Most delicious curry ever - Tharu’s cooking class is absolutely amazing. I did the class with two friends and we had the best time. Tharu is a really good chef. She and her husband have a beautiful kitchen in their garden. Her husband first gave us a tour of their garden with all the things they grow there. Then we prepared the most delicious curry I’ve ever had with all kinds of delicious fresh ingredients. Tharu and her husband are really nice people. Definitely take a cooking class with them if you’re in Sigiriya!

A top experience!! - The experience was great. What a good cooking lesson this couple gave. And what a good use of time this was on this Sunday afternoon that it had been raining for more than a day and a half!
The extra good thing about this cooking class was that we had to perform all 4 actions! Sometimes at the same time, sometimes in turn. And the explanation was excellent!!
And... what a lot of curries we made and then we feasted deliciously.
Also nice that we were picked up by their tuktuk during our stay and we did not have to go through the impervious puddles, because there was a lot of land under water. Unfortunately their own garden too... so we couldn't pick the curryleaves and pendan leaves from their own garden...
Thank you dear people!
