A pop-up cookery school… at Harrods
I like to shop (what girl doesn’t?), but rarely do I find myself on the second floor of
Harrods holding a freshly caught trout. Today, though, I’m not here to buy – I’m here to learn.
Headlining Harrods’ month-long Summer Kitchen event is esteemed Gloucestershire food school
Thyme at Southrop Manor
, who will be delivering demonstrations, tastings and lessons in all things culinary – from sausage-making to seasonal baking. I’m here to sample the fish class – hence the trout…

“How are your knife skills?” asks Thyme’s culinary director Daryll Taylor.

delicious. food team)
.
An hour later and I have two new dishes to add to my repertoire and some handy kitchen tips. I’m pleased to report I still have 10 digits firmly intact.
