Great insight into Azerbaijani cooking - We were collected by cab to join Eltaj's friend and Eltaj's mum for a cooking experience his mum's house. This was a wonderful experience. Eltaj's friend, the cook, explained the procedure for each dish carefully and his mum served us with her wonderful Kompot. We learnt a lot from both of them about life in Azerbaijan. I think Eltaj should explain that his mum's flat is very far outside the centre of Baku. We also feel that the cost of that experience was very high.

Homey home cooked traditional meals! - This was an absolutely lovely experience with Chef Ali! I was picked up to head to the home of our host, where chef Ali guided me through the preparation of a vegetarian meal. I had limited time, so deeply appreciated the team for adapting the workshop to the 3 hours I had, but we still managed to make 3 fantastic vegetarian dishes!

Delicious and happy in Baku - This was an incredible experience! They picked us up right on time and communicated perfectly. We then met our amazing chef Ali in a cozy home setting. We had tea and then started cooking. We learned so much about history and how food played a role. We ended up staying longer having so much fun with our hosts. We would definitely recommend and the food was delicious!
