Best Cooking Class

Kristin_S, Feb 2024
Rita and Mukund were the best! It was really cool going to the farmer's market to buy some of the ingredients we would be using in the dishes that we made. Rita explained everything each step of the way and the food tasted amazing! We would recommend this to anyone who wants to get a better understanding of Indian cooking. They even gave us recipes of everything we made so that we can make them again.
