Warm and friendly Chef Raaje hosted a phenomenal class. The dishes were delicious and will be easy to make at home once she teaches you. “Chicken 65” is my new favorite protein. Chicken Biryani is a flavorful one pot chicken and rice dish. We also learned the culture of south indian food. Thank you so much Chef Raaje ❤️

Chef Rajeswari was amazing!!! I took the class with my boyfriend to celebrate his boyfriend and we had such a great time. Chef Rajeswari was super patient, informative, and helpful. She took the time to explain the process and benefits of the ingredients throughout the process. We would definitely recommend this class. Thanks again for everything Chef Rajeswari!

I had such an amazing time at this class. Chef Rajeswari made us feel comfortable, and was an amazing teacher and host. She offered the perfect combo of hands on assistance and freedom for us to try it on our own. I left the class feeling more confident in my ability to create this meal at home. The food was so good I’m looking forward to trying it on my own.

I did the South Indian cooking class with Chef Raaje. We learned how to make 4 dishes total and I had so much fun! Even though I normally don't cook much, Chef Raaje made me feel very at ease the entire time and was very attentive. Apart from the recipes, Chef Raaje was also very helpful and shared a lot of cooking tips and knowledge throughout the class. I would definitely recommend this class to anybody, whether you are a seasoned cook or just someone who wants to try something new and different!

I had the most amazing experience taking a one-on-one cooking class with Rajeswari! From the moment I arrived, she was incredibly warm, kind, and welcoming. As the only student in the class, I got her full attention, and it truly felt like a private masterclass in Indian cooking. We made several delicious dishes — Chicken Biryani, Chicken 65, Mango Lassi, and a refreshing Cucumber Onion Raita. Each one was bursting with flavor, and Rajeswari made the process so easy to follow, breaking everything down step by step. She also took the time to explain the health benefits of the ingredients, like how yogurt supports digestion, or how turmeric and spices can reduce inflammation and boost immunity. It wasn’t just a cooking lesson — it was an experience filled with learning, laughter, and some of the best food I’ve ever made. I left feeling confident and inspired, with recipes I’ll definitely be making again. I can’t recommend Rajeswari’s class highly enough!
