COOKING - Learn To Cook Like A Pro
Jimmy Buffet
Rated 5/5 by 20 users
Cooking is my absolute passion! I’ve been cooking since I can remember and have always been pretty handy around the kitchen.
Originally from London I’ve worked in some of the best restaurants overseas and also taught many people how to cook. I now write my own recipes and teach people how to cook full-time.
I do both online lessons and in person lessons if you live in Auckland, New Zealand.
I promise my teaching style to be well suited to all levels of aspiring chefs and kitchen warriors. Whether you’re wanting to gain some extra tips and techniques to hone your abilities, maybe you’re wanting to impress your friends with an amazing dinner, or maybe you’re the type of person who can’t event cook toast, I can help you all.
I write my own recipes, I have developed my own worksheets and guides which I will share with you and help you become the next Gordon Ramsay of your friends.

What up players, I’m Jim, I’m pretty friggen hilarious. Have you ever seen stand up comedy and thought to yourself that you could do that? Choice, same, in fact that’s exactly how I started.
I no longer do live shows and only perform at exclusive events/parties. This affords me time to coach and train other stand up comics. I’ve worked with some great comics over the years and have no problem teaching you the art of delivering a punch line while telling the most outrageous story ever told.
I know what you’re thinking, how can this white dude be so supa dope and hilarious, but trust me I am. So stop pussy footing around and let’s do this.
