We had a fantastic day with Rustic Colombo Cooking Class.
Not only did we learn lots about the local foods and cooking styles, we chatted about Sri Lanka's history, culture and its people, making for a fascinating - and really fun - day.
Highly recommended to all!

A Truly Authentic Sri Lankan Culinary Journey
I was lucky enough to book a culinary experience with Rustic Cooking Class in Colombo on my trip to Sri Lanka and I’m so glad I made that choice.
I met the wonderful Nim at the markets who took me on a culinary food and culture experience introducing me to a world of amazing ingredients I’d never come across before. Nim is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to food and he took the time to explain the fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices of Sri Lanka, how they were cooked and how they complemented each other.
Once we had decided on our meal options and bought the ingredients we took a tuk tuk to his wonderful home where we set to work preparing an authentic feast. Those dishes became my favourite meal in Sri Lanka which was a big call as I was in the country for a month and tried a lot of food!
What I loved most about the experience though was sitting on the verandah with Nim overlooking the lush gardens enjoying a beer and some great conversation. He’s such a lovely man and so knowledgeable on the food, culture and history of Sri Lanka.
I highly recommend you do yourself a favour and book Rustic Cooking Class. It’s a fabulous authentic experience.

A Fun, Hands-On Cooking Experience with an Amazing Host
My friend Vivienne and I did the cooking class & market tour with the wonderful Gudmonin. The market tour was an authentic experience where we got to learn about the food profiles of Sri Lanka and pick up our ingredients for dinner. Gudmonin was the best guide ever. The cooking class was very hands on and it was the best Sri Lankan food we had during our trip. Thanks to our guide, his knowledge, humour, great conversations and dance moves, this experience is our favourite memory from our time in Sri Lanka.

The Most Authentic Colombo Cooking Class with Market Tour – A Must-Do Experience
If you're looking for the best authentic Colombo cooking class with a market tour, Rustic Colombo Cooking Class & Market Tour is a must. I’ve joined several times and always recommend it.
This is true hands-on Sri Lankan cooking in Colombo, starting with a local market tour before preparing authentic seasonal dishes like jackfruit, lotus roots, wild eggplants, and traditional meat dishes.
You cook using clay pots, traditional tools, and an impressive collection of mortars and pestles, along with a hand operated coconut grater, creating real home style flavours.
By the end, you enjoy a full meal you’ve prepared yourself. One of the most authentic cooking experiences in Colombo, highly recommended!

Rustic cooking class was great!
We had amazing food and Nim was very good with us. We first started from the local market and then went with the riksha to the house, which is in a nice neighborhood near the forest.
We cooked and chatted and had a lovely dinner. Nim was very accommodating and very friendly.
I fully recommend this cooking class.
