Amazing experience - Don't miss it! - This was one of the highlights of our holiday in India. Medha opened her beautiful home to us, introduced us to her lovely family and gave us a memorable and unique experience. Her English is top notch and her cookery and food is amazing! She also helped us understand Indian culture better. If you can, book a session with her! Ruth and Charlo from Malta

Fun Time! - This was so much fun! The family took us in and went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. They were incredibly warm and friendly, enthusiastic, and gracious. Dr. Gupta walked us through dinner prep in the kitchen, inviting us to cut vegetables and add seasoning. During dinner, I struck up a conversation with the patriarch of the house, and we became fast friends. Soon, he was showing me yoga positions and telling me about his life. This was a very special evening, and we all felt like we got a deeper sense of life in India. I would highly recommend doing this.

After a hectic few days of travel and sightseeing, the day we spent on this cooking class was a welcome escape, learning amazing new techniques and having lovely chats with the family about life in Jaipur.

Accommodating to Gluten Free and Vegan!! - We had the most incredible experience cooking with Shikha and Medha in their home. They were both so passionate about cooking and meeting new people, we had great conversations and the food was delicious!! I am gluten intolerant and vegan so they taught us how to make each vegetarian dish without dairy, a millet roti and a desert I can make easily at home! I am so grateful for them adjusting the menu to my dietary needs, for the fun experience and their hospitality!

Best thing you can do in Jaipur! - What a great experience it was! The family was absolutely welcoming and friendly, making cooking experience so nice and unique and local that I could feel like at home. This was fantastic opportunity to learn about indian cooking and try local dishes. Flipping chapatis on the stove - unforgettable. Totally recommending this experience!

Cooking and so much more - This class was absolutely the BEST! Medha and her family were extremely welcoming. Upon arrival they gave us marigold necklaces. We first learned about the different spices used in daily cooking. We cooked veg pakoras for appetizers. Then moved on to how to prepare the veg. We had a delicious potato dish as well as fresh okra, Raita, and Parantha. Medusa mother and father in law were most gracious and friendly. I mostly enjoyed getting to know them and learn about their daily lives. The food was the best we have eaten in our entire trip. While I was learning about cooking my husband was getting some valuable yoga instruction and wisdom!
