Sunita was an excellent teacher and she coped well with a class of mixed levels of cooking experiences. She gave us many extra personal tips and is clearly experienced and passionate at what she does.
The evening ran smoothly because it was well prepared and Carla helped with washing up and tidying along the way. We will be looking at other courses for 2017.
Over the last year my partner and I have visited the place many times whilst meeting up with my brother who lives nearby. The woman who runs the shop is consistently surly and unfriendly. Interestingly she always says hello to my brother and is friendly to him, yet each time my partner and I go in it is as if she has never laid eyes on us before. I wonder if there is a direct link between this and amount of money my brother spends in this shop (quite a lot).
We went into the shop last weekend, having driven 45 minutes from where we live up to Chiswick, in order to collect a knife that I had dropped off at the shop in order for it to be repaired. The woman unwrapped my knife to check it was indeed mine and I was surprised to see that it was in exactly the same state as when I dropped it off 6 weeks ago. I asked why this was the case and the woman replied that it wasn’t possible for it to be fixed. I said I had pre-paid for the repair to which she replied that it had been sharpened as part of the service. I have a perfectly good knife sharpener at home and didn’t need to pay for this service but the woman just shrugged. She then stuffed the knife back into the paper it had been wrapped in and handed it to me indicating she was done with us. We left the shop feeling short changed and that the woman did not care about the fact she had sold us a service we did not receive. Clearly our custom means nothing to her.
