What a feast

Had a wonderful experience cooking a feast with our hosts and dining on the fruits of our labour which was absolutely delicious (hari rasai in the local language) A lovely family feel as our hosts daughters flittered in and out to help and added to the overall experience. I would heartily recommend to anyone, be sure to bring your appetite as there will be alot to eat.

The cooking curry family

With anusha and imashi it was great fun this afternoon and we made 7 curries and dessert with our family with teens. It took around 3 hours preparation. I would surely recommend this cooking class with this lovely family

Amazing experience

We had an unforgettable time at "Organic Cooking Class Sigiriya TASTY TASKS". The mother and daughter were incredibly kind, welcoming, and patient teachers. They guided us through the process with so much care and shared great insights into Sri Lankan cooking. The organic dishes we made together were absolutely delicious—honestly one of the best meals we've had in Sri Lanka! It was such a heartwarming and authentic experience for our family. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories.
