    Cooking with Nami was a wonderful experience. I am from the US and am in India with my husband for 5 weeks during the summer. I took a number of similar cooking classes throughout my time in India. I love Indian food and love cooking but my own attempts have always come up short. This class helped me to understand my previous missteps as well as strategies or dishes I’d never even thought to try. My other classes were also very good, but Namita’s was much more personalized, relaxed, and warm. Dr. Namita is extremely professional, motherly, funny and talented. Genuinely. She obviously has many years of practice to share but, as a teacher in her professional life, she also understands how to teach and not just show by example. She came up with a personalized list of dishes that I had been wanting to try or that I hadn’t learned before, she had them typed and printed for me with thorough instructions. She also accommodated my being vegetarian very easily. Our many dishes turned out better than restaurant quality! I was so impressed and am eager to practice cooking the recipes once I’m home! I admit that I was feeling a bit awkward singing up for the class alone, since my husband wasn’t able to join me this time. It wasn’t awkward at all - Namita, her husband, and her son made me feel so welcome, and we spent a lot of time chatting about many different topics - before, during, and after our meal together. Her home is lovely and her knowledge of spices, homemade ingredients, healthy tips and tricks, making cooking easier in different situations - it was all so impressive. Thank you, Namitaji, for such a fun and memorable session! I will text you photos of my future attempts!

    I had a wonderful experience with Namita! She showed me around a local market, pointing out local fruits/veg and common ingredients for Indian cooking. Then we headed to her home and cooked several Indian dishes-this experience was everything I was hoping for! If you’re interested in an Indian cooking course in Bangalore, I highly recommend booking with Namita!

    Namita and her husband were such a lovely couple. They were so gracious and welcoming — my friends and I wanted to chat with them for hours, and it instantly felt like we had known them forever. We joined Namita for an early dinner cooking lesson and got so caught up in conversation that we had to remind ourselves that we wanted to go to the market! It was truly wonderful being able to visit the market with a local and learn about the different fruit and veggies they have that we hadn't seen or tried before. Namita walked us through what everything was and how they usually cook with it, and I was really grateful to be able to experience it. Everything was super organized — we had our own little recipe packet to follow along so we could make everything together and make it ourselves once we got home. Namita prepared a vegetarian menu for us and it included everything we could ever hope for — a dal, paneer curry, roti, chapati, dosa, sauteed vegetables, naan (she had prepared some dough, but we already had so much food we didn't make this one), rice. I mean, just look at the pictures — everything turned out wonderfully and was so delicious. They were extremely kind and generous and offered to take us to a store nearby so we could buy one of the utensils they used in the kitchen (a dosa flipper). Namita was also so sweet and continued to share tips and places to go throughout my stay in India. What a lovely human. I would do this 1,000 more times and not get tired of it. I've already recommended it to several of my friends who were staying in India a bit longer than I was.
