Chef Rahki was well prepared and introduced us to new spices and new combinations that delivered amazing flavor to pork tenderloin, tuna and chickpea fritters. She planned and explained her menu well and divided the workload well among our group of 8. Her kitchen is well appointed and she creates a positive atmosphere for learning.

Chef Rakhi hosted a beyond phenomenal class. Her kitchen and home is beautiful yet comfortable. She does a great job of breaking down each task into simple and easy to replicate steps and teaches you tips and tricks of cooking. This experience was very engaging, hands-on, and yummy at the end. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning how to cook very flavorful and aromatic Indian cuisine!
