Wow so amazing and so much fun! Definitely must do in Goa - This cooking class was so much fun from start to finish. There was plenty of delicious food to enjoy, and the experience was both engaging and relaxed. It felt very personalized, with great communication between everyone throughout the class, which made it even more enjoyable. Kunchun and her staff was amazing and super-duper professional, while still being incredibly fun, welcoming, and interactive. The environment was super clean and well-organized. I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a great time and amazing food.

The best cooking class in south goa!! - Wow, what an amazing experience we had learning to cook authentic Indian dishes . Unlike a lot of cooking experiences we have done before this one was by far the best! Firstly we was welcomed with a drink and a fresh snack which helped as we was soooo hungry we felt super energised and ready to learn We have done a lot and everytime we have to cut all produce ourselves … because we didn’t do this we had more hands on experience cooking and didn’t feel like an assistant.Not only did we learn to cook the dishes, she explained everything in detail, from all the spices and how we could then go on to make even more dishes out of everything we learned . This kitchen has got to be the cleanest kitchen in Goa as well I must say . All the produce was super fresh too! We was soooo full at the end , we loved every single dish and cannot wait to try them at home !
Kanchan was so easy to learn from and she was so helpful. She is such a special lady
Thank you sooo much and we cannot wait to keep in contact . We will definitely be messaging her when we’re home for more advice if we ever need.

Not to be missed! - Can I give 6 stars? Learning to cook Indian with Kanchan was without a doubt the highlight of our time in Goa. She welcomed us into her space with some snacks and explained how easy they were to make while we settled in. Soon, we were given aprons to wear and were each assigned some dishes to prepare. In total we made 6 completely different things--one of them was a custom request of a local Goan dish--and feasted on them all at the end of our session. She was a clear communicator, was very hands-on in her teaching style, and made the experience not just informative but really fun. Highly recommend this class from this instructor! Such great value.

Excellent cooking experience - Thank you very much for the wonderful individual workshop! Kanchan is a wonderfully open and kind man and a wonderful teacher. She taught me the basics of Indian cuisine, showed me how to cook, and generously shared recipes. I recommend the workshop to all culinary arts lovers!

WONDERFUL - I really loved this Indian cooking class in Palolem. It felt relaxed, generous, and rooted in real home cooking rather than something overly staged.
She was very thoughtful about explaining the consistency of the base masalas, so you don’t waste time at home and can cook multiple dishes starting from the same base. The peanut okra was a highlight – absolutely delicious – and making paratha from scratch was a joy, especially eating it warm with fresh butter on top. I’ll definitely be freezing my own chopped masala after this.
Highly recommend if you want a practical, hands-on, and genuinely enjoyable introduction to Indian cooking.

Wonderful authentic cooking class - Super interesting and interactive cooking experience. From the start to the end this was brilliant. We learnt to make a number of dishes with simple easy to remember instructions with hands on guidance. We started with some delicious snacks made by the owner, then learnt about the basic components to make a simple curry gravy. Followed by being invited to make our own individual dishes to each share at the end. I have previously done other cooking classes but not as good as this one. I really liked that the group was smaller so you had a chance to engage more with the chef who was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. It has been the highlight of our holiday and would 100% recommend.
