An authentic experience. - The cooking class was a wonderful experience. There is a nice room to prepare the food. The family also comes around the corner. You can't get it more authentic.
The ingredients are fresh and the spices spicy. Cooking you look out over the rice fields, while in the corner the wood fire burns. Very nice to do with your partner or larger group.
Of course, the challenge is to make the dishes just as delicious at home.
The price p.p. initially put us off, but we personally asked what it should cost and were able to make a good deal.
Highly recommended!

Great experience, great food! - We did the cooking class and we made several Sri Lankan dishes. It was really nice and we had a lovely dinner.
Malee was very kind in showing how to cook and what spices she uses.
She has a nice outside kitchen and cooks in a wood stove kitchen.
Would recommend!
