food is love

Welcome to Sarah Rankin Cooks – Scotland’s Home of Exceptional Private Dining, Cookery Classes, and Culinary Experiences

I’m Sarah Rankin, a Scottish chef, food writer, broadcaster passionate about creating unforgettable food moments.

Whether I’m hosting bespoke Private Dining experiences, leading hands‑on Cookery Classes, or inspiring audiences through live food demos, festivals and culinary events, my mission is simple: to bring people together through the joy of food.

From intimate supper clubs to corporate team‑building cookery experiences, every event is crafted with seasonality, storytelling, and a deep love of Scotland’s larder at its heart.
