Perfect sri lankan cooking experience. - This was a perfect cooking experience. We were picked up from our hotel and bought our ingredients from the market before going to madhu's house and cooking with her family. They made us so welcome and the food we made was authentic Sri lankan. We used a combination of traditional and modern cooking methods to make 9 different curries - all of them tasted incredible. I don't hesitate to recommend this to anyone.

Magic Lanka experience - This was such a different interesting and magical experience, from choosing the vegetables we would cook in the market to cooking with the host and all her family, the food and the setting were so memorable, if you are into food and want to see how Sri Lankan food is made completely by hand and with traditional methods in a really pleasant and family environment, this is for you and lunch after was some of the best food we had in Sri Lanka and we had some amazing food ! It was such good value and one I will always remember ,

Amazing cooking experience - We had an amazing experience with this cooking course and market visit! The atmosphere was incredibly warm and welcoming, almost like being part of a family. The market tour was a fantastic way to learn about local ingredients, and the guidance was friendly and insightful. The cooking class itself was not just informative but also filled with joy and laughter. Every step was explained clearly, and the hands-on approach made it easy to follow. The dishes we prepared were absolutely delicious, and I can’t wait to try them at home! This experience is more than just learning to cook – it’s a cultural immersion and a chance to meet wonderful people. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a truly special and memorable activity. Perfect for food lovers and travelers alike!

Great experience to encounter deep & local food culture - It was a great experience! It was very exciting to visit local vegetable and fish markets that we couldn’t reach on our own, enter villages that we couldn’t meet in tourist spots, and experience living with traditional kitchens and tools. I have a lot of family at home and they all smile and welcome me warmly. They also used so many different kinds of curry, all shockingly delicious! I highly recommend it.

Sri Lankan food heaven ! - A remarkably productive morning visiting Galle Dutch market for our ingredients and then creating (and eating!) 13 traditional Sri Lankan dishes. Madhu welcomed us into her lovely home and kitchen for a truly authentic culinary experience - thank you! We highly recommend this cooking class but make sure you do not eat beforehand in order to enjoy all you have prepared! Xx

A great cooking experience - We booked this tour last minute due to poor weather. As soon as we booked, Madhu text to confirm our pick up and time. She picked us up from our hotel in a Tuk tuk, took us into Galle food market to pick out our vegetables and spices. We then went back to her home in Unawatuna to make our 12 dishes. All dishes were cooked from scratch, made with Madhu guidance, the help of her family and then served at the end of the session. Each dish tasted delicious and different. I particularly enjoy the chicken curry and spinach curry. Would recommend to anyone looking for something unique whilst in Galle/ Unawatuna.

Authentic experience - First a tour of the market with review of all the different fruits and vegetables, then in the spice store with good explanation to the various spices. Then we drove to Nisansalas private home where we got a good and educational review of all the dishes. Eventually we ate all the delicious dishes we had made. Overall a lovely pleasant afternoon

Best Cooking Classes in Unawatuna/Galle - We can highly recommend the cooking class. It was a unique and authentic experience. Vegetables can be chosen at the market itself, from which various dishes are conjured up.

Authentic Sri Lanka Curry Course - We enjoy cooking with spices and had attended courses in the UK. It was one of our key objectives to attend an authentic cooking experience during our stay in Sri Lanka. Madhu and her family made us very welcome, our hopes and expectations were exceeded, we enjoyed shopping for ingredients, helping with the preparation, the explanations and hands on cooking. The meal tasted amazing. A very happy memory that we would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience, highly recommend - We could not speak more highly about tonight’s cooking class with Madhu and her mum. Madhu came to collect us from our hotel and took us to the vegetable market, where all the exotic veg was explained in detail before we picked which ones we wanted to use for our 9 dishes. Next we were welcomed into Madhu’s home and put to work in her beautiful traditional kitchen, learning about all the spices we were using and helping to create the dishes. The evening ended with a feast of all of the food we had made and we almost had to be rolled out of the door for how full we were. All the recipes have now been sent to us and we will be trying to recreate them back in the UK. We would highly recommend this to anyone who is in Galle/Unawatuna. Thanks again Madhu and your family!
