Facebook"It's a pleasure to watch Nigel on stage or in the kitchen, he has a natural ability to entertain an audience with his fantastic skill and gentle manner and we enjoy working with him as one of our select guest chefs at the Novelli Academy. I don't just admire him as a chef but also as a person and both I and the rest of the Academy team are happy to support him in his new venture."

"Thank you so much Nigel and Lisa for the fabulous day Dan and I spent with you on the chocolate course. I feel really guilty I only got Dan an anniversary card and he treated me to this wonderful day, I haven't laughed so much for a long time and we both learnt so many new ideas. Thanks again, can't wait to see you again for the next course."
