On The Menu

On The Menu offer cooking holidays in fabulous destinations worldwide for people who love food. As Diana Kuan of Boston Globe put it, 'Cooking is part of seeing the world' and with On The Menu, you can be assured of just that.

These activity holidays showcase local cuisine with lots of hands on cooking but also time to unwind and explore the area. By teaming up with a number of first class cooking schools, On The Menu offers luxurious holidays that provide their clients with comfort but more importantly a unique insight into the food of the area. The atmosphere is always relaxed, educational and fun and you don't have to be an expert cook. These are courses for enthusiasts and non cooking companions are always welcome.

Classes are kept small so that there is plenty of individual attention and teachers can be either gourmet chefs or local women who have learned to cook from their mothers and grandmothers. The holidays include trips to markets and producers to source ingredients.

Whether you want to learn to cook in a vibrant city, the luscious countryside or by an idyllic beach, you will find much to tempt here. Locations include Australia, France, India (where the company organised their first holidays), Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Jordan, Mexico, Morocco, Spain, Thailand and Vietnam.

Newly added destinations include weekend breaks in England and Mediterranean getaways in Greece and Portugal. There are also some mouthwatering new schools in Spain; Andalusia and a gastronomy tour of Rioja.
