Recent reviews of Sri Lankan Cooking Class

  • 5/5 from Dominic Evans, attended May 2026: My fourth time at the school and it was a great experience again for me and my daughter; possibly my favoutite one. Initially I thought the menu did not look as exciting as other options but we went for it and were not disappointed. Whole session was great and we both thought Cece was an outstanding instructor.
  • 5/5 from Julia Zhang, attended Aug 2024: Really enjoyed the class for my birthday. We appreciated the explanations and the food very much!
  • 4/5 from Steven Wibberley, attended Apr 2024: Very enjoyable introduction to Sri Lankan cooking. Good, clear demos but the large group (20 students) meant we didn't get the personal attention I received on a previous course. Some lovely food and plenty of useful hints and tips
  • 5/5 from Matt Norman, attended Jan 2024: Very simple instructions and great tips, thank you so much! I will definitely try to recreate this at home!
  • 5/5 from Lena, attended Jan 2024: Fantastic experience! Although we are seasoned cooks, we learned a lot from Rich and there was not a boring minute! 3 hrs flew by, food was delicious and just 24hrs later we have already cooked the first curry at home. Great atmosphere, lovely venue and the wine offered was great!
  • 4/5 from Shaun Pond, attended Nov 2023: We had a really fun time; the dishes were well explained, and tutors were on hand to check how things were going and to help anyone who needed it. There's a good, relaxed atmosphere at all times (I'm sure the bottomless wine had nothing to do with that). We ended up with a delicious meal; we could have eaten it at the end of the class, but we had a long drive home, so took it with us and reheated it - smashing.
  • 5/5 from Sonja Kalusche, attended Aug 2023: Friendly and supportive teacher, Good atmosphere, I like the music in the background. We learned some news, working with garlic and chili’s. Materials where very good prepared and the description from the teacher have been perfect
