"A tasty authentic cultural exchange"
Rustic cooking class was more than I had hoped for. My teacher/host meandered through an amazing farmer’s market with me, patiently identifying fruits snd vegetables that were new to me and stopping for tastes. We built our cooking menu around the market’s offerings, ie, jackfruit curry, chicken curry with coconut milk, cinnamon and chilis, coconut sambal and coconut roti. Wood apple juice and Lion beer ti drink. We cooked in clay pits in Nim’s beautiful home while monkeys played in the trees. It was a wonderful and authentic cultural exchange and extremely delicious! A top experience if my trip!
"Exceptional experience!"
They sent us a pick up to the hotel, which dropped us at a meeting point. There, Nim was waiting for us. We set up a menu there and then went to the market together. Nim explained a lot, it was really interesting. We were lucky, that the two of us had a private class... so Nim could take the time and add some additional dishes according to our wish. After the market we took a TukTuk to Nim's house. He was a very friendly and welcoming host. His housr is amazing. We really enjoyed there! Nim explained every step very well. He told us about products and how they come together with Sri Lankan cooking techniques. After cooking we had dinner together... best Sri Lankan food ever!!! Nim had a lot of recipes for us to take home! He was a great host, an amazing teacher and we had some really fun time together cooking. Strongly recommend this class to anyone!!
"Awesome Cooking Experience"
My friend and I booked this cooking class and were totally impressed. The kitchen and dining area is open and airy, modern and beautiful. Nim and his team took us shopping at the market for ingredients (altering the menu for my dietary requirements). Preparation of the food was fun and the cooking smelt so good. A huge range of dishes including, yellow rice, lotus root curry, Dahl, chicken curry (I substituted lady fingers/okra) papadams, green centella/coconut salad, deep fried oyster mushrooms. Followed by dessert using the local treacle. We loved the treacle so much, one of the staff drove his bike to get us a few bottles to take home, as they were worried we may not get the right one ourselves! We would totally recommend this class - market visit and cooking class. The warmth and friendliness shown to us was wonderful. Thank you to the whole team.
"Great Cooking Experience"
Really great experience! We felt very welcomed and were guided fantastically by Nim. The market was an awesome experience and the menu delicious. Highly recommended!
"Great hands on experience !!!"
Attended this amazing cooking class with my wife when were in Colombo last September. It was not just a demonstration or stirring pots, but a great hands on experience. It included a market visit as well where we got to learn a lot about local spices, vegetables and techniques of choosing the best one. Nim, the chef has a vast knowledge on local food and cooking.
