Golden Brown and fun all around! - I had a wonderful solo cooking lesson with Apkeshya and Sandhya. Their laughter and fun made the whole experience very enjoyable and the food was great and fun to cook. The power went out from a local storm and we finished the lesson in a cute candle light kind if way!

Recommended! - Had cooking lessons today and learned a lot. First about the herbs but also about preparation methods of real Nepalese dishes. Was educational and in nice atmosphere. The result was also very tasty. We will definitely try again at home. Finally (and not unimportantly): part of the costs go to a local charity.

Great fun cooking class - My girlfriend and I did a 4 course meal cooking class. We had so much fun! The girls are really enthusiastic and they explain everything very well. At the end you also get a great recipe book so you can prove you skills at home. We really recommend to take a cooking class here when you come to Kathmandu!

Fun cooking class - I chose their four-course half-day cooking class and was joined by another traveler. We selected menu option #3 and had a fantastic time learning about the different spices, as well as how to prepare and cook each dish. The food was delicious, and the masala tea was especially good. The volunteer students leading the class were warm, friendly, and very hospitable. You can also purchase packaged spices, aprons, and other souvenirs to take home.

Such a fun activity, delicious food - Had a fantastic evening (just over 2 hours) making Chatamari, Dal/Chapati, Momos, Carrot pudding. Very easy to book directly via website/WhatsApp. The team were so welcoming and made the experience so fun. We were expertly guided through the preparation and cooking of each dish, and I would feel confident replicating them at home. Everything tasted so good! The whole process was incredibly smooth, and the team worked incredibly well together. We had such a great time - thank you!!!
