Lovely hosts and delicious food! - Jemima and Aaron were amazing hosts, it was lovely to get to know them and hear their stories. We learnt so much about Indian food and the ingredients they used. In addition to the food Jemima cooked with us, she and her husband had prepared many different dishes for us to try. They adapted everything to our taste and we discovered a new type of food that we will definitely cook again. It was delicious, we had a lovely time, thank you Aaron and Jemima!

Delicious South Indian food, cooking tips and a nice time with friendly locals - Great experience and a delicious dinner. Maybe more of a cooking demonstration than an actual class but I got a lot of cooking tips and really enjoyed chatting with Jemima and her husband about cooking, food culture and other things. A well spent evening that I can certainly recommend for those interested in Indian cooking or even just for the experience to visit a home and talk to friendly, easy-going locals! It's a little outside central London but easy to get to by local train.

Great food, plenty to learn and lovely people - Would recommend to couples and small groups that are keen to try a range of dishes and to understand how and why the ingredients are paired. Hosts were knowledgeable and friendly.

In Jemima's Kitchen - Talking with Jemima in her kitchen as she explained what she was doing, the spices she was using, and the equipment. It was great to see the cooking in the context of her home and family. We also loved speaking to her and her husband about family and culture. Also, we enjoyed eating the delicious food! It was a feast.
