Superb cooking class

Isabelle_S, May 2024
An excellent cooking class with Neha who is very kind and helpful. We did 3 different dishes and 3 breads before heading to the spice market for shopping. I’ve learned a lot and can’t wait to try the recipes at home!

I was beyond satisfied with my cooking class experience. Neha is a wonderful teacher and we had some great conversations. She made the process effortless and makes things accessible for cooks at various skill levels. This was a special experience and an unforgettable part of our trip to Delhi. If you are into experiential activities while traveling, this is a must do!

Overpriced

Roma_M, Mar 2023
I thought the concept will be different, that we will buy fresh ingredients in the market and then will cook. But it was cooking and then a short walk around the market. I would expect more cleaness and fresher ingridients (some of them were wizen). So honestly I think it was a bit overpriced experience.
