Chef Shailini was an amazing host and is very well versed in the culinary arts. We had a great time making several Mediterranean dishes and desserts. Chef Shailini has so many fascinating stories that she tells over the course of the night and captivates the group very well. I highly recommend anyone interested in tasty food and fun to spend an evening cooking with her. The group had such a great time that we stayed late into the night chatting after enjoying our lovely meals. Thank you Chef!

Fun class with Chef Shailini! She is an intuitive cook, uses "secret ingredients" like smoked paprika in unusual and successful ways, and brings a wealth of world cooking ideas and techniques from her extensive background. And the food was delicious!

This class was a gift to my children, they were both a bit skeptic but had a truly lovely time. The instructor is incredibly warm and deeply knowledgeable and it quickly feels like cooking with your beautiful worldly aunt. The food was incredibly tasty and it was great to see the process and learn about the dishes and the culinary tradition of Nepal. Wonderful class would recommend if you love Nepali food and also as a great introduction to the cuisine. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

The food was amazing, and she created such a beautiful and friendly environment in her home. She was an amazing teacher, was so kind, and had great stories to share. This class was so much fun and was well worth the money!
