Fantastic food

Fantastic food, especially the Japanese savoury pancakes with Japanese mayo. The sushi was outstanding. The hosts were also very accommodating. When I informed them that I was a vegetarian (no meat or fish), an incredible selection was created for me to enjoy with many clever substitutions, (my partner is not vegetarian and had the Japanese afternoon tea as is). Furthermore, my email request to be sat near the Teppanyaki counter was granted as we were sat directly in front of it. Very good experience.

good fun

Very well organised, great staff. Cars and tracks not necessarily easily available on suitable dates/locations, so some flexibility needed. Ended up at Lydden Hill. Lovely, smallish track.

Fun Sunday Afternoon

It was a great way to spend the afternoon - educational as well as creative. And just a lot of fun with plenty of flavours to test, skills to learn, and treats to eat. Next step could be a Masterclass ??
