What You’ll Experience

Step into your host’s warm East Bay home for a private, hands-on cooking class that blends bold Indian flavors with fresh California ingredients. Start with a welcome drink and snack before diving into the kitchen to prepare three seasonal dishes - learning to mix marinades, layer spices, and garnish like a pro. Afterward, enjoy your creations with a glass of local Californian wine. Menus can be adapted for gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, or dairy-free diets. Prefer a more traditional South Indian menu? Your host is happy to customize! For guests visiting on Saturday, add an optional market tour at the Pleasanton Farmers Market, just steps from your host's home, to shop local produce before cooking. Your host has a small dog, but he can be kept in another room during your visit.
