    Nilu and Janaka were wonderful hosts, and this experience was one of our favourite in Sri Lanka. From an easy hotel pick up, insight into everyday Sri Lankan life and of course new skills learnt and delicious food - this experience had it all. They were even able to cater to dietary requirements including coeliac (gluten free). We recommend this to all who travel to Kandy!! Thank you Janaka and Nilu!

    Such a wonderful experience! The pickup by Nilus husband went smoothly and the drive to the location was filled with interesting consversations about Sri Lanka. His English is excellent! The location is super cozy and in the middle of peaceful nature. The Two made sure we feel comfortable and explained the cooking process in detail while answering all our questions. We were really happy we booked this course and it was one of our best experiences in Sri Lanka! :)

    Wow, what an incredible experience!! We were picked up at our hotel by Janaka (who is probably the kindest person you will ever meet) and brought to his family home, where we met his lovely wife, Nilu, and children. We had advised them ahead of time that we preferred vegetarian cooking, so we made 8 incredible vegetable-based dishes. Nilu started by explaining the different spices and ingredients, then showed us how to cook each dish. They picked ingredients/dishes that we can find at home, so we can actually make them ourselves in the future! They grow a lot of ingredients on their land, so everything is fresh and healthy. We felt so welcomed into this lovely family and would 100% recommend this experience to anyone travelling through Kandy!

    Firstly, a massive thank you to Nilu, Janaka and family for the best cooking class we have ever done (we’ve done a lot) from start to finish everything was perfect. The Sri Lankan cooking style and methods was brilliantly explained and easy to follow, you will be excited to take these new skills back home. Janaka kindly picked us up and dropped us back off after our cooking class which was a bonus. To top this amazing experience off, the variety of dishes and food Nilu taught us to create was absolutely INCREDIBLE - the best food we have eaten by a mile so far in Sri Lanka. Thank you SO much, Jessie and Lewis.
