What a wonderful experience! Our family of 5 all agreed this was one of our favorite experiences while in Chennai. Gayathri was so lovely and we enjoyed the time in her home kitchen with she and her husband. She answered all of our questions and showed how to make 4 dishes that we ate! So happy we were able to do this.

We had a wonderful time with Vidhya today. Thanks her for the kind hospitality! We really enjoy her food and her cooking class. She mad sure we understood the receipts, and she demonstrated how simple can Indian food be e prepared. The food was really delicious. We strongly recommend this class.

This was a very pleasant experience, The host Srividya was very good,the 2 hours flew by.Highly recommend.

Pratibha and her family welcomed us very warmly. She was very dedicated in cooking and willingly shared her experiences. Beautiful flavors in all their simplicity. Each dish was very quick to make. So great to sit and eat together. Amazing flavors. This is something we recommend everyone to try!!!

I told her that I run a restaurant that serves South Indian cuisine and wanted to discuss the menu I would like to learn, and she took into consideration the menu I wanted to learn and organized a lesson that included both Chettinadu and Tamil cuisine. Kamala was thoughtful enough to prepare the recipes, and the lesson was thorough and easy to understand, so I was able to spend a valuable time. The finished dishes were also delicious. I'm really glad I was able to participate.

Tara was a great host. It was really interesting talking with her. We communicated beforehand regarding the recipes and prepped our ingredients to the same point before we went on line. The food was delicious!

An excellent event with nice food. Uma and her friend Mali (spelling?) were excellent hosts and their English was excellent - so we were able to have interesting and detailed discussions on a variety of subjects. The house can be difficult to find, so you or your driver will need a mobile phone to navigate the last 100 metres or so.

Sundari’s cooking session in her home was wonderful - we reached out directly, and she was very accommodating, providing helpful and clear instructions on how to get there and what to expect. When we arrived, Sundari gave everyone a lovely welcome into her home and introduced herself, before taking us through to the kitchen. Sundari has such a genuine and warm personality — her love for cooking truly shines through, and the meals we made were absolutely delicious. It took about 2 1/2 hours for the 3 dishes we made (including eating time), and it didn’t feel hurried or rushed. You can elect to make more courses, but we were on a tighter timeframe. Sundari was clear throughout, and was happy to answer any questions, and also provided very clear written recipe instructions to take home, so we could recreate our dishes another time. A wonderful and authentic experience, with a wonderful host, with delicious food at the end. What more could you want? Thank you Sundari!

Meena has been the highlight of our trip so far, she taught us so much about south India cooking as well as the customs and culture. Thank you Meena for inviting us into your home, the food was incredible.

Wow! Amazing hospitality, We learned recipes and got to do hands-on supervised cooking on three dishes. And, we could elect the level of chile we cooked with, from USA our tourist heat tolerance is milder than South India's love of chile. The many other spices layered under the heat are wonderful. On arrival, our host took us on a car tour of a local shrine, the beach front, and a bustling outside vegetable market identifying unfamiliar fruits, vegetables, spices, and lentils. Back home, we were greeted by a friendly yellow lab! We visited, then adjourned to the kitchen, making three dishes. What fun. We learned a lot! Highly recommend this experience.
