“Thank you so much for an amazing day...it was truly fantastic! The class actually surpassed my expectations. I wasn’t sure what to expect really but never quite imagined it would be as awesome as it was. I thoroughly loved the cooking and loved that everyone else was enjoying it was well. The venue was simply just gorgeous. Very warm, inviting, quirky and just absolutely charming. It was well equipped with all that we needed and more.The atmosphere really did break the ice and I think we all left feeling more connected than we had ever been.I would LOVE for us to do another session. I don’t even mind doing the same thing with different recipes. It was truly a sensational day. Would recommend this in a heartbeat.” Donna Mahrous, Abbotsleigh, Jan 2017

“I gave 5 out of 5 for everything on our Urban day retreat including that I would recommend Louise and Nourishing Nosh to others for a staff development day. I loved making easy great healthy food and really enjoyed the “Managaing cravings” session It was a very balanced day with a great mixture of instruction, sharing experience, then cooking and eating. Louise’s delivery was Professional and friendly.” Rochelle Wiley, Abbotsleigh Jan 2017
“The highlight for me was trying recipes that I never would have bought the ingredients to try and make. The day retreat exceeded expectations, we made meals I would actually make at home that didn’t have too many weird ingredients or lots of prep. I would recommend it to others for a staff PD day.” Rachel Clemenger, Abbotsleigh, Jan 2017
Thank you for your very informative cooking session. With the delicious recipes from the class I have been able to transform my children's lunchboxes into a colourful, tasty and nutritious array of food. I've been amazed just how much they are enjoying these recipes and with the high demand for more the biggest challenge is having enough to get through to the end of the week! Thank you for helping me to steer my children away from sugar and towards these healthy tasty creations. Many thanks, Kate June 2015
“Louise’s presentation was spot on & the girls really enjoyed it. Louise engaged with & related to our students really well, tailoring content to their interests and needs. We would highly recommend Nourishing Nosh to schools looking for an entertaining & informative workshop with up to date and relevant information.” Jo Marshall, Food Technology teacher, Roseville College, 2016
"Louise is a passionate, engaging healthy food advocate. She not only cuts through all the myths and misconceptions about food, but manages to make learning about good nutrition so much fun! " Dannielle Miller, author, educator and media commentator, Enlighten Education, 2016
Testimonial from the Birthday girl - May 2015
“Lou from Nourishing Nosh recently catered for my special birthday celebration. She was easy to work with and straight away understood what I wanted and would enjoy. I really love pure organic food, locally sourced and lovingly cooked and presented. Nourishing Nosh certainly embraces this philosophy. On the night, Lou was calm, professional and warm and everything went according to plan . The most important thing! The food was absolutely outstanding, amazingly fresh and so very tasty. Many guests remarked on the quality food saying it was fantastic. Thank you Lou you are amazing and you left we with memories of a perfect celebration. I can’t wait to taste some more fare from your kitchen. Janet Cater North Manly “
I Love the way Louise makes her cooking classes relaxed, informative and fun, even when everyone is firing questions at her. I have enjoyed all the classes I have done so far. I have learned so much about healthy, delicious, nutritious food, discovered new flavour sensations and new methods of cooking.
I would highly recommend these classes to gain knowledge in preparing exciting recipes with fresh produce and it is so nice to sit down and share the meal with everyone at the end of the class.
Thanks Louise, I'll be back! Jennie. (April 2013)
Hi Lou
This is a note to thank you so much for all your hard work and stunning catering at our party last Saturday night. We had many comments on the evening and have received phone calls, texts and emails since then thanking us for the night and commenting again about how fantastic the food was. Many said that it was the best cocktail food that they had ever had, with everyone impressed with the quality, variety and taste. Most said that they ate numerous pieces of the nougat because they said they'd never tasted nougat so delicious. So, all in all, the whole night was a huge success due, in no small part, to your fabulous food contribution.
I hope you enjoy your Christmas and New Year break and no doubt we'll catch up again in 2013.
Love, Catherine. x

The kids loved the school holiday cooking classes and are keen to take over the kitchen. I made the vietnamese poached chicken salad again as part of a birthday dinner last week. It is such a winner.
And we are having the caramelized onion, spinach and kale tart for dinner tonight!!! Thank you Lou for all the inspiration. Chrissy, Seaforth

Hi Ladies, Thanks so much for yesterday, you both ran a great workshop and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I am motivated to stuff more vegies into me and family - my lunch with a friend was an Asian salad with beetroot, ginger etc smoothie, and Luca's lunchbox includes spinach today! Thank you for the inspiration. Sep 2012

Your classes are great, and I have recommended them to a few people. I attended a competitor's class recently , and it wasn’t a patch on yours. I certainly didn’t get the amount of information or instruction that I have had at your classes. Just thought you’d like to know. Keep up to the great classes! August 2012
