What to Expect
Cookly Originals are curated cooking experiences, where passionate local cooks share traditional recipes and personal stories in intimate, vetted settings.
I’m Lua, a top chef. I've hosted about 3000 guests from around the world for 6 years.
I specialize in authentic and healthy home dishes, with high quality ingredients. I can tailor traditional menus to vegetarian/vegan, gluten-free, lactose-intolerant or special diets, etc.
An experience in my cooking class is not just about cooking and eating home food but also about spending time together to talk, share stories about business, traveling experiences, lifestyle and cultures.
