What an incredible experience. This was so much fun and the food was by far the best we had in Sri Lanka. Everything was so well organized. It's such a beautiful kitchen too. I can't recommend this enough. Thank you to Madha for being such a wonderful teacher.

This experience was one of the best highlights for our trip! Madhu was fantastic and taught us so much from shopping for the produce to introducing us to incredible curries. We had so much fun and enjoyed cooking in a home kitchen together and learning about the spices and traditions.

Absolutely fantastic experience. We had a lovely evening tour of the markets exploring fresh fruits and vegetables and getting a sense of the spices.
Back to Madhu’s lovely family home where we got a hands on cooking experience with her and her family.
It finished with a wonderful dining experience with the four other guests getting to know each other and share our Sri Lankan journey.
The organisation was also easy and seamless.
Would recommend highly.

Authentic Sri Lankan cooking and dining experience 💛 from the preparation to cooking to eating. It was all very traditional and I learnt so much about Sri Lankan cooking and food. Big bonus the food was delicious and there was sooo much! We ended up making 13 dishes! A must do!

Great cooking class. Madhu was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The class was held at her home, where we also met her wonderful family members.

Afhentning på vores hotel, videre til marked hvor vi blev præsenteret for alle de forskellige frugter og grøntsager og krydderier.
Så gik turen til Nisansalas private hjem, hvor vi lavede mad i et originalt Sri Lankansk køkken, grundigt gennemgået af fruen i huset.
Til sidst indtog vi det lækre måltid bestående af mange retter.
Det eneste lille minus var at hjemtransport ikke var inkl., men der blev bestilt en Tuk-tuk som kun kostede 30 kr.
