Divertimenti Cookery School in London's Kensington is a truly unique way to bring people together - be it friends, family or colleagues - with exclusive hire of a contemporary, flexible kitchen space and the option for cookery demos and lessons for up to 22 guests.
Exclusive hire can be arranged for a full day, half day or evening, with access to top-of-the-line appliances and professional equipment. That makes the space especially useful for brands and food businesses looking to create content or host demonstrations without having to bring an entire kitchen set-up with them.
Events can also become much more interactive. Private cookery classes accommodate up to 14 guests and can be designed around the group, making them a strong option for team building, corporate entertaining or private celebrations. For something less hands-on, demonstrations followed by dinner can host up to 22 guests, combining an expert-led cooking session with a bespoke meal.
Private dining takes the concept a step further. Divertimenti can transform the school into a chef-hosted dining room, creating a tailored fine-dining menu with optional drinks pairings. Its extensive network of chefs means events can explore a wide range of cuisines, while the team handles everything from menu development to wine matching.
The styling is considered too. Tableware, glassware and linens can be selected from Divertimenti’s own in-store collections, drawing on a range that includes hand-decorated pieces, specialist cookware, cutlery and tableware sourced from around the world. Guests can even leave with a Divertimenti goody bag.
The venue benefits from the heritage of a brand that has been serving food lovers since the 1960s, while the Cookery School itself has long brought chefs, professionals and enthusiastic home cooks together to learn new skills. It's also in a brilliant location in one of London's most beautiful areas and close to transport links for your guests.
