best food we’ve had all trip

we have been in sri lanka for a week and have had rice and curries everyday. the food we had at this cooking class was by far our favourite curries. we had four vegetable curries as we are vegetarian and chose beetroot, okra, eggplant, and green beans at the market. it was a great experience and we were involved in the prep of all curries and the coconut sambol. all the curries tasted slightly different to the ones we’ve had throughout our trip which made it a worthwhile experience, and you ...read more

Authentic cooking class with market visit and lots of heart

The cooking class was a real highlight of our stay in Sri Lanka! First, we were driven by tuk tuk to a local market where we were allowed to choose the fresh ingredients together – a great experience to get to know the local culture. Afterwards we cooked different curries together and got step by step explanations. Everything was explained very understandably and we learned a lot about Sri Lankan cuisine and spices. It was especially nice that we also got the recipes in the end, so we can reco...read more

Just exciting and...

The home cook showed me how the curries are chopped, sliced, seasoned, fried, cooked and tasted. Wonderful! You are also allowed to participate step by step. The kitchen is perfectly furnished for this course on a covered roof terrace. The hostess has everything ready from the cooking apron to all mostly homemade spices and herbs including recipes. She also speaks very good English. The shopping trip by TukTuk to the vegetable and fish market is a wonderful, colorful introduction to this cookin...read more

Don't eat beforehand !

We really enjoyed the whole experience. Tuk tuk ride to vegetable market to select the vegetables for our 3 curried. Mushroom, bean, and pumpkin. Next, stop the fish markets (you have the option of a fish or chicken curry) to buy out tuna. Then, back to the restaurant to prepare our dishes. Which apart from the curries included Dahl, coconut sambal, rice, and papadums. Once cooked, then lunch = so much food..
