Darla) at the purple door and invited us in her home to the very end when she gave us our baked goods to go—it was a fun, “cheeky” afternoon where we met three other people for a shared baking experience. We made any scone of our choice—-(cinnamon and nuts for me and blueberry for Randy) and made Irish soda breads—one being snelt bread. Kate was skilled in her technique and quick with her humor and wit. We also left with the recipes and made new friends. We highly recommend the experience!! Thanks again Kate🙏❤️

Operator response

Thank you so much for this kind review! We are so happy you enjoyed this class. We were so delighted to have you and Randy in our home.

A wonderful afternoon cooking with Chef Kate!

The cooking session is in Kate's beautiful home and was a fabulous experience! Her chef experience and knowledge is quite impressive which made it more than just cooking off a recipe. After our baking, we sat at her table overlooking her beautiful garden. She has specialty jams available as well and we went home with a recipe pamplet as well as our scones and bread.

Operator response

Thank you so much Natalie for your review. We are so glad you enjoyed the class!

Kate was knowledgable and friendly! Scones were delicious!

This was one stop on our trip to Ireland that I absolutely HAD to do. We were very excited because I love a baked good. We accidentally got our time wrong and arrived twenty minutes late! But Kate was kind enough to take us anyway and didn't make us feel rushed. We still got to do BOTH scone making and brown bread. We made two flavors of scones, blueberry and almond/pear (she let us pick). We had a nice time talking with Kate and she even was giving us suggestions for the area. After we finished baking we enjoyed eating some of our treats on the patio with some tea. She gave us a bag to carry out the rest (which we nibbled on throughout the rest of our trip). We also got recipe cards to take home. I am excited to bake these scones at home!

Operator response

You all were wonderful! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed yourselves! We hope you had a lovely rest of your time in Ireland and made it back home safely!
