We had the most wonderful experience at Manjiri’s Indian cooking class. From the moment we stepped into her home, we felt completely welcomed, like old friends gathering in a cozy kitchen rather than students in a class. She is incredibly hospitable and thoughtful, creating such a relaxed and inviting atmosphere that made the whole experience feel special. The class itself was fantastic. We learned so many practical cooking tips, techniques, and authentic recipes that we can actually recreate at home. Manjiri explains everything clearly and shares little nuggets of wisdom along the way that you just can’t get from a cookbook. And the food. Absolutely delicious. We cooked, tasted, laughed, and by the end left with full, happy bellies and containers of leftovers to enjoy later, which felt like the best kind of souvenir. If you’re considering it, don’t hesitate. I highly recommend this class to anyone who loves great food, warm company, and a truly memorable experience.
