Wonderful experience! Cheg Legina is so encouraging and makes sure to walk you through everything. We even stopped to talk about rice preparation and she and her sous chef wanted to understand step by step what the participants were doing so they knew how to correct and inform us on how to properly cook rice. I will definitely be returning.
