5.00Our family experienced the amazing Kandyan Cooking class, which was an exceptional experience we all loved! It was hands on preparation and cooking. We experienced local culture using fresh produce, spices and ingredients. Our cooking teacher was very knowledgeable and explained the ingredients, spices we were using and each dish clearly and perfectly. There was so much delicious food, we had a choice and a say in what we preferred to cook and eat from the start. We all had a great amazing feast at a beautiful table at the end of the class. All the staff were very friendly, it was a wonderful day we’ll all cherish. Highly recommended for a memorable day in Kandy. Thank you Kandyan cooking teachers, staff and helpers!
