This experience was very insightful. We had a wonderful host, Surbhi. SHe was so accommodating as well as the staff. They were smiling and happy to welcome us. They explained the each dish to us before we got to choose what we want to cook. I was able to be with other tourists that also booked for the class. It was great to be with a group who share the same passion in cooking. They were delighted to have us. She hands out detailed recipes also speaks in detail step by step during class. It was fun to get to visit her apartment and family, her husband a great and wise man knows so much about history and geography.
I highly recommend this option! She is amazing, we did not want to leave. We made a friend in Delhi for life! Really tasty food, great convo and very hospitable! Plus her home was clean and tidy!
Surbhi was such a professional teacher. We did first discuss about the menu, she did carefully listen to what I wanted to cook and learn. It was comfortable, I could ask everything about the Indian food / culture and she answered all my questions and explanied everything to me perfectly. The food was reallyyyyyy delicious ! I’m so happy that I did choose her. Surbhi did also take me for shopping, helped me to buy all the perfect spices that I needed and kitchen tools. I will definitely go for another lesson next time I’m in India.
Meeting Surbhi and her family was like visiting old friends! Everything was meticulously planned and well communicated. It was an honour to be invited into their home, and we learnt such a lot about Indian cooking and culture. The dishes that we cooked in such a fun way were delicious, and Surbhi efficiently emailed the recipes, I can’t wait to try them out at home! The class was an unforgettable experience, and the perfect introduction to India and Delhi, an absolute must for any trip. Thank you so much for everything that you did for us.
Surbhi was a wonderful host, who had great patience to explain her menu before you choose what you want to cook. She gives advice and arranges her best alternative solution when things don’t go as planned. She hands out detailed recipes also speaks in detail step by step during class. It was fun to get to visit her apartment and family, her husband a great and wise man knows so much about history and geography. Local market was chaos but interesting place to visit as all markets in India, but going alone with Surbhi was safe and secure. I am so fortunate to choose Surbhi as my host!
