Liquid cooks up new culinary course

Kitchen by Liquid, a new business offering from award winning communications agency Liquid, has launched a cookery school in its in-house development kitchen.

Based on Waterloo Street in Birmingham city centre, the cookery school offers both practical experiences and expert masterclasses led by development chef Olivier Briault, and chef director David Colcombe.

Olivier has used his prior experience as recipe developer at M&S, as well as producing award-winning patisserie for Michelin-starred restaurant Simpsons.

With the support of David who previously ran a successful AA rosette restaurant in the city for 10 years, three different masterclasses will be on offer for groups up to six people. These will involve learning practical skills to make macarons, choux pastry and some impressive afternoon tea patisseries.

Olivier and David will also offer bespoke, tailored cookery school sessions for a variety of occasions including parties and company team building days.

Olivier Briault (Pictured), development chef at Kitchen by Liquid, commented: “We 're so excited to be launching the cookery school as a second step in the Kitchen by Liquid journey. I can 't wait to share my experience and love for all things pastry with people. ”

David Colcombe, chef director, added: “We 're starting with three different classes so there will be something for everyone and it 's perfect timing in the run up to Christmas. We have the ideal space to host groups of budding chefs for get-togethers or a Christmas parties with a difference. ”

Masterclass sessions started on 15 October, with prices starting from £75 per person.
