Authentic Bengali Cooking Class in a Local Kolkata Home




Join Zinnia in her Kolkata home for an engaging Bengali cooking class. Experience local flavors, learn her authentic recipes, and enjoy a meal you've prepared together. Vegetarian options available.
Experience Details
Zinnia lives with her husband and their 14 year old daughter in Kolkata. For Zinnia being in the kitchen is truly a stress buster! Zinnia taught herself to cook after she got married from recipe books and long phone conversations with her mother!
Zinnia will welcome you to their apartment in New Town with a warm smile. While you sip on your welcome drink, Zinnia will share all about her love for cooking. She cooks not only traditional Bengali food but can also fix up a few delectable North Indian dishes. The menu is thoughtfully chosen to feature 3-4 Bengali specialties and the distinctive use of mustard oil and mustard seed paste which is unique to Bengali cuisine. Join Zinnia in her small kitchen for a one hour hands-on cooking class and then sit down at the dinning table to enjoy the meal you helped prepare.
Zinnia can offer vegetarian meals on request. Any dietary preferences may be available.
